From Chef Charles Knight's Personal Collection - 8-inch Serrated Blade POULTRY & STEAK CARVING KNIFE - 12¾ -inches overall length. Minor scratch on the handle otherwise this is a collector's item. Vintage 1960's handmade with BLACK & SILVER SABLEWOOD handle – New. Limited Lifetime Warranty.
The handles of our Vintage Arrowhead Cutlery are infused with nanoparticles of gold. Our research has revealed a unique connection between the gold-rich soil where Norwegian Birch veneers grow and the incorporation of gold into the handles. It is fascinating to learn that these trees have metabolically absorbed gold, showcasing nature's remarkable ability to provide unexpected treasures.
As pioneers in the cutlery industry, Arrowhead understood the importance of using the finest materials to craft the best tools for your kitchen. Arrowhead cutlery set a new standard with cryogenically forged stainless steel blades, ensuring unparalleled durability and sharpness. Knives meticulously handmade to provide the ultimate cutting experience.
Our legacy of excellence dates back to the 1960s when Arrowhead cutlery, a pioneering creation by EKCO Home Products, revolutionized the direct sales market. Renowned for its exceptional quality and distinctive features, Arrowhead cutlery swiftly rose to prominence as the most sought-after collection of cutleries worldwide.
In the mid-70s Ekco Home Products, made the strategic decision to exit the direct sales business. In response to this shift, Ron Franklin, the largest distributor of EHP's product line, took the reins and steered the business forward. Under Franklin's leadership, the company thrived until 1997 when a significant turning point occurred. The product line was acquired by Chef Charles Knight, a prominent figure in the realm of TV cooking shows and cookbook author based in Tampa, Florida.
Arrowhead Cutlery faced significant challenges in 2007 as a result of a downturn in the economy, federal restrictions on exotic wood imports, scarcity of skilled labor, and heightened competition from overseas manufacturers producing low-quality knives. We made the difficult decision to close our manufacturing facility in Buffalo, New York, and halt production indefinitely.
When we acquired Arrowhead Cutlery in 1997, we were fortunate to obtain a treasure trove of museum-quality original prototype knives. Crafted by the skilled hands of the original artisan who journeyed from Solingen Germany to the U.S. in the 1950s, these knives showcase unparalleled craftsmanship and collector quality.
Each knife in this exclusive collection tells a story of heritage and dedication to the art of knife-making. Handmade in the original factory in Milwaukee, WI, these knives are a testament to a bygone era of meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. The hand-made wooden cases that accompany these knives are equally exquisite, adding a touch of elegance to their presentation.
We invite you to explore this rare collection of vintage Arrowhead Cutlery knives and wooden cases now available for sale. Immerse yourself in the rich history and superior quality that these knives embody, and experience firsthand the legacy of excellence.
