A while back we brought you news of a set of chefs knives that had become the most heavily funded on Kickstarter ever.
They were produced by a knife maker called Edge of Belgravia, and the London-based company is at it again with a new set of knives that has again smashed its crowdfunding target.
The Shiroi Hana knife set is made of AUS-10 Japanese steel, with polished 67-layer Damascus blades and a hardness of 58-60 HRC. Currently selling at $299 for a set of six knives, the Shiroi Hana smashed its campaign target of $32,000 in just two and a half hours when it was launched at the end of July, with pledges now standing at just over $430,000 from 1433 backers. Delivery is expected in March 2019.
So, Edge of Belgravia’s knives obviously have their fans, but there was a lot of discussion last time we posted about them, as to whether the handles would make the knives comfortable or even practical to use day in day out.
What do you think: awesome knives or style over substance? Let us know over on our Facebook page.
