The Kazoku x Dennis Huwaë Knife Set is a complete premium knife set from Kazoku’s chef series, developed in collaboration with chef Dennis Huwaë. This set combines four carefully selected knives, forming a comprehensive toolkit for everyday kitchen and chef tasks — from chopping and slicing to precision work. Each knife is crafted from ZA‑18 stainless steel, offering excellent edge retention, easy maintenance, and durability for daily use.

  • Hand-finished by Meesterslijpers experts for out-of-the-box sharp performance
  • Premium ZA‑18 stainless steel — exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance
  • Chef-developed with Dennis Huwaë — ergonomic balance and chef-friendly cutting performance
  • Pre-order item — currently not immediately available but can be reserved
  • Complete set for all-round kitchen tasks

Material & construction

The blade is forged in Seki, the knife capital of Japan. Made of high-quality ZA18 steel, sheathed in 62 layered damask folds that give each knife a unique, beautiful pattern. The knife is razor-sharp, stays sharp for a long time and is easy to resharpen on its own.

Use & care

Use this set for virtually all kitchen cutting tasks: vegetables, meat, fish, and precision work. ZA‑18 steel is stainless but should still be hand washed with warm water and mild soap to prevent water spots or staining. Dry immediately to avoid oxidation. Maintain the edge with Japanese whetstones or a fine strop

Who it’s for

  • Fans of chef-inspired knives with premium steel and craftsmanship
  • Home cooks and professionals seeking a single set covering most kitchen tasks
