In the kitchen you face many enemies: slimy garlic, squashy tomatoes, hard potatoes, oily fish, and just one battle warrior, your chef’s knife, to ward them off. A lot of work therefore goes into finding that ideal workhorse or an order of chivalry that would win you battles with lightweight structure and uncompromising sharpness; because you know, all the prep time fun is lost with a sulking knife!
If you have been in the battle of knife vs food, you know most soft steel knives lose edges quickly, and a struggle with a blunt knife makes you feel like a warrior in a losing battle. Thus, for a battle well won, you want the TwinSteel razor sharp knife that stays that way for longer than expected.
Designed by BARE Cookware, TwinSteel Chef’s knife is the tool you need to shine in the kitchen. The Chef’s knife is your entry point into the set of 5 knives provided by this young company founded in 2018. The set of knives it offers includes a Paring knife for chores like peeling fruits and vegetables; a Utility knife for delicate tasks; a Santoku for chopping veggies and dicing fish; and a Serrated knife that manages slicing bread and cutting roasts with equal efficacy. The five-piece set is accompanied by a ceramic sharpener for occasional honing of the knives.
The BARE Cookware knives are made from hard and tough steel with a full tang tapered slightly, for perfect balance, at the bolster. For lasting sharpness – and to keep the premium costs associated with hard steel in control – the forged knives are fused with the Swedish 14C28N steel only at the cutting edge. This ensures the knives stay sharp much longer while keeping the costs in control because of the thoughtful use of ultra-hard steel.

Besides the choice of steel and the manufacturing of these forged knife edges, TwinSteel knives also are sharpened at a precise 15-degree angle – vs 20 degrees of the traditional knives – making these razor-sharp right out of the box. No wonder then, the BARE Cookware claims its knives have a flat grind and are ground thinner towards the tip and cutting edge. This allows the knives easily to “push through hard vegetables like potatoes, just like a splitting axe!”
The TwinSteel knife set of five arrives with a a free ceramic sharpener with built in 15 degree angle guide. The package also includes a 4 kg wooden block that provides magnetic storage for the knives (The magnet block is a separate upsell and available as an add-on). Magnetic on all sides, it can hold up to 12 compatible knives and resist unwanted moisture. Currently available for crowdfunding, the pack of five BARE Cookware knives is available on preorder for EUR 149 (approx. $160) with a free ceramic sharpener, while a Chef’s knife will set you back EUR 59 (approx. $65). For that introductory price, it’s a no-brainer!
