Knife Sets
Choosing a knife set is easiest when you focus on the knives you will actually use. Many boxed sets are built around a target price or piece count, which may include extra knives or accessories that don't fit your cooking style. At Knife Merchant, we prefer practical sets that give you the core tools you need while still offering the savings that comes from buying multiple knives together.
If you do not see the exact set you want, we can help you build one. Call or email us and we will be happy to build a custom knife set based on your budget, preferred brand, and the types of prep work you do most often.
If you are specifically looking for a set with countertop storage, browse our selection of Knife Block Sets.

Miyabi Evolution 3-Piece Starter Cook Set
Precision Refined: The Miyabi Evolution Starter Set for Elite Performance The Apex of Hybrid Engineering For the chef who demands the surgical precision of Japanese blades without sacrificing the robust 'workhorse' feel of Western cutlery, the Miyabi Evolution 8-inch Chef Knife is the definitive answer. Crafted in Seki, Japan, the heart of samurai sword-making, this set represents a significant leap in metallurgical technology. The core is constructed from FC61 fine carbide steel, which undergoes a specialized FRIODUR® ice-hardening process. The result is a staggering 61 Rockwell Hardness (HRC) that maintains a scalpel-like edge significantly longer than standard stainless steel, yet remains remarkably resilient against chipping. A Masterclass in Maintenance and Mobility Even the finest Japanese steel requires expert maintenance. This 'Gold Standard' starter set includes the legendary F. Dick EuroCut 12-inch honing steel. Made in Germany, this regular-cut steel is specifically chosen to align the 50/50 bevel of the Miyabi Evolution, ensuring your edge remains optimized for every shift. To protect your investment, we have paired these essentials with the Knife Merchant 8-Slot Knife Bag.

Miyabi Koh 10-Piece Magnetic Knife Block Set
The Art of the Edge: Precision Meets Performance in Every Slice Where Samurai Heritage Meets Modern Culinary Science Owning a Miyabi Koh knife isn't just about kitchen utility; it’s about wielding a piece of Japanese history refined by German engineering. The Miyabi Koh 10-Piece Magnetic Knife Block Set represents the pinnacle of this collaboration. Each blade is a testament to the artisans of Seki, Japan, the legendary home of swordmaking. By utilizing revolutionary FC61 fine carbide stainless steel, Miyabi has created a blade that achieves a staggering 61 Rockwell hardness, ensuring that the scalpel-like sharpness you experience on day one remains consistent through years of heavy prep work. The Science of the FRIODURx2® Blade What sets the Koh series apart is the proprietary FRIODURx2® ice-hardening process. This isn't just a marketing term; it is a sophisticated cryogenic treatment that optimizes the steel's molecular structure. The result is a blade with exceptional corrosion resistance, superior toughness, and a degree of edge retention that Western knives simply cannot match. Every blade in this set features a mirror-polished finish with a sandblasted 'Katana' edge, a visual nod to the traditional Japanese sword, ensuring your kitchen aesthetic is as sharp as your cuts. Ergonomics Designed for Mastery The Koh series introduces a preferred Japanese-style octagonal handle made from durable Pakkawood. This shape provides a secure, comfortable grip that caters to both traditional Japanese precision work and aggressive Western-style chopping. Accented with a distinctive silver mosaic pin, these handles are as beautiful as they are functional. Balanced perfectly to reduce hand fatigue, this set allows professional chefs and home enthusiasts alike to work through large volumes of produce with effortless grace. The included bamboo easel magnetic block not only saves space but protects your investment by preventing edge-to-surface contact. Learn More$999.95
