MAC Original 4-Piece Knife Set

The largest MAC Original set adds a carving knife to the everyday three, so one purchase covers prep, fish and the holiday roast. It includes the 9-inch wide carving knife, the 6.5-inch chef and utility knife, the 6.75-inch fillet knife and the 4-inch paring knife.

The carving knife has a wide, thin blade that keeps slices of ham and turkey even. The utility knife and the parer do the daily board work, and the fillet knife handles fish. Every knife has the rounded tip and hanging hole of the Original Series, which makes the set easy to hang on a rack.

For fewer pieces, compare the 3-piece set and the 2-piece set. Our guide to knife shapes explains each shape.

    Keeping the Edge

    MAC steel is harder than most German and American kitchen knife steel, so the edge is maintained with ceramic rather than a steel rod. As a rule of thumb, we use ceramic on steels greater than 60 Rockwell hardness. The MAC black ceramic honing rod and the white ceramic rod touch up the edge between sharpenings, and the MAC Togu sharpener resets the factory angle on a ceramic wheel.


    Care

    • Wash by hand with warm, soapy water and dry the knife at once. Do not put it in a dishwasher.
    • MAC steel is stainless but not immune to spotting; do not leave the blade wet, soaking or in contact with acidic food.
    • Cut on wood or plastic boards. Keep the edge away from bone, frozen food and hard shells.
    • Warranty claims are handled by MAC directly.
