Made In 3-Piece Forged Olive Wood Knife Set

The Made In 3-Piece Forged Olive Wood Knife Set is a complete starter kit of essential knives: a chef knife for everyday chopping and slicing, a serrated bread knife for crusty loaves, and a paring knife for small, precise jobs. Made In forges all three in Thiers, France, from single rods of X50CrMoV15 Nitro+ stainless steel, with full tangs and olive wood handles.


What Each Knife Does

  • 8-inch chef knife: Chops vegetables and herbs and slices meat.
  • 9-inch bread knife: Saws through hard crusts without crushing the crumb, and slices cakes and tomatoes.
  • 3.8-inch paring knife: Peels, cores, and trims in the hand or on the board.

Why It Performs

  • Fully forged, full tang: Each knife is shaped from one rod of steel that runs through the handle.
  • Forgiving European steel: Tough, corrosion resistant, and easy to maintain with a honing rod.
  • Matched olive wood handles: A set that looks good on a magnetic strip or in a drawer, with a unique grain on every handle.

Choosing the Right Made In Set

Without the bread knife, the Made In 2-Piece Forged Olive Wood Knife Set pairs the chef and paring knives. Each knife is also sold individually: the Made In 8-inch Forged Olive Wood Chef Knife, the Made In 9-inch Forged Olive Wood Bread Knife, and the Made In 3.8-inch Forged Olive Wood Paring Knife.

    When We Recommend the Made In 3-Piece Forged Olive Wood Knife Set

    Who it Fits Best

    Home cooks who want a complete, matched set of essential knives with wood handles, without a block full of specialty blades.

    Where it Excels

    Covering the three jobs that take most kitchen time: chopping and slicing, crusty bread, and small detail work.

    Professional Comparisons

    Against Made In’s Made In 3-Piece Japanese Damascus Steel Knife Set, this set swaps the Japanese santoku and nakiri for a bread knife and a paring knife, and uses tougher X50CrMoV15 steel with an 18-degree edge rather than VG-10 with a 15-degree edge. Choose this set for a classic European lineup with a bread knife, and the Japanese set for thinner, more precise blades focused on vegetables.

    Chef Feedback

    Trade-offs & Considerations

    Olive wood needs more care than a synthetic handle: hand wash, dry right away, and oil it now and then. The serrated bread knife needs a serration rod or professional service to sharpen.
