All blades are handwash only to preserve edge life and the natural finish of the wood block.

What comes in the Greeley 14-piece set and how will it replace scattered cutlery?

The set includes essential knives for virtually every food-prep task, plus sharpening and shears to maintain performance. Instead of mismatched blades, you get a coordinated group that stores neatly in an acacia block and presents well on a countertop.

• One 8-inch chef's knife for chopping and multi-purpose tasks
• One 8-inch slicer for roasts and large cuts
• One 5-inch utility knife for sandwiches and small produce
• One 3.5-inch paring and one 3-inch bird's beak for precise peeling and shaping
• Sharpening steel and kitchen shears included for maintenance
• Acacia wood block for secure, organized storage

How are the blades made and how does that affect sharpness?

Greeley knives are forged from high-carbon stainless steel with a full-tang design, giving each blade strength and a consistent edge. Forge construction and full tang improve durability under regular use and help maintain a reliable edge when sharpened properly.

• Forged high-carbon stainless steel for strength and edge retention
• Full-tang construction for balance and sturdiness
• Use sharpening steel regularly to maintain a keen cutting edge

Are the handles comfortable and safe for long prep sessions?

The handles are triple-riveted to the full tang, providing a stable, balanced grip and reduced wobble during cutting. Their ergonomic shape is intended to fit natural hand positions, helping with control whether you’re mincing herbs or slicing dense vegetables.

• Triple-riveted handles secure the blade to the handle for durability
• Ergonomic profile supports a comfortable grip and improved control
• Black finish coordinates with modern kitchen styling

How should I care for the knives and the acacia wood block?

To preserve the steel and the wood, handwashing is recommended for every blade and the block should be wiped with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid dishwashers and prolonged soaking to prevent corrosion, handle looseness, or wood warping.

• Hand wash knives immediately after use; dry thoroughly
• Wipe the acacia wood block with a damp cloth; avoid soaking
• Use the included sharpening steel to realign edges; professional sharpening occasionally keeps blades optimal

Who is this set for: The Martha Stewart Greeley 14-piece set is aimed at home cooks who want a full, coordinated knife collection that covers everyday tasks and special meals. It’s a fit for those who value forged blade construction, comfortable riveted handles, and a sturdy wooden block for safe countertop storage—ideal for new homeowners, busy kitchens, and anyone upgrading from individual or mismatched knives.
