Vanquish Series
24-Piece Knife Block Set

The Vanquish Series is engineered from premium German X50CRMOV15 stainless steel, renowned for its durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. This steel holds a sharp edge, sharpens quickly, and is built to withstand daily wear and tear, making it a trusted choice for both home cooks and professional chefs.

Yes, the Vanquish Series is NSF certified, meaning it meets the rigorous safety and performance standards required for professional kitchens, and is engineered with German X50CRMOV15 stainless steel—a  favorite among pro cooks. However, while it performs well in commercial settings, it’s specifically designed to elevate the home cooking experience. Its budget-friendly price point, ergonomic design, and versatile performance make it an ideal knife for home cooks, culinary students and early-career chefs.

The Vanquish Series features a durable POM (polyoxymethylene) handle, a thermoplastic material known for its high impact resistance, light weight and long-lasting performance. The ergonomic design ensures a comfortable, secure grip, even during extended use, while the stainless steel end cap adds balance and style.

Every Vanquish knife is sharpened to a precise 16-18° edge using Dalstrong’s advanced D3™ sharpening process. This razor-sharp edge offers the perfect balance between sharpness and durability. The German steel’s composition allows for easy re-sharpening at home, and regular honing will keep the blade performing at its best.

To maintain peak performance, hand wash your knife with warm water and mild soap, then dry thoroughly before storing it in its ABS sheath or ash wood block. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or placing the knife in the dishwasher, as harsh conditions can dull the blade and damage the handle.

 Sharpening frequency depends on usage. The German X50CRMOV15 steel holds its edge well, but regular honing helps maintain sharpness. Occasional sharpening with a whetstone or quality sharpener will keep your knife in top condition, even with daily use.

Dalstrong D3™ (Diamond Detailing) sharpening is a precision process that grinds, polishes, and hones each blade to achieve extreme sharpness. This technique, inspired by traditional Japanese Honbazuke methods, ensures a scalpel-like edge that withstands daily use, providing long-lasting performance.

Dalstrong’s LionShield™ treatment is an advanced thermal and cryogenic process that strengthens the blade’s microstructure. This treatment enhances hardness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention, ensuring your Vanquish knife remains sharp, durable, and reliable over time.

Yes, the Vanquish Series is NSF certified, meeting strict public health and safety standards required for professional food preparation environments. This certification guarantees that the knives are safe, durable, and suitable for both commercial and home kitchens.

Yes, every individually bought Vanquish knife comes with a sheath for safe storage and transport. Additionally, our sets include a handcrafted ash wood storage block with an aluminum alloy rim, providing both functionality and a sleek, modern aesthetic.
