Full details
The Olympia Jesmond table knife is an ideal choice for professional caterers and home hosts who require durable, elegant cutlery that fits seamlessly into both casual and formal dining environments. Crafted from high-quality 18/0 stainless steel with a sophisticated shell motif, this knife offers exceptional longevity and a mirror-like finish; however, users should note that as an 18/0 alloy, it requires proper drying after washing to maintain its luster and prevent water spots.

FAQs
Are these knives dishwasher safe?
Yes, the Olympia Jesmond table knives are dishwasher safe, though we recommend manual drying to maintain the polished finish.
What does 18/0 stainless steel mean?
The 18/0 designation indicates the steel contains 18% chromium and 0% nickel, offering high durability and cost-effectiveness.
How many knives come in a pack?
Each pack contains 12 individual Olympia Jesmond table knives.
Can these be used for heavy-duty cutting?
They are designed for standard table use with cooked foods and are not intended for heavy-duty kitchen prep work.
Will the shell motif fade with washing?
No, the shell motif is stamped into the handle and will not fade with regular cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Water spots appearing on the blade
This is common with 18/0 steel. Hand-dry the knives immediately after the dishwasher cycle finishes rather than letting them air dry.
Surface dullness over time
Use a specialized stainless steel polishing cloth or a non-abrasive metal polish to restore the original mirror finish.
Light surface rust spots
Gently scrub with a soft cloth and a mild stainless steel cleaner, then rinse and dry thoroughly immediately.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Olympia Jesmond knives remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- First Use: Wash the knives thoroughly in warm, soapy water to remove any manufacturing residue before the first service.
- Dishwasher Use: These knives are dishwasher safe, but it is highly recommended to remove them promptly after the cycle ends. Hand-dry immediately to prevent water spotting.
- Storage: Store in a dry cutlery drawer or a dedicated cutlery rack to prevent scratching the polished surface.
- Chemical Avoidance: Avoid soaking the knives in concentrated cleaning agents or acidic solutions for extended periods, as this can dull the high-polish finish.
