Product Information
Full details
The Olympia Harley Steak Knives are ideal for professional catering environments, restaurants, and busy households that prioritize durability and efficiency. These knives offer the distinct advantage of a serrated blade that retains its sharpness longer by preventing direct contact between the edge and the dinner plate. While their 18/0 stainless steel construction ensures long-term resilience, users should be aware that this specific grade of steel may require thorough drying after cleaning to prevent surface spotting or corrosion.

FAQs
Are these knives dishwasher safe?
Yes, they are suitable for professional and domestic dishwashers, provided you dry them promptly to prevent spotting.
What does 18/0 stainless steel mean?
18/0 stainless steel contains 18% chromium and 0% nickel. It is magnetic and highly durable, though it requires diligent drying to prevent surface rust.
Can I sharpen these at home?
Serrated knives require specialized tools to sharpen effectively. Due to their design, they typically maintain their edge for a long time without needing manual sharpening.
What is the total length of each knife?
Each knife in this 12-pack measures 225mm in total length.
Do these match other cutlery sets?
The Harley design is a classic aesthetic. While it is designed to match the Olympia Harley range, its neutral finish allows it to complement most silver-toned cutlery.
Troubleshooting
Water spots appearing on the blades
These are likely mineral deposits. Polish the knives with a soft microfiber cloth and ensure they are dried immediately after the wash cycle.
Blade feels dull when cutting
Check the serrated teeth for any lodged food particles. If the blade remains dull, the steel has reached the end of its life, as serrated blades are generally not designed for home sharpening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal longevity, avoid leaving these knives soaking in standing water. Although stainless steel is robust, prolonged exposure to acidic food remnants and moisture can compromise the finish.
- Always wash immediately after use using a mild detergent.
- Ensure the knives are thoroughly dried using a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
- If using a commercial dishwasher, ensure the cutlery is placed in a way that prevents scratching the high-polish finish.
- Store in a dry environment and utilize magnetic racks if possible to keep them organized and protected.
