Questions?

We’re Here To Help.

Explore our FAQs for key info, quick answers, and expert tips.

Find Out More

What steel is this knife series made from?

Most Gladiator Series blades are made from German X50CRMOV15 Stainless Steel (also known as 1.4116 steel). A popular steel in professional kitchens, it’s lauded for its long term reliability, durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. While softer than high-end Japanese steels, German steel is far less prone to corrosion, chipping, and sharpens much more easily. 

Some more heavy-duty Gladiator Series knives (including the Venator, Obliterator, and Annihilator Cleaver), are made from 7CR17MOV Steel. We use this steel to engineer thicker, heavier blades that are equally resistant to impact, corrosion, wear and tear.

What material is the handle?

All Gladiator Series knife handles except those included in block sets are made from G10 (also known as Garolite). A high-pressure composite G10 handle is an industrial strength, premium material which provides an indestructible build that's both comfortable and reliable for prolonged use in any setting. Gladiator Series knife block set handles are made from ABS Polymer, a durable, non-porous material that withstands the toughest kitchen environments. This combination ensures each knife is built to last, even with long-term, daily use.

How sharp are the knives out of the box, and how easy are they to maintain?

Every knife comes with a razor-sharp 16-18° edge for effortless cutting. Maintenance is simple: regular honing with a honing rod and occasional sharpening will keep the knives performing like new for years to come.

How should I care for and maintain my knives?

To care for your knives, hand wash them with warm water and mild soap, then dry thoroughly before putting them back in the block. Avoid soaking the knives or placing them in the dishwasher, as this can cause damage over time.

How often will I need to sharpen my knives and how can I do it?

Depending on how often you use them, and the work you do with each, the frequency of sharpening is variable. However, the edge is conditioned to last and be sharpened easily at home. Regular honing will keep your blade aligned, and occasional sharpening with a whetstone or other quality sharpening device will ensure professional standard performance for the long term.

Are Gladiator Series knife sets suitable for professional use?

Yes, these sets are built to professional standards with superior-quality materials. They are also NSF certified, meaning they meet the strict safety and quality standards required for professional kitchens. Whether you're a home cook or a professional chef, these knives provide the durability and performance needed for demanding culinary tasks.

What does NSF certified mean?

NSF certification ensures the knives meet the strict standards for public health, safety, and performance in professional kitchens. It guarantees the knives are safe to use in commercial food preparation environments.

What is Dalstrong D3™?

Dalstrong D3™ refers to our advanced sharpening method, which sharpens, aligns, and hones the blades meticulously to achieve peak sharpness without affecting durability. This sharpening technique ensures exceptional cutting performance and long-lasting sharpness.

What is Lionshield™ treatment?

Lionshield™ is an advanced thermal and cryogenic process that enhances the blade's resistance to rust, corrosion, and chipping. This treatment prolongs the life of the blade, ensuring it can withstand years of rigorous use.

Can I put these knives in the dishwasher?

While these knives can handle the dishwasher, we strongly recommend hand washing instead to ensure maximum longevity. Dishwashers can dull the blades and may cause damage to both the knives and the handles over time. After hand washing, make sure to dry the knives thoroughly before putting them back in the block.

What warranties or guarantees do I have?

Dalstrong offers a 70 day 100% money back guarantee—the longest in the industry. If you’re not satisfied, you can return your purchase for a full refund. We also offer a lifetime warranty against defective products.
