Why this table knive earns its place
The Metropole collection is built on architectural principle: clean lines, purposeful proportions, and surface that invites the hand. These table knives exemplify that design language. At 245 mm long, they're substantial—the blade substantial enough to cut protein, the handle weighted for control and confidence. They're contemporary in profile without being severe; elegant without being delicate.
The gold finish sets them apart from standard silver cutlery. Applied to 18/10 stainless steel and polished 500 times for depth, it delivers a warm, complex lustre that photographs beautifully and catches light across a table. It's the visual signal that this establishment cares about the complete dining experience. Each knife weighs approximately 85 g—substantial enough that diners register quality the moment they lift one.
Built for cutting—protein, vegetables, plated garnishes—with a blade that won't flex under pressure. The edge will hold through service after service. Dishwasher safe throughout, they slot into any commercial kitchen's rotation without special handling.
