To The Table

Comfort and use are at the heart of the design process at Robert Welch Designs, when creating pieces or patterns to complement any table setting. Each piece of cutlery is rigorously tested – the weight, shape, style and finish all combining to enhance the overall dining experience.

Each range has its own look and feel and finding the most suitable design requires as much consideration as the menus themselves.

Just as each piece possesses a timeless appeal, care has been taken to create strong and durable products that can withstand the rigours of a busy hospitality environment.

Baguette Vintage Baguette Vintage Full Vintage or Bright Finish 18/10 stainless steel 3.5mm COLLECTION

The Baguette style of cutlery is perhaps one of the most familiar in fine dining settings. A classic shape with heritage connotations, it has a good weight: traditionally the sign of quality that lends itself well to this collection. Its tumbled finish (VN) gives a unique visual lustre. Baguette is also available in bright finish (BR).

As with other collections, comfort in the hand is a Robert Welch signature. The thickness of the handle gently tapers towards the tip, keeping the weight centrally balanced.

Radford Radford Bright or Satin Finish 18/10 stainless steel

Considered by some to be ‘perfection in the hand’, the Radford collection is perhaps the most classic of the Robert Welch designs – and the most extensive.

A modern translation of the Georgian style, with long tines and blades and a classic heel. Yet the range has a softness and ergonomic curve which is both classic and contemporary at the same time.

The Radford collection complements every dining experience. This versatility makes it a popular choice while the extensive range, which includes specialist dining pieces, offers maximum flexibility. This pattern is available in bright finish (BR) and satin (SA).

01 Sharpening and Honing

03 Honing your blade is one of the main aspects of good knife care, Designed for simple, quick and easy maintenance. When used regularly although it often gets confused with sharpening. Sharpening is taking the hand-held sharpener, with its ceramic sharpening wheel, hones any away material, whilst honing is the straightening out of an already-sharp plain-edged kitchen knife back to razor sharpness in a few strokes. The blade edge which has become bent out of alignment and therefore blunt. tapered groove will restore the blade to its superior sharpness.

The honing of any kitchen knife is essential to preserve its performance The sharpening steel is the traditional choice for professional chefs around over time. We believe little and often is best when it comes to maintenance the world. Like the hand-held sharpener, this steel hones bent blades back and recommend honing your knives every four to six weeks, depending on into position. Using a steel requires training and skill to maintain a use. Serrated knives need less maintenance but should be sharpened every consistent edge angle. one to two years by a professional.
