1) Carving Knife - 9" blade, perfect for all carving and slicing tasks

2) Carving Fork - 2" prongs, 7" neck, ideal for gripping, holding & serving.

Walking you the process, with each step demonstrated live by our instructor, you will learn the skills and techniques necessary to produce a stunning carving set.  This completed set will prove to be the ultimate statement piece, suitable for a lifetime of use.
