5 Piece Knife Sets FAQ
What 5 piece knife sets does YJCookbest offer?
HS3039 (Santoku, ABS handle), HS1028 (chef knife, hollow handle) and a resin-handle patterned-blade set (Kiritsuke, boning), plus HS4003, HS3017 and a wood-handle set whose details we confirm on request.
What knives are in a typical 5 piece knife set?
One of the most common assortments is an 8" chef knife, 8" slicing knife, 8" bread knife, 5" utility knife and 3.5" paring knife, as in our HS1028. Some sets use a 7" Santoku instead of the chef knife (HS3039) or add specialty knives such as Kiritsuke and boning knives.
What blade steel is used in 5 piece knife sets?
Value-priced sets commonly use 3Cr13 stainless steel, with 5Cr15MoV or similar grades in higher-grade lines. The exact grade for each of our models is confirmed in the model specification, so tell us your target grade and market when you request a quote.
How is quality controlled on a 5 piece knife set order?
We agree inspection checkpoints with you before production: materials, in-production checks, a finished-set check against the packing list, and packaging. The approved sample and written specification are the reference. If you need third-party inspection, tell us when you request the quote.
Does a 5 piece set include a knife block?
No. Our 5 piece sets contain five knives. HS3039 also has a separate 6-piece version with a wooden stand, so specify the version you need.
What is the difference between HS3039 and HS1028?
HS3039 has a 7" Santoku and ABS double-steel-head handles. HS1028 has an 8" chef knife and hollow handles. Both include bread, slicing, utility and paring knives.
Can I change the knives in the set?
Yes, as a customization request. Send the knife types, sizes, handle style and estimated quantity, and we will tell you whether an existing model works or new development is needed.
Can you put my logo on all five knives and the packaging?
Logo and packaging customization can be discussed for suitable models. Send artwork, position, model and quantity. The marking method depends on the blade or handle material.
Can I choose a different blade steel or handle material?
Often yes, depending on the model and feasibility. Include steel grade, handle material and finish in your inquiry.
Is the Damascus-pattern set genuine layered Damascus steel?
It is listed as a Damascus steel blade set. If you need to distinguish layered Damascus from a decorative pattern, state it before quotation and request the model-specific material specification.
What is the MOQ for 5 piece knife sets?
The MOQ is 10 sets. Custom branding, packaging or new development may carry different conditions, so send your model and quantity and we will confirm.
Can I mix different 5 piece models in one order?

How long does a custom 5 piece set take?
Custom knife sets typically take about 30–40 days depending on design and volume. The exact schedule is confirmed during project review.
