This is the second three-piece set from the second overabladeance that I have finished. It is what you might call “vegan” set, because there are no animal parts involved in this one, it is made purely from plant material – black locust and coconut shell.

It is more or less a direct, slightly simplified, follow-up of the experimental knife set. This time the surfaces are not oiled but sealed with epoxy and buffed, just like with the jatoba&bone set from yesterday.
I hope to be able to put all three sets on the shoppe tomorrow. More pictures are, again, on Instagram.
They are all lovely, but I don’t know what to make with this set. It’s no critique, it’s just a personal thing. The first set is the one I would choose, Very Hobbity. The second one has some very clear lines, a classic aesthetic. I’m not sure where these fit. They’re original Charly’s.
@Giliell, a lot about knives is about personal preferences. Any thin piece of metal with an edge will do most jobs in the kitchen just fine.
Hobbity did not occur to me but now that you mention it, a knife bloc like that would not look amiss at Bag End kitchen as depicted in the movies.
