In its ongoing commitment to innovation and excellence, Arcos has joined forces with chef José Andrés, one of the most influential figures in the international culinary scene, to launch a professional knife collection that combines tradition, precision, and design.
José Andrés by Arcos: When Spanish Craftsmanship Meets Global Cuisine
The new José Andrés by Arcos collection is designed to accompany both professional chefs and home cooks seeking reliable, durable tools with purpose. Each piece has been crafted with functionality in mind, without compromising on beauty or heritage.
The series includes five essential knives: 8” Chef, 7” Santoku, 8” Bread, 6” Utility, and 4” Paring, all forged from exclusive NITRUM® stainless steel, enriched with nitrogen for increased durability and edge retention. The handle, made from European Holm Oak, pays tribute to one of the noblest woods of the Iberian landscape, adding a touch of warmth and character to every cut.
A Tribute to the Kitchen as a Place of Gathering
“My team and I use Arcos knives every day, both at home and in our restaurants. They are tough, reliable, and maintain their edge even under the most demanding use,” says José Andrés, chef and founder of the José Andrés Group. His involvement in this collaboration is not only professional but deeply personal—a celebration of his roots and his commitment to accessible, human, and generous cuisine.
A Collection Built to Last
In addition to the main series, Arcos is also launching a Steak Knife Set, available in red, green, and blue—a vibrant and functional nod to those who enjoy cutting meat or fish with ease and style.
All products in the collection are made in Albacete, Spain, come in premium packaging, and include a 10-year warranty.
A New Chapter in the Arcos Legacy
With nearly three centuries of history, Arcos continues to lead the way in the world of cutlery, proving that tradition and innovation are not opposites, but allies. This new collection is a testament to that—a bridge between Spanish artisanal excellence and the cosmopolitan vision of one of the world’s most influential chefs.
