serie josé andrés
The taste of authenticity.
The complete
series
Six knives forged from Nitrum® steel. Each with its own purpose. All with the same level of excellence.
The soul behind the edge: José Andrés
More than an internationally renowned chef and founder of José Andrés Group, José Andrés is a true ambassador of Spanish culture and gastronomy beyond Spain’s borders. This collection is born from a shared pride in the "Made in Spain" seal: the chef’s global experience joins almost 300 years and nine generations of Arcos’ artisanal history in Albacete, together proving that the craftsmanship of our land can compete at the highest level worldwide.
A tribute to our roots:
"Cutting is sharing"
Beyond technique, this partnership is built on a human and generous philosophy under the motto "Cutting is sharing", understanding cooking as a space for connection.
This bond with the land is uniquely reflected in the handle made from natural holm oak wood. As the tree of the dehesa that sustains the Iberian pig — which José Andrés passionately promotes around the world —, each knife becomes a living tribute to our roots. A symbolic way to carry a piece of Spanish land and culture in your hand with every cut.
José Andrés.
A life
at the stove.
Born in Asturias and recognized as one of the most influential chefs in the world, José Andrés has brought Spanish cuisine to the great stages of the United States and the world. The series that bears his name is born from that same philosophy: precision, character and the finest steel from Albacete.
EVERY HANDLE,
A ONE-OF-A-KIND PIECE.
The natural holm oak wood handle is not just an aesthetic choice: it is a noble material that brings warmth, character and an ergonomic grip that naturally adapts to the hand.
As it is natural wood, each piece has unique grain patterns and tones. No two are alike. Because the best knives, like the best ingredients, are never exactly the same.
LIGHT. PRECISE.
EFFORTLESS.
Forged from a single piece of NITRUM® stainless steel, the knives in the José Andrés Series combine strength and balance with a weight designed for prolonged use without fatigue. From the paring knife for the most delicate tasks to the ham knife for perfect slices: a complete collection for those who treat every ingredient with the respect it deserves.
THE EDGE
THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING
The Silk Edge is the result of artisanal sharpening carried out by master knifemakers. An exceptionally smooth cutting sensation that can be felt from the very first use and lasts over time. When the tool is perfect, cooking becomes something else.
Why the series
José Andrés
Three reasons not to need another knife.
Exclusive nitrogen stainless steel by Arcos. A more resistant edge and better corrosion performance than conventional steel.
Made from holm oak wood, each handle has a unique grain, connecting the knife with Spain’s rich culinary heritage. This living material evolves over time, enhancing the character of the knife and providing an ergonomic, secure grip for superior control.
Blade, tang and bolster forged from a single piece of steel. Greater strength, better balance in the hand and durability that only traditional forging can provide.
Cooking that changes the world.
"The best knife is the one you have in your hand when you need it."
José Andrés is the most influential Spanish chef in the United States. Founder of World Central Kitchen, Michelin-starred chef and ambassador of Spanish cuisine around the world. His partnership with Arcos is no coincidence: he shares the same obsession with detail, tradition and excellence.
