Roselli kitchen knife: kitchen knives from Finland

Reasons to choose Roselli kitchen knives

Roselli kitchen knives are forged from steel developed by Heimo Roselli himself: UHC steel, or Ultra High Carbon steel. Thanks to the high carbon content, the knives are very hard, allowing them to be sharpened very thin and therefore razor-sharp. Roselli also offers kitchen knives with standard carbon steel, for those who love traditional steel that patinas beautifully.

Important though: carbon steel requires some maintenance and is less resistant to rust. But this material more than makes up for it with its impeccable cutting performance. Take care when cutting, though! These kitchen knives are not suitable for very hard ingredients or frozen vegetables. The blade is too thin for that. The knives are easy to sharpen yourself, but Roselli is also happy to help you with their free sharpening service. You only pay shipping costs to Finland.

The handles are made of curly birch: a beautifully flamed birch wood that is typically Finnish. This material feels natural, offers great grip and only gets more character with age. Each knife is perfectly balanced and comfortable to hold, even during long cooking sessions.

Roselli product types

Roselli has long been known for its high-quality and functional knives; a reputation that the kitchen line also more than lives up to. These knives bring together the best of both worlds: artisanal craftsmanship from Scandinavia and refined cutting performance with clear Japanese influences. This is reflected not only in the minimalist design, but especially in the shape and function of the knives.

The range includes the gyutoh and the santoku: two iconic Japanese models loved for their precision and versatility. Roselli has translated these traditional shapes into their own style, resulting in knives that feel both elegant and powerful. Alongside these Japanese influences, Roselli also offers unique designs such as a Chinese chef's knife and more universal models for everyday use. These are knives for cooking enthusiasts looking for performance, character and a touch of the outdoors in their kitchens.

History of the Roselli knives

Roselli's story began in rural Finland. Heimo Roselli, who grew up fishing and hunting, became frustrated by bad-quality knives. So he decided to do it better himself. For years, he experimented with steels and techniques. The result: masterfully forged knives that excel in durability, sharpness and simplicity. That same passion for quality can be seen in every Roselli kitchen knife. A perfect blend of tradition and performance.
