The Cookit 15-piece set puts a full run of kitchen knives, six steak knives, scissors and a sharpener into one pine block for a household kitchen.
A santoku next to the chef knife makes it easy to learn where each fits, since a santoku's straighter edge suits a different cutting motion.
How many steak knives are included, and are they serrated?
Six steak knives, each with a 5 inch serrated blade, are part of the full 15 piece count. That is enough to set a table for six without pulling a different knife from elsewhere in the block for the table.
Will the handles work for a left-handed cook?
Cookit states that the ABS handles are suitable for left-handed use, so the set is not built around a right-hand-only grip. The triple riveted construction stays the same regardless of which hand is holding the knife day to day at the counter.
What is the block made of?
The block is pine wood, weighing 3.3 pounds on its own, before any knives are seated in it. That weight helps keep a full 15 piece set from tipping or sliding when a knife is pulled out or returned to its slot.
Can the knives go in the dishwasher?
Cookit recommends hand washing instead, to extend the life of the knives. Dishwasher heat and detergent can dull edges and pit blades faster than hand washing does, so this is a maintenance step worth building into routine cleanup after cooking.
What is included for sharpening?
The set comes with an 8 inch steel sharpener, so upkeep does not require a separate purchase. Regular honing with the included steel, combined with sharpening as needed, keeps the stainless steel blades closer to their factory edge for longer use.
From classic mother sauces to dishes from 30 countries, plus soups, salads, entrees, and breakfast.
Skip the generic holiday fluff. Elevate your culinary leverage with heavy-duty cutlery crafted for high-performance prep work. 15% off all knife collections, from foundational utility blades to master-tier chef sets.

This 5-piece cast iron cookware set covers stovetop searing, oven braising, and griddle cooking in one collection, all cast iron and made in the USA. It's built for a kitchen that wants one cookware set to handle the stovetop, the oven, the grill, and the campfire without swapping pans.
Use the two skillets for stovetop searing and browning, the Dutch oven for braises and oven roasts, and the griddle for pancakes, eggs, or flatbreads. The whole set works on the stovetop, in the oven, on the grill, over a campfire, and on induction cooktops, so it travels from a weeknight dinner to a weekend camping trip without needing a second set of cookware.
What's included in this set?
The 5 pieces are a 5-quart Dutch oven, a 10.25-inch skillet, a matching 10.25-inch self-basting lid, an 8-inch skillet, and a 10.5-inch round griddle, five pieces in total. All are cast iron, made in the USA, and finished in black.
Is this set safe for the oven?
Yes, every piece in this cast iron set is oven safe. That makes it suited to starting a dish on the stovetop and finishing it in the oven, such as searing meat in the Dutch oven and then braising it, without switching pans.
Can I wash it in the dishwasher?
No. This set is not dishwasher safe. Hand wash and dry the cast iron promptly after each use, then rub it with a light coat of cooking oil to protect the seasoning rather than running it through a dishwasher cycle.
How much does the set weigh?
The full 5-piece set weighs 28 lbs total, and the package measures 15 x 14.15 x 7.9 inches. That weight is typical for cast iron and is part of what gives it the even heat retention the material is known for.
Can I use this on an induction cooktop?
Yes. The set works on the stovetop, in the oven, on the grill, over a campfire, and on induction cooktops, which makes it one of the more versatile cookware options for a kitchen that has switched to an induction range.
How do I care for the seasoning?
Hand wash and dry the cast iron promptly after use, then rub it with a light coat of cooking oil. Avoid soaking it or leaving it wet. The seasoning is a natural, easy release finish that improves with regular, consistent use.
What is the griddle used for?
The 10.5-inch round griddle is suited to pancakes, eggs, or flatbreads, giving you a flat cooking surface alongside the two skillets and the Dutch oven. Together, the 5 pieces cover most of the stovetop and oven cooking a kitchen needs.
