Delivery Information

Price Match

The Olympia Buckingham steak knife is a serrated table knife designed for commercial dining environments where guests regularly order steak, grilled meats, or thicker-crust dishes such as pizza. Made from 18/10 stainless steel, it offers better corrosion resistance than 18/0 alternatives, which matters in a busy operation running multiple machine wash cycles per service.

In everyday use, serrated steak knives take considerably more punishment than standard table knives. The Buckingham's blade profile handles repeated cutting without requiring sharpening, and the shaped handle provides a practical grip that works across a wide range of diners. For front-of-house teams, that consistency matters — poorly balanced or lightweight steak knives generate complaints that well-chosen ones simply don't.

  • Serrated blade cuts cleanly through steak and pizza without excessive pressure
  • 18/10 stainless steel construction resists corrosion through repeated commercial dishwashing
  • Ergonomic handle shape comfortable across extended sittings
  • Sold in a pack of 12, suited to smaller covers or as a top-up quantity

The pack size of 12 is worth considering against your cover count and table-turn rate. Smaller operations or those adding to an existing set will find this a practical quantity. Higher-volume sites with multiple sittings per service may want to order several packs to maintain sufficient cutlery in circulation without pressure on wash-up.

This knife is a straightforward choice for casual dining restaurants, gastro pubs, steakhouses, and any venue where a dedicated steak knife is standard on the table. If you're equipping a larger operation or want guidance on quantities, we're happy to help you work through what's needed.

Frequently asked questions

How many packs do I need for my cover count?

A rough guide is to hold two to three times your cover count in steak knives to allow for service, washing, and drying cycles without running short. A 40-cover restaurant running two sittings per evening would typically want at least 80 to 100 knives in circulation, so four or more packs of 12 would be a sensible starting point. If you're unsure, it's worth talking through your service pattern before ordering.

Is 18/10 stainless steel significantly better than 18/0 for commercial use?

For most front-of-house cutlery, yes. The higher nickel content in 18/10 stainless steel provides meaningfully better resistance to rust and surface staining, particularly relevant when knives are machine-washed multiple times daily and stored in damp conditions. Over time, 18/0 cutlery tends to show corrosion at the blade edges sooner, increasing replacement frequency.

Are these knives suitable for a casual dining or pub environment as well as a formal restaurant?

Yes. The Buckingham's style sits comfortably in both casual and mid-market dining settings — it's practical enough for a busy pub kitchen and presentable enough for a restaurant cover. It is a standard commercial profile rather than a premium fine-dining knife, so operators seeking a more formal table setting may want to consider a higher-specification pattern.
