Product Description
The Sola Lotus steak knife is a contemporary piece from Sola's Lotus cutlery range, designed for front-of-house table settings in restaurants, hotels, and similar hospitality environments. With its clean angular profile and high-shine finish, it sits comfortably within a modern or minimalist cover layout without looking out of place alongside more traditional tableware.
Manufactured from stainless steel, these knives are built to handle the wear of regular service. The construction holds up well through repeated dishwasher cycles, which matters in busy operations where hand-washing individual covers is not practical. They maintain their finish over time without excessive polishing or specialist care between services.
From a practical standpoint, this pattern works well where operators want a consistent, sharp-looking table setting without committing to a higher-maintenance plated or coated finish. Key operational points worth noting:
- Dishwasher safe — suitable for commercial warewashing machines
- Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and staining with normal care
- Angular Lotus profile suits contemporary and boutique dining settings
- Sold in packs of 12, which aligns with standard cover planning
- At 235mm, the blade length is proportionate for a standard steak cover
These knives are most suited to restaurants, hotel restaurants, and event caterers running regular steak or grill menus. For very high-turnover operations or venues with a history of heavy cutlery losses, it is worth considering whether a heavier gauge specification or a larger pack size would be more cost-effective in the longer term.
If you are unsure how many covers to cater for or how this pattern sits alongside the wider Lotus range, we are happy to advise before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, the Lotus steak knives are dishwasher safe and are designed to withstand regular commercial warewashing. As with all stainless steel cutlery, prompt removal after the cycle and avoiding prolonged contact with harsh detergents will help maintain the finish over time.
- A common rule of thumb is to hold two to three times your cover count in cutlery to allow for turnover, breakages, and items in the wash cycle. For example, a 40-cover restaurant would typically hold 80 to 120 steak knives. If you are unsure of the right quantity for your operation, we can help you work through the numbers.
- The Lotus steak knife is part of Sola's broader Lotus cutlery range, which shares the same angular profile and finish across multiple pieces. If you are building a full table setting using this pattern, it is worth confirming the other pieces you need are available in the same range to ensure a consistent look across the cover.
