Delivery Information

Price Match

The Lazzo dinner knife from Chef & Sommelier is a hollow-handled table knife produced in 18/10 stainless steel. The handle follows a teardrop profile that tapers gently towards the neck, giving the piece a clean, fluid appearance without decorative excess. The construction provides a reassuring weight and rigidity that holds up well in daily table service without feeling heavy in a guest's hand.

In a working dining room, cutlery is handled constantly — cleared, machine-washed, stacked, and reset across multiple covers a day. The 18/10 stainless steel specification is a practical choice for that environment, resisting staining and surface corrosion through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles better than lower-grade alloys. The hollow handle keeps the balance comfortable for guests while avoiding the fragility that can come with some more ornate handle styles.

  • 18/10 stainless steel holds up well through heavy commercial wash cycles
  • Teardrop hollow handle with tapered neck balances well without added bulk
  • Consistent pattern across the Lazzo range supports matched table presentation
  • Sold in dozens, practical for building cover counts or straightforward replenishment
  • Clean handle profile suits both formal and contemporary dining room settings

The Lazzo pattern sits comfortably between budget catering cutlery and premium forged ranges. It is well suited to mid-range restaurants, hotel dining rooms, private members' clubs, and function venues where presentation matters but replacement cost needs to remain manageable. For operations running high covers or mixed-use events, the pack sizing makes quantity purchasing straightforward.

If you are fitting out a full cover count from scratch or working out how many packs you need across a range of pieces, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently asked questions

How many packs do I need to cover a dining room of a given size?

A general starting point is three to four knives per cover to allow for a full set on the table, a buffer for losses, and enough stock to keep service running while a load is in the dishwasher. For a 50-cover room, that typically means six to eight packs as a working minimum, though high-turnover operations or venues running multiple sittings may want more.

Is the Lazzo pattern suitable for fine dining or more formal table settings?

The Lazzo's clean teardrop profile is well suited to mid-range and upmarket casual dining, hotel restaurants, and function venues. It presents neatly without looking decorative or budget. For very formal fine dining where heavily styled or silver-plated cutlery is expected, a premium forged range may be a better fit — the team can advise if you are unsure.

How does the hollow handle hold up in a commercial dishwasher over time?

Hollow-handled cutlery generally performs well in commercial dishwashers provided the wash temperature stays within normal operating parameters. The 18/10 stainless steel used in the Lazzo resists the staining and pitting that can occur with lower-grade alloys over time. It is worth checking that your dishwasher detergent is appropriate for stainless steel cutlery, as highly aggressive chemicals can dull the finish over extended use.
