FAQ

Why Mëren?

Every day home cooks are forced to either pay the big bucks for household-brand knives, or be stuck with the cheap-quality knives found at Target or Walmart.

That’s why it was so important to us to close this gap and create pro-grade knives that everyone can afford. So we cut the middleman and eliminated traditional retail markups to create incredible knives priced fairly.

How does your 60-Day Trial Run work?

At Mëren we back up the quality of our products with a risk-free 60-day guarantee. You can get our knives and try them out at home, and if you’re not happy for any reason, just send them back within 60 days of receipt for a full refund.

Why only 3 knives?

Many brands out there offer bulky 12-piece sets that most people don't need just to make a bigger profit.

We didn't believe that was right, so we thoughtfully curated our set to include everything you need and nothing you don't. The end result was this set with the only three knives you actually need: the chef's knife, the serrated knife, and the paring knife.

Are these knives full tang?

Yes, our knives are full tang. That means that the blade extends fully through the handle in both length and width, making the knife a single piece of steel. In other words, our knives rely on a solid, continuous piece of steel for superior strength and stability. Our knives are therefore more durable, well balanced, and will cut through denser foods with less effort.

Can I put my knives in the dishwasher?

We recommend to hand-wash and dry your knives after every use. You might get away with dishwashing a few times, but you always risk damaging your knives. Dishwashers expose your knives to extreme temperatures and soaking, which may cause rust to form.

I’m a professional chef. Are these knives also suited for me?

Absolutely! During our product creation process we partnered with experienced restaurant chefs so that, at each iteration, we could test and get feedback from experts in the industry. That means that, although priced much lower, our knives are designed to perform in the rigors of professional kitchens and even outdo brands that cost 50-70% more.
