Expert Review and  Insights

The Olympia C116 is a real workhorse in the world of restaurant cutlery. It perfectly hits that sweet spot between looking smart and  being tough enough for the relentless cycle of a commercial environment. While it doesn't have the nickel content of 18/10 cutlery, its magnetic quality is a genuine operational bonus for busy venues.

Emily Hart – Tableware Expert View Profile →

  • Pro: The magnetic 18/0 steel is brilliant for cutlery saving systems.
  • Con: Requires immediate drying to avoid water spots, adding a step for staff.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Inn in Padstow, Cornwall, needed to replace its mismatched and  worn-out cutlery. With high footfall from tourists, they were also experiencing significant cutlery loss, which was driving up their operational costs.

"We switched to the Olympia C116 knives, and  the difference was immediate. They look fantastic on the tables, but the real win has been the magnetic steel. Paired with a cutlery saver on our bin, we've practically eliminated accidental disposals. It’s a simple feature that has made a substantial financial impact."

Robert Davies – General Manager

The inn reported a reduction in cutlery replacement costs of over 25% in the first six months.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, unpack and  inspect all knives for any transit damage.
  • Give them a thorough wash and  dry before their first use to remove any manufacturing residues.
  • Consider pairing them with a magnetic cutlery saving system on your waste bins to maximise their cost-saving potential.
  • Place them in cutlery polishers or storage containers ready for service.

Keeping It Going

  • After use, rinse off any food residue as soon as possible to prevent erosion.
  • Although dishwasher safe, for best results and  to prevent water spots, always dry them by hand immediately after the wash cycle.
  • Use a soft, microfibre cloth for drying and  polishing to maintain the high-shine finish.
  • Store them in a dry, clean area to prevent scratching and  maintain hygiene standards.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Cutlery

Not sure which cutlery is the perfect match for your business? Here are a few things to keep in mind.

Consider the Weight

Heavier cutlery often feels more premium to a customer. This Olympia C116 table knife has a satisfying but not overly heavy weight, signalling quality without being cumbersome.

Material Matters

18/0 steel (like this) is magnetic and  cost-effective. 18/10 steel contains nickel, making it more resistant to spotting but also non-magnetic and  more expensive. Choose based on your priorities!

Style and  Finish

A high-polish finish provides a classic, upscale look that fits most decors. Ensure the style of the handle matches the forks and  spoons you use for a cohesive table setting.

Durability is Key

Always look for 'commercial grade' cutlery. It's designed to be washed multiple times a day and  withstand knocks and  drops far better than domestic alternatives.

Buy in Bulk

Cutlery is always needed. Buying in packs, like this pack of 12, is almost always more economical and  ensures you have enough spares during your busiest services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these knives dishwasher safe?

A: Yes, they are. However, to maintain their pristine high-polish finish and  prevent water spots, we strongly recommend they are removed and  dried by hand immediately after the cycle finishes.

Q: What does 18/0 stainless steel actually mean?

A: It refers to the steel's composition – 18% chromium for corrosion resistance and  0% nickel. This makes the cutlery magnetic, which is a huge bonus when used with cutlery saving systems.

Q: How many knives come in one pack?

A: Each pack of Olympia C116 contains 12 commercial stainless steel table knives.

Q: Is the handle comfortable for diners to use?

A: Absolutely. It features an ergonomic design that is comfortable and  well-balanced in the hand.

Q: Will this cutlery bend or break easily?

A: No, it's designed with a sturdy construction specifically for heavy commercial use and  is resistant to bending under normal dining conditions.

Q: Does the 'Olympia' brand offer matching forks and  spoons?

A: Yes, the C116 knife is part of the popular Harley pattern from Olympia, and  you can find matching forks, spoons, and  other pieces to create a complete, professional set.

Q: What is the main advantage of this knife being magnetic?

A: It allows the knife to be caught by magnetic cutlery savers fitted to waste bins, drastically reducing the amount of cutlery that gets accidentally thrown away.

Q: What is the finish like in person?

A: It's a highly polished, reflective silver finish that gives a classic and  elegant look to any table setting.

Why Magnetic Steel is a Money-Saver

Ever wondered what '18/0 Stainless Steel' actually means? It simply refers to the metal's composition: 18% chromium for rust resistance and  0% nickel. While nickel adds a bit more shine and  protection, its absence here creates a very useful side effect: the steel becomes magnetic. Think of it like a built-in safety feature for your budget. When used with a magnetic cutlery saver (a simple device that fits over your bin), these knives are caught before they're accidentally thrown away with food scraps. It’s a tiny detail in the manufacturing process that directly translates into fewer replacements and  more money in your pocket over time.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Bustling Bistros: Perfect for high-turnover establishments needing durable, smart-looking cutlery that stands up to constant use.
  • Hotel Restaurants: An affordable way to equip dining rooms with a professional table knife for restaurants that looks and  feels premium.
  • Classic British Pubs: Ideal for serving hearty pub grub, where robust and  reliable cutlery is an absolute must.
  • Canteens & Halls: A cost-effective solution for equipping large-scale dining facilities without compromising on quality or durability.
