  • Smart Investment: Looks far more premium than its price point suggests.
  • 18/0 Steel Care: Lacks nickel, so ensure it's dried properly to avoid water spots.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Grand Oak Hotel in Harrogate decided their brasserie's tableware needed a refresh. Their existing cutlery was a mix of mismatched, tired-looking pieces that detracted from the dining experience they wanted to offer.

"We wanted a uniform, classic look that felt premium but could handle the rigours of a busy service, seven days a week. The Olympia Harley range delivered on all fronts; it looks fantastic and  is incredibly practical."

Michael Davies – Food & Beverage Manager

The upgrade resulted in a noticeable improvement in table presentation, contributing to a 15% increase in positive online reviews mentioning the restaurant's ambience.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon arrival, unbox and  check each knife to ensure it meets your standards.
  • Always perform an initial wash cycle before the first use to remove any manufacturing residues.
  • Lay your tables with the knife on the outside-right of the place setting, ready for the final course.
  • Consider pairing with the matching Harley table knives and  forks for a complete, cohesive look.

Keeping It Going

  • Rinse food off the knives as soon as possible to prevent acids from causing any pitting.
  • Avoid using harsh scourers or steel wool, which can scratch the polished surface.
  • To prevent water spots, dry the cutlery promptly after washing, either by hand or with a good dishwasher rinse aid.
  • Store them in a proper cutlery divider to avoid scratches and  keep them organised for service.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Cutlery

Not sure what fits best for your business? Choosing the right cutlery can make all the difference. Here are a few key things to keep in mind.

Material Matters (18/0 vs 18/10)

18/0 steel, like this Harley knife, is a fantastic, cost-effective choice for high-turnover venues. 18/10 contains nickel for extra shine and  is often seen in fine dining.

Weight and  Balance

A well-balanced piece feels good in a customer's hand. The Harley range has a reassuring weight that signals quality without being overly heavy or clunky.

Style and  Ambience

Your cutlery is part of your brand's story. The classic, elegant 'double step' design of the Harley collection complements both modern and  traditional decor beautifully.

Par Levels and  Spares

Cutlery always goes missing – it's a fact of life in hospitality! Always order around 20-30% more than you need to cover losses and  ensure you're never caught short.

Finish and  Upkeep

A high-polish finish looks wonderful but can show fingerprints. Ensure your team has a simple system, like using a microfibre cloth, to give them a final polish before they hit the table.

What's the Deal with 18/0 Stainless Steel?

Ever see numbers like '18/0' or '18/10' and  wonder what they mean? It's actually quite simple and  tells you what the metal is made of. The '18' refers to 18% chromium content, which is the key ingredient that makes stainless steel 'stainless'. Think of it as the cutlery's built-in armour against rust and  corrosion. The '0' means it contains 0% nickel. Nickel is an expensive metal that adds extra lustre and  an even higher level of rust protection. For most busy restaurants, hotels, and  cafes, 18/0 provides the perfect combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and  value for money. It's a true workhorse material designed for the real world of hospitality.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Hotel Restaurants: Perfect for adding a consistent, high-quality touch to your dessert service for guests.
  • Busy Cafés & Bistros: An affordable way to present cakes and  pastries with durable, stylish cutlery that withstands daily use.
  • Event & Catering Companies: A reliable and  elegant choice for functions and  weddings; the Harley cutlery dessert knife is easy to clean and  transport.
  • Traditional Pubs & Inns: Elevate your classic puds with cutlery that matches the welcoming, quality feel of your establishment.
