Danika MSI Japan Celtic Knot Dinner Knives Set of 4 Stainless Steel Flatware

This Danika MSI Japan dinner knife set includes four stainless steel table knives in the recognizable Celtic Knot pattern with woven handle ends and beaded border details.

The long, straight handles have a clean silver finish with darkened recessed decoration that makes the geometric knotwork stand out. These are useful replacement pieces for someone rebuilding a Danika flatware service, but the pattern also works well for a smaller table setting where four matching knives are all that is needed. Each knife measures approximately 9 inches long according to Pam's measurements.

Collector's Notes

The Danika pattern uses a woven knot motif bordered by small raised dots, giving an otherwise simple stainless handle a very recognizable look.

Matching replacement pieces matter to buyers who already own part of a discontinued flatware service and want to put a usable place setting back together.

This group keeps four matching dinner knives together rather than separating them into individual replacement pieces.

They have visible table wear, but the decorative pattern still does the job it was meant to do and gives the set plenty of presence.
