Tefal Jamie Oliver Kitchen Knives Set, 3 Pieces, The Starter Set, German Stainless Steel, K267S355, Black

Product Information

We haven't tried the Santoku knife as yet, but there is such a good range of "weapons" in this set. These are certainly by far the best knives we have ever used. Paring knife 9cm. A precise little knife for slicing orange segments or prepping mushrooms and carrots.

We were excited to be chosen to review these beautifully presented knife set, especially as ours had seen better days. I received this set as part of the Ambassador program. At first, I was skeptical, as I usually steer clear of products endorsed or recommended by celebrities, but the quality of the knives themselves changed my mind. Santuko Knife 16cm.Your go to knife when you need a light weight blade for the more delicate jobs. Slicing salmon or chopping, slicing, dicing and mincingEach of these knives are precise with the cut with minimum force, merely just holding them and the weight of the body and blade does the work - except for the bread knife of course but that slices loaves extremely well. UPDATE 2023: After nearly a year I'm going to increase my rating to 5 stars. They're really really good knives. They stay super sharp, are comfortable and well weighted and this set really covers all use cases we can think of.] Kitchen knives are one of the most used but often under-appreciated of our daily tools. Good quality knives, apart from being a matter of safety also have a feel-good factor. I’ve always used good quality knives including Wusthof, Glove and Victorinox. Being a house with a few vegetarians included, over a 4 week period, the Chef's knife, Utility knife, Paring knife and Bread knife are the common daily ones used.

The knives have a satin-like finish and I have found that when cleaning them, water spots and other marks are not removed very well. They almost need polishing after cleaning, or at least drying straight away and not left to dry on their own. I’ve been using the Jamie Oliver by Tefal knives for several weeks now, so here are my thoughts on them, from the day they were delivered.I found the paring knife extremely handy; I have been using it for stripping insulation off very thin cables. Compared to a utility knife, the balanced weight helps with precision required. The cleaning and maintenance instructions are on the side of the box. I had to put on two pairs of glasses for enough magnification to read them. I’ve taken a photo of them, so I won’t have to bother with the box again. (Basically, handwash with a non-abrasive sponge and dry carefully.) The bread knife is a little on the shorter side, so if you like to cut your bread in one smooth motion, you might struggle at first. The slicing knife is excellent for cutting my pork roasts, excusing the pun ... but "like a knife through butter"
