What To Look For In A Good Knife Set

If it's a chef knife set you're after, we've got plenty for you to choose from. When choosing a knife set, here are some things to look out for:

  • Does it come with a block? Knife blocks are a great way to store your kitchen knives, and they can also add a touch of natural warmth to your kitchen.
  • Does it come with a honing rod? If you want to maintain your kitchen knives, honing them with a steel rod is a great way to start. Some knife blocks and knife sets come with these rods included.
  • What are the blades made of? Stainless steel is the most common knife blade material, as it is stain and rust-resistant, but it doesn't sharpen well. Carbon steel is harder to maintain but sharpens better and will last longer than stainless steel if cared for properly.

Browse the range of kitchen knife blocks, kitchen shears and individual knives to find the perfect kitchen knives and scissors for your needs!
