Review: Fantastic knife - well weighted - nice feel - Great little knife. My mother in law remains confused as to why I'd want a knife for Christmas. I cook a lot, and this is a great day-to-day knife. I will be buying a slightly larger one. The handle is lovely to hold; nice shape, weight and feel. Used more than any other "utility" knife, and would buy again.
Review: Cooks Knife - Sharp well made time will tell on life of how long before needs sharpening

## Features

- MULTI AWARD WINNING BRITISH DESIGN - Crafted from the finest German 1.4116 stainless steel, the Signature Cook's Knife 16cm is an all-purpose knife with a specially designed curved blade, enabling a rocking action for efficient chopping.
- COMFORT AND BALANCE - Made from a single piece of steel (fully forged), which runs the entirety of the knife (full tang). This means each knife is perfectly balanced, while remaining lightweight for ease of use. An angled, fully forged bolster allows for full use of the cutting edge for precision control.
- SUPERIOR SHARPNESS AND EDGE RETENTION - Features a hand applied Japanese 15° edge for superior sharpness. When tested by CATRA, Signature knives were found to be 21% sharper on the first cut, 48% sharper in use and 135% greater edge retention than the nearest competitor. The German steel is very resistant to corrosion and is easy to sharpen (Rockwell 56).
- DURABLE AND PRACTICAL - Robotically engineered and seamlessly joined to a high-quality POM handle which is injection moulded through the tang, forming an unbreakable bond ensuring longevity and aiding hygiene by eliminating food traps.
- LIFETIME GUARANTEE - All Signature kitchen knives are supplied with a lifetime guarantee against manufacturing defects.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have 20cm Cooks knife and 17cm Sandoku knife and am considering to add one more cook's knife. Should go for 14cm or 16cm?**
A: I have the 14 cm cooks knife, which are used a lot for meats and large hard vegetable chopping (like large carrots, swedes & cabbages etc). I also have the 10 cm vegetable paring knife. This is really great for cutting small vegetables, like sprouts,  green beans, small carrots & cucumber etc. Hope this helps 😊

**Q: How offen should you sharpen knife?**
A: I wipe it through the sharpener a couple of times pretty much every time I use it.

**Q: Is 20cm the length of just the blade, or the whole knife including handle?**
A: Hello,

The 20cm is the length of the blade.

Hope this helps :)

**Q: Can anyone tell me the weight of the 14cm knife, is it really only 43g?**
A: It is 107g....david from Toronto

Sharp well made time will tell on life of how long before needs sharpening

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sharpest knife I've ever owned!
*by L***A on 25 November 2020*

My son bought me this knife for my birthday last year, and as he loves cooking, I decided to return the favour and get him one for Christmas, so technically, this one hasn't been used yet. However, my one is used every day and I wouldn't be without it. It cuts through anything without any effort. By far the best chef's knife I've ever owned in all my adult life! I went on to buy a smaller vegetable knife from the range and have put the bread and carving knives on my Christmas list! Yes, they are rather expensive, but so worth it! Just a tip though - keep them away and preferably in their box (& obviously, well out of reach of children) - it would be easy to cut yourself badly if rummaging through a cutlery drawer for it!!
