Who's it for?

Questions

Good to know before you order.

Not sure which knife? Send us a message and we'll help you choose.

What's included in the 5-piece set?

The set includes an 8.5" Chef Knife, 8" Butcher Knife, 8.5" Kiritsuke Knife, 7" Santoku Knife and 7" Nakiri Knife — covering most everyday kitchen tasks.

Can I buy the knives individually?

No. This set is sold complete, as the five knives shown.

What is each knife for?

The Chef and Santoku are all-rounders, the Nakiri suits vegetable prep, the Kiritsuke handles fish and fine slicing, and the Butcher is built for heavier cuts of meat.

How do I care for these knives?

Hand wash only and dry immediately to avoid rust. They are not dishwasher-safe and shouldn't be used on bones or frozen food.

How fast is delivery?

UK delivery is free on every order, with no minimum spend. Orders are dispatched within 1–2 working days, then delivery takes 5–7 working days (6–9 working days in total). We currently deliver to UK addresses only. Knife orders travel on an age-verified, signature-on-delivery service, so someone aged 18 or over needs to be there with photo ID.

Can I return it?

Yes — you have 30 days from delivery to return an unused knife, plus the statutory 14-day right to cancel.
