Overview
A kitchen counter lesson for a young cook starts with this set: a small chef knife with a rounded tip, a finger guard and a peeler. The handle is beechwood and the blade is high carbon stainless steel.
A rounded tip and a finger guard are aimed at teaching safe technique to children. The limitation is size, since the blade is short and will not replace an adult chef knife for big jobs.
Who it's for
A child learning to slice soft ingredients and peel at the kitchen counter fits the purpose, and teachers running cooking classes can use it the same way. Experienced cooks wanting speed on large vegetables will outgrow the short blade at once.
Pros and cons
- Rounded tip on the chef knife
- Finger guard included
- Made in France
- Limited lifetime warranty
- Short blade for large jobs
- Care instructions not listed
Performance notes
The short stamped blade has a plain edge, so it slices rather than saws, and the rounded tip removes the sharp point of a standard chef knife. The finger guard is meant for the hand holding the food, and the peeler handles skins.
