Our verdict

Two basic knives with guards for light prep, color coded to keep foods apart. There is no chef knife, so heavy chopping needs a separate blade.

Overview

A compact kitchen drawer is where this Cuisinart pair of knives lives, a serrated utility knife and a paring knife with a nonstick coating and matching blade guards. The set is built around color coding during food prep.

Reason to buy is a low clutter pair: one utility blade for skins and crusts, one paring blade for detail, each with a guard. The limitation is the narrow range, since neither knife handles large chopping and hardness and edge angle are missing.

Who it's for

Singles and couples with limited drawer space get the two knives that do most small jobs. People who want a chef knife in the same purchase should look at a bigger set.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Serrated utility knife for skins
  • Paring knife for detail work
  • Matching blade guards
  • Nonstick coating for color coding
Cons
  • No chef knife in the set
  • Stamped rather than forged blades
  • Hardness and edge angle not listed

Performance notes

The serrated utility edge works by sawing, which grips tomato skins and bread crust. The nonstick coating lowers drag and doubles as the color code. Stamped blades are cut from sheet steel, which lowers the weight.
