Overview

Pairing a Partoku knife with a parer, this Chicago Cutlery Insignia Steel set uses stainless steel for both blade and handle. A guided grip shapes the handle, and a metal tang adds strength.

The reason to buy it is a pair of all-stainless knives with a shaped guided grip and a metal tang built for durability. The limitation is the narrow range: no chef's blade, and no storage beyond the box.

Who it's for

Cooks who handle small produce and mid-size trimming jobs, and want a low-profile pair, can cover those jobs with two knives. Households that want a chef's knife, bread knife or storage block should choose a larger set.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • All-stainless blades and handles
  • Guided grip for hand placement
  • Metal tang adds strength
  • Taper grind edge
Cons
  • Only two knives
  • No block or sheath listed
  • Edge hardness not listed

Performance notes

A taper grind edge cuts with a thin profile, and the listed edge angle sets how keen it starts out. The guided grip gives the hand a consistent position, and the metal tang carries the load of tougher cuts through the handle. Stainless steel resists stains and corrosion, but hardness is not stated, so edge life is unknown.
