VictorinoxSwiss Classic Paring Knife Set, Set of 3, Straight Edge, Extra Sharp, Robust Plastic Handle, Red

Let me start by saying that these knives are not just knives—they are precision instruments designed to make every carrot, apple, and onion question its very existence. If vegetables could have nightmares, these Victorinox knives would star in every single one.First off, the blades. Made from stainless steel, these things are *ultra-sharp.* Seriously, they’re so sharp that you might find yourself slicing through tomatoes just for the satisfying feeling of how effortlessly the blade glides through. These are the kind of knives that don’t just cut; they surgically separate. And the best part? They hold their edge like a stubborn Swiss guard—no constant sharpening required. Long-lasting and reliable, these blades aren’t here to mess around.Now, the design. The handles are made of polypropylene, which sounds like something from a sci-fi movie, but what it really means is they’re tough, durable, and ready for whatever abuse your kitchen can throw at them. Lightweight and ergonomic, these handles fit in your hand like they were custom-made. Need a marathon chopping session? No worries—your hand won’t feel like it’s gone 12 rounds with a heavyweight onion. Oh, and did I mention the handles come in a bright, cheerful red? It’s not just stylish; it’s practical. You’ll never misplace these little wonders in the chaos of your utensil drawer.As for the weight and balance, they are perfectly proportioned. Each knife feels like an extension of your hand, making precise cuts almost meditative. They’re light enough for quick, agile dicing but substantial enough to feel like you’re wielding something serious. Bonus: the handles are designed to be sterilized, so cleanliness freaks like me can breathe easy.Let’s get to the set itself. Three knives—each with an 11 cm blade—give you versatility for everything from mincing garlic to peeling fruit to cutting that stubborn chunk of cheese that refuses to play nice. This trio covers all the essentials without overcomplicating your drawer with unnecessary extras.**Any downsides?** Well, if you’re prone to accidentally nicking yourself with dull knives, these will be a harsh lesson in respecting sharp tools. Keep those fingers tucked in, folks. Also, once you use these, you’ll probably side-eye every other knife you own and wonder how you ever tolerated their mediocrity.Verdict? These knives aren’t just good—they’re life-altering. They’re sharp, durable, and make kitchen prep feel like less of a chore and more of an art form. Whether you’re a pro chef, an amateur cook, or someone who just likes to peel apples with finesse, this set will be your go-to.In short: these are not just knives; they’re weapons of culinary precision. Use them wisely—or your veggies might start a petition. 🔪🍅✨

Small, handy and sharp knives! 100% satisfied from the product.

Great knives . Very sharp for veg

I visited my granny, she had one of these. I was mind blown by the experience. My granny said she 'stole' it from her daughter-in-law's set. She couldn't resist having this knife. (Auntie agreed to give her one)I used it once and immediately went on Amazon to order myself a set.These are sharp. I mean. Sharp. Be extra careful - sharp. What a quality for price! Very easy to hold and manouvre. Their shape is excellent for various tasks and produce. Cut through anything as if it was butter.I believe everyone should get this set for their kitchens. Such little things, yet provide with so much satisfaction while cooking. Easy to clean and store. I promise it'll be your first choice go-to when you'll think to yourself 'I need a knife'.

We love Victorinox and use them daily as regular knives during meals. They are SHARP and remain so for years. The only qualm would be that the plastic handles superficially cheapen an otherwise excellent knife!

In 2005 I visited Switzerland an bought a paring knife from a shop in Interlaken. At some stage the knife was left on a baking tray and went into the oven. The handle melted a bit and is now mis-shapen, though the knife is still in daily use.I was looking for another and came across this set. It's inexpensive and will possibly be overlooked because of the low price. That would be a mistake. The quality is superb. My current knife is still going strong after 19 years of daily use. For under £12 you simply cannot go wrong - if these were twice the price they would still be an absolute bargain. If you are looking at this set and wondering whether to buy or not, just buy it. You won't regret it, now or in 10 years time.

Great set of the only knives I ever buy - not that I've had to replace any as yet. Wonderfully sharp, the serated blades make soft fruit and vegetables a breeze. The perfect utility knives to pair with a decent chefs knife.

These a a great set of knives. Quite small but excellent for cutting and peeling all manor of fruit and vegetables Very sharp so be careful! They also feel good and have a nice balance
