How to Choose the Best Knives Set

From blade material, cost and aesthetics to personal cooking style, there are many factors to consider when selecting a knife block set. Most leading kitchen knife brands offer knife block versions, from German-made Wüsthof to Japan's Shun and Global. 

Good knife block sets will contain the three essentials

A chef’s knife - the workhorse used for chopping, slicing, mincing and crushing. The curvier the blade, the better it will be at the ‘rocking’ motion ideal for tasks like mincing herbs.

• A utility knife – although paring knives were once considered must-haves, a slightly longer utility knife is now recommended. In addition to paring, it can be used for slicing, peeling, cubing and segmenting.
• A serrated bread knife - this will allow you to effortlessly glide through firm or delicate crusts or skins to create perfectly even slices.
• A long thin slicing or carving knife is another good tool to have in your kitchen. A Global knife set is an ideal option, which includes all of the favourite shaped blades allowing you to complete any task in the kitchen with ease.

Don’t overlook beauty and personality

The knife block itself is a functional accessory. It’s useful tool for storing your knives where they’re easy to access, it keeps blades safe from damage and prevents you from accidentally cutting yourself. However, a block or stand will take up space on your bench, so choose one that fits your needs, space and style of your kitchen. Many wooden, glass and metal stands can make a stylish statement in your kitchen.

How Much Are Commercial Kitchen Knife Sets?

There's a bewildering array of knife sets available online for both commercial and domestic use, and they range from dirt cheap to incredibly expensive. When it comes to knives, much of the price difference comes down to the quality of materials, which generally translates into how well the blade holds its edge.

The price tag of a premium knife block set can be intimidating, but quality is key for precision and functionality. What’s more, high quality knives, including vegetable knives, boning knives and bread knives, can easily last 20 years or more, depending on how hard you use them and how well you take care of them. Investing in the best knives set you can afford will reward you with many years of practical use.
