Set of Two 6.5" Kiwi Brand Chef Knives # 172

I use this wonderful, inexpensive knife for slicing veggies, fruits, fish, and meat without bones. The knife is light and easy to handle. The blade is very thin but strong, though you might not want to try to cut a pumpkin or a butternut squash or anything with bones with it—anything else is fine. (Meat bones or chicken bones might nick or chip the blade and almost certainly would dull it.) The knife does especially well with very thin (or regular) slicing of vegs and fruits. Despite owning some very expensive Global knives, I also choose this Kiwi knife to cut cooked tuna steaks into 1/4 inch slices with very clean edges—try doing that with your regular kitchen knives! I have bought these knives for myself and to give to others as gifts, with which I always include a warning to be careful when opening package and using because these knives are really that sharp. I am so pleased with this knife that I will probably get a Kiwi paring knife, which is also surprisingly inexpensive. I have two quibbles that don’t keep me from giving a 5-star rating: 1) a small paper label is glued to the wooden handle and is somewhat challenging to remove; and 2) the handle has only a very thin waterproof coating. Tips: Obviously a knife with a wood handle is likely to suffer from being put in a dishwasher, so don’t. It’s quick and easy enough to hand wash and dry this knife with a cloth or paper towel; just be careful of the sharp edge of the blade. (Did I say this knife is sharp?) Disclosure: I am a home cook and don’t have any relationship with the Kiwi knife company or Amazon.

Very nice, very sharp knives.

Delivers on expectation at a price I think anyone might have a hard time competing with, if you've never had a knife of this brand I would encourage you to take a chance

I've used this brand for years and absolutely love them. They cut through vegetables like butter. Wooden handle is comfortable to hold. Very good quality. Recommend to hand-wash for it to last longer.

Hands down, my favorite knifes I have. As a chef, I have Global, Shun, and many others and this is my go to over 90% of the time. As a side not, it works as a great spatula in my carbon steel pans. It holds an edge very well and is very easy to sharpen for a beginner. I bought these in 2020, it is now 2025. Just get them.

For the price of these knifes you cant go wrong and when you actually use them they are great, sharp, light, and can be easily resharpened. I have other Kiwi knifes and have never been dissapointed they are used in the rotaion with my other knifes that some are 20x's the cost of course there is a diffrence in build compared to those but these are a plaease to use also and if something happend to these i would not fret as the price is cheap. Great quality Thai made knifes.

The quality of this knife is very good. I'm using this for 10 years still good. Recently, I got a new one as a backup. I gifted one to my mother and she fell in love with it as well.

Love love love these knives. They are a thin blades with a little flexibility. Light weight as well. They stay sharp for a long time. I've sharpen other knives after using them 2-3 times but these knives retain their sharp edges for much longer.
