The Right Cut: Your Guide to the kjøk Knife Set

Discover a kitchen knife set built for precise cutting, everyday cooking, and stylish moments in the kitchen.

In this article, you'll find out which knife suits which job, how to use the right cutting technique, and how to look after your knives – for a lasting edge and more enjoyment in the kitchen.

The Chef's Knife – a Classic for Bigger Jobs

With its 20 cm blade, the chef's knife is the sturdy all-rounder of your kitchen. It glides effortlessly through bigger ingredients like cabbages, squash and melons – with real elegance. It handles meat with ease too, which is why no good knife set is complete without one.

Tip: Use a rocking cutting motion – it keeps your cuts controlled and even, and it's kinder on your wrist.

The All-Purpose Knife – Your Compact Everyday Hero

With a 13 cm blade, it's your reliable companion for onions, tomatoes, cheese, garlic or herbs. All the everyday jobs, handled comfortably, lightly and precisely. This all-purpose knife earns its place in any well-equipped kitchen, combining versatility with comfort.

Tip: For small, round foods like tomatoes or grapes: cut with light pressure and a drawing motion – so everything keeps its shape and nothing gets squashed.

The Nakiri – Precision Cutting with a Touch of Zen

With its 17 cm straight blade, the nakiri is ideal for fine cutting. Whether it's vegetables, fruit, tofu or paper-thin slices of meat, it excels at anything delicate and even. That makes it a must-have for precise veg prep and creative, delicate cooking.

Tip: Cut like a Zen monk – calm, straight, focused. Ideal if you want to find your flow while you chop.

How to Keep Your Kitchen Knives Sharp for Longer

To get lasting enjoyment from your knife set, it needs a little simple care. Here's what to keep in mind:

• Cut on wooden or bamboo boards where you can – harder surfaces blunt the blade faster.

• Wash the blade by hand and dry it straight away, to stop it rusting.

• Keep it away from the dishwasher – seriously. Heat, moisture and friction all take their toll on the edge.

• Use the blade guard that comes with it, to keep your knives stored safely and securely.

• And if it's ever needed: with our quality knife sharpeners, you'll bring the blade back to top form.
