This set comprises eight stainless steel knives, expertly crafted to deliver precision and performance in the kitchen.

This set includes essential tools beyond just the knives themselves; a sharpening steel allows you to maintain the sharpness of your blades for longer, whilst the integrated scissors and ceramic peeler provide additional functionality.

The knives are constructed with an alloy steel handle, providing a comfortable grip during use. This collection represents a mid-range investment, backed by Taylors Eye Witness’s Sheffield heritage and their multi-year guarantee – a reassuring sign of quality and durability.
