Assure 8” Bread Knife

This was bought with slicing large joints of meat, and it has proved to be a very sensible addition to the kitchen. The squared tip is different to what I have always used, but to date, has made no difference to how it carves. It feels reassuring, especially when there are extra hands hovering about the worktop. The blade comes nicely sharp and makes light work of carving meat into clean, tidy slices. It does not require much pressure, which is a blessing when hands and wrists are not as strong as they once were. Control is excellent, and the knife feels steady and predictable rather than twitchy.... you don't have to wrestle the joint!!! The handle is comfortable and easy to grip, and makes it easier, even with larger joints. It feels practical rather than flashy, and that suits everyday family cooking perfectly. Cleaning is simple and it is standing up well to regular use. I love the design, and being a shorter carving knife, it fits in the standard drawer tidy. I was so impressed at the quality of this knife and the brand.... I bought another 3, and I don't even need them!

Perfect paring knife, perfect size and nice sharp blade with safety rounded end. Easy to use.

It’s a good bread knife! Securely packaged, slightly smaller than expected but functions well. Quality is good. Pleased overall.

Very sharp and cuts bread easily and with no effort. Great quality for the price

Great knife for cutting home baked bread into thin slices, using a bread holder. Price is right.

I have bought a whole set of these knives, I first come across them when I attended cooking classes (these were the knives they used). I really liked the feel of them, not too big and bulky in my hands. I also like the look of them, black blades and black handles look very smart. I feel very comfortable using these. I bought a magnetic knife holder and keep them in my kitchen drawer.

Absolutely delighted with this knife. Bought it ready for the Christmas joint and I am very impressed - it carves a joint perfectly. I love the length of the knife, the sturdy comfortable handle and the sturdiness of it. I have multiple spinal fractures and too much pressure on my hands and arms also hurts my back. I had none of that with this knife. I don't like knives, but love cooking! so this blunt ended knife makes me feel much more comfortable. Basically, I used to dread carving meat - it used to take me ages and was very painful. I'm looking to get the basic kitchen knife from this range and also the bread knife. Thoroughly recommend.

Good quality, good value, quick delivery! Does what it is supposed to. Recommended.
