A strong all-rounder and an irreplaceable addition to your cooking arsenal.

The “Eye Witness” Trademark was first registered in 1838 – the inspiration for the choice of “Eye Witness” is believed to be Shakespeare’s line in Henry IV – “No eye hath seen better”.

Review: Good knife for the price - I am very pleased with the knife. Good stainless steel blade. Sharp point. The test is how long it keeps it'a sharpnesd and how well it sharpens.
Review: Wonderful Utility/ Tomato / vegetable / Sandwich/ Dinner Knive 🤗💜 - 13 cm length just right size, can be used to chop up salad vegetables including tomatoes but not tearing them and great for chopping up fruit and does an excellent job cutting up my fried egg toasted sandwiches 😋. With having a serrated Knive edge and not a sharper jaggid edge it's just the right sharpness. So overall a good prep Knive for vegetables and fruits and also can be used as a dinner Knive to eat with. I also went for the UPLIFTING, BRIGHTLY RAINBOW 🌈 COLOURED ONE to cheer yourself up thru these winter days... Can be put in dishwasher. The colours are just as bright as in the photos and the silicone handle grip feels secure when using but not overly rubberised like some baking silicone products ... Just right 👌 Would Highly recommend and would buy more from this company when needed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Knife From A Good Brand
*by T***1 on 14 January 2026*

Good quality brand (Taylor's Eye Witness) that I like. Price is reasonable. Sharpness on arrival is OK but not the best - requires some extra sharpening if you want it that sharp.
