Review: Top Quality knife. - One of the best knives I've ever owned. I own 3 Cutco Knives and they are my favorite. The feel, the weight and balance, the sharpness nod the lifetime sharpening service......buy this early in your life and you will more than get your money's worth and be thankful for this purchase for years to come! I prefer Cutco to the Pampered Chef knives I have been given in previous years, which I have since given away.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why the high price?  I can purchase this same knife right now from Cutco for $112.**
A: The retail price of 1728 is listed in the Cutco Catalog $126.  My suggestion is Buyer Beware.
Thank You for your inquiry.

**Q: Is This Dishwasher Safe?**
A: Yes.  The Cutco Petite Chef Knife is indeed dishwasher safe!

**Q: How do I package the knives to be sharpened?**
A: The Way I've always done it, is to take a piece of cardboard just bigger than double the width of the blade (plus a half inch) and fold it in half around the blade and put the sharp side in facing the fold. Then wrap the whole thing up in something (bubble wrap or a rag) then mail it in a bubble mailer. However, for the straight edges I just bought a little knife sharpener for like $15 and I do those ones at home myself whenever they dull.Ok. I just checked Cutco's site and they don't like the bubble mailers. I do because I use to work in shipping, but I guess with knives you want to ship them in a cardboard box.

**Q: Is this a genuine cutco product? I thought you could only purchase cutco through cutcos website or a vector salesman?**
A: Hello and thank you for your question. It is absolutely 100% Cutco.  Thank you for your interest. Take care and God Bless.
