Robert Welch Signature 20cm Cooks Knife - Multi Award Winning British Design - Crafted from German 1.4116 Stainless Steel - Suitable for All Chopping Purposes.

My son bought me this knife for my birthday last year, and as he loves cooking, I decided to return the favour and get him one for Christmas, so technically, this one hasn't been used yet. However, my one is used every day and I wouldn't be without it. It cuts through anything without any effort. By far the best chef's knife I've ever owned in all my adult life! I went on to buy a smaller vegetable knife from the range and have put the bread and carving knives on my Christmas list! Yes, they are rather expensive, but so worth it! Just a tip though - keep them away and preferably in their box (& obviously, well out of reach of children) - it would be easy to cut yourself badly if rummaging through a cutlery drawer for it!!

Great little knife. My mother in law remains confused as to why I'd want a knife for Christmas. I cook a lot, and this is a great day-to-day knife. I will be buying a slightly larger one. The handle is lovely to hold; nice shape, weight and feel. Used more than any other "utility" knife, and would buy again.

I read the review on WHICH? for the 14 cm which i did consider a little too short . The 16 cm is the ideal size . I have been using it for three months now and the ergonomic fit of the handle with the incredible sharpness of the blade makes it outstanding. It has a reasonable weight which makes chopping & carving very easy . I was fortunate that it fits in my knife block . You get what you pay for

Really really comfortable, loads of care in the design. The handle is just made for human hands, rather than trendy looks. keeps an excellent edge. As a woodworker I apreciate quality tools. I write occasional reviews to say what is good and lasting, and what isn't, hoping to reduce the waste caused by shoddy products.

Perfect knives. I have purchased a number of these at Christmas as I hadn't realised how bad my old knives were until I used my daughter's. I brought myself a whole new set of knives and they have cut my food prep in half! So sharp and chop veges beautifully. The shape of the handle for me is perfect for chopping up and down see-saw fashion. I love it. Perfect style, quality and craftsmanship. I would thoroughly recommend

This is the second one of these exact knives I’ve bought. It is excellent. It is used for everything and will do everything. Keep it sharp using a stone and it will live with you forever. For the money it’s exceptional.

I’ve had this knife for 13 years at time of writing, and I’ve probably used it multiple times a day, almost every day. I’m not a professional chef, just a very active and keen home cook. I have their paring knife, and bread knife too, but other than that this is my go to for everything. It’s amazing and I can’t fault it. It’s super comfortable for regular use, it’s balanced really well, and is made from one piece of metal so you know the handle won’t break off. It doesn’t work all that well for everything, like butchery etc, but obviously it’s not made for that. You need to sharpen it periodically and as it needs it, as you do with all knives.

These knives are brilliant. But...(and I guess that's why I bought 2!), Do not underestimate the sharpness of these knives! Made me realise how rubbish my old ones were. I have already had 3 cuts, and narrowly missed a visit to A&E! They are beautiful to hold however, lovely weight, and once I have got the hang of a properly sharp knife, am sure I will be much safer and able to use/appreciate them even more!

The best

Fabulous knife! HIGHLY recommended!

Handle is designed ergonomically. Knife is well balanced.
