Nice knives, although they do require sharpening more frequently than the rep said they would when I bought them at the ideal home show. The peeler is probably my favourite item!
MAGIC KNIFE 26 May 19. Hi Mrs. H. The knives should need a light sharpening about every two months, unless they are put in a dishwasher or used on glass/marble type chopping boards. If you have any concerns please do email me on phil@magic-knife.website Cheers, Phil & Lesley
Brilliant knives: 6 months in and lasting well - even the non-stick finish is still good (we don't put them round the dishwasher).
I am pleased with the Magic Knives. They are very sharp & cut really well. I use them often & have not needed to sharpen them since I bought them almost six months ago. I am really pleased that I bought them.
MAGIC KNIFE 18 May 19. Hi Gloria. Do try giving them a sharpening, you'll probably notice the difference after six months. As a rule of thumb, we find about every two months keeps them in tip-top condition. Happy Cutting, Phil & Lesley
I love them
My husband was very sceptical when I brought these home but was soon won around after using them! They are in constant use and I can honestly say they are the best knives I've had. I've had sabatier ones before. Amazingly easy to use on fresh bread or turnips! Worth every penny.
Well after seeing the demo at the Grand Design show I thought ...what the heck I'll get a set and see how they go. Well, they are the best thing ever. Easy to use, glides off anything you want to cut and it even the hard things like butter. Simply stunning
The best knife set we have ever owned. I love the fact you get a sharpener with the set to keep the knife sharp. Im a baker and it cuts through freshly baked bread. like soft butter, with out having to squeeze it tight or squashing it. Hard carrots, even butternut squash and other vegetables aren't an issue and again cut like the are soft cooked. Fish is skinned and boned with ease. We have tested our knives on many things and haven't found an item it doesn't cut with ease. Im going to buy a set for my daughter. Great value for money. Even the scissors are amazing and can be sharpened. A purchase you definitely won't regret.
MAGIC KNIFE 10 May 2019. Hi, thanks for well explained comments. Don't forget the code on your guarantee registration certificate will give a good discount for online purchases, if you can't get to a show for your daughter's set. Cheers, Phil & Lesley
Have been pleased with my purchase but I do have a few comments to make. 1. I wish it were possible to buy a block in which the knives could be safely kept. 2. I didn’t get on well with the vegetable peeler 3. One of the knives has now lost its initial sharpness and I would be grateful for any advice. My comments aren’t meant to be negative because it’s been a joy with my arthritic hands to chop vegetables, etc.!
MAGIC KNIFE 10 May 2019. Hi Jennifer. You will find an online search will give a good choice of blocks and other knife holders. We do find that people have preferences for the sort of peeler they like to use. We recommend sharpening about every two months. A pull through type sharpener similar to those we sell are best, but we do not recommend stones, steels or electric sharpeners. If we can be any more help just email me on phil@magic-knife.website Cheers, Phil & Lesley
Excellent knives, quality and service from the company. Highly recommand it.
Absolutely fantastic knives, peeler and sharpening tool. Have used many knife set before but these are the very best you could buy. All doing a brilliant job. Could not be more pleased with the mic knife products.
Had the knives 6 months and couldn’t be happier .. They have remained sharp and cutting through meat and veg like butternut squash with ease. Would definitely recommend these knives
I love all my magic knives, I never use any other knives in my kitchen now. They cut through everything so easily, it takes a lot of the effort out of chopping. The peeler makes preparing squash so easy, for a long time I avoided recipes with squash because they can be so hard to peel and cut, but not anymore, my magic knives and peeler makes it just the same as preparing any other vegetable. My mum gave my knives a test drive removing the tough membrane from an orange for a fruit salad, she immediately ordered her own.
Best set of knives I have ever had. Sharp and easy to clean. Have recommended them to several friends
Bought this set at the Camping and Caravanning show last year. The knives have seen use almost everyday since and have only occasionally been sharpened to keep them at their best, with the blade being so thin it is so easily able to cut through tough veg like swede and is also one of the best bread knives I've used. It is also great for slicing meat very thin. Love the smaller knives for veg prep. My only criticism of these knives is the handle. For me it isn't the right shape or weight and would much prefer a more rounded and heavier handle which would give better control. Would still recommend these knives to anyone as I've seen nothing like this from another company.
MAGIC KNIFE 3 May 19. Hi Josh, many thanks for well thought out comments. We investigated various designs of handle when it was changed to the current design in August 2014. The problem with making the handle heavier is it affects the balance of the knife. You'll notice the point of balance is just where it should be. Increasing handle weight means increasing blade weight which then affects cutting action. Cheers, Phil & Lesley
I purchased my magic knives from the motorhome show in Birmingham and was pleasantly surprised to find that they actually work as well as they were demonstrated on the day. They are so much easier to use than the conventional knives and I no longer need 6 or 7 different knives in a block...the magic knives do everything.
