Reviews

Sharp but lighter in than

"Sharp but lighter in than I expected and the wood on the handle isn't fully sanded/smoothed out"

Norbert A. (4/5)

Same as it ever was.

"Bought to replace Dad's 40 year old version which had a cracked handle. Love the stiffness which makes it safe to use on the toughest vegetables."

Ss A. (5/5)

Great knife

"Love this knife. Very sharp and well balanced. Handle doesnt do well in dishwasher"

Sniese (5/5)

Chef knife

"I have this same knife for over 50 years. I just bought one for my grandson, hoping he likes it as much as I like mine. I recommend this knife to anyone."

Sue M. (5/5)

A Great Working Person's Chef Knive

"You can spend a lot more money for a kitchen tool (And I have!) but you don't have to with this great knife. Buy it and be happy for the rest of your life (You do need to sharpen it from time to time)"

Rip W. (5/5)

Perfect standard chef's knife

"I purchased my first one of these knives in 1989 and after 30 years looks and feels just as wonderful. When I travel, it comes with me. I love the weight, the blade, everything about it. I now have 2 as well as others and couldn't be happier with my knives."

Dalaimama (5/5)

Gift in waiting

"I will be giving the knives and sharpener as a gift later this month. The gift will be for a person who talked about Chicago knives. Now he will be getting them."

Big T. (5/5)

super knife

"Just what I wanted. Wooden handle and perfect contour."

Maxey (5/5)

Disappointed with quality.

"I was really disappointed in the quality of this knife - not what I expected from Chicago Cutlery. The handle is awkward and has uncomfortably sharp edges, making it difficult to grip firmly and for any length of time. The blade angle tends to cause fine slices to adhere very firmly to the blade and when chopping, the food rides up and over the back of the blade, winding up on my hand and/or the floor."

Anonymous (3/5)

Not quite the quality I expected.

"Sadly, was not the quality I expected from Chicago Cutlery. Handle is uncomfortable to grip, with poor profile and sharp edges. New blade shape causes finely chopped food to adhere to the blade and move up and over the back of the blade, falling onto hand and/or floor. Very disappointing."

Care and Use

Chicago Cutlery Knives Use & Care

 

 

Knife Care

  • For best results, hand wash your knives with soap and water and dry immediately.
  • Soaking wood-handled knives in water can remove the natural oils from the handles.
  • DO NOT put knives in the dishwasher. Dishwasher use may cause nicks on the blade edges. Additionally, the heat and detergent may have a corrosive effect on the knives and damage the handle.
  • DO NOT cut through bone with knives or use knives to poke, pry or separate frozen foods.
  • DO NOT use knives as screwdrivers or can openers. This is not their intended purpose and can bend or break the blade or edge.

 

Knife Storage

  • Sharp knives should never be stored loose in a drawer because contact with hard objects can dull the blade. Many CHICAGO CUTLERY sets are sold with a hardwood block for safe, convenient storage.
  • MAGNASTRIP® storage is another way for convenient and safe storage, saving counter space with a magnetic strip.
  • CHICAGO CUTLERY knives purchased individually are available in blade protectors. The blade protectors help keep the knife sharp and provide safe and convenient storage at home.

 

Sharpening

Sharpeners are not for use on scalloped or serrated edges. For optimum performance, knives should be sharpened after every couple of uses. Use a scouring powder after use to clean and remove metal particles from your sharpening steel. After cleaning the steel, rinse with water, dry it thoroughly and store in a dry place.

 

Sharpening Steel

  • Hold sharpening steel point down on flat stable surface such as a table or cutting board.
  • Angle knife blade approximately 15 degrees from the sharpening steel. Imagine the knife blade is at approximately 11 o’clock and 1 o’clock.
  • Pull the knife down and across the sharpening steel in a slight arc, pulling the knife handle toward you. Repeat on the other side of the steel.
  • Repeat these steps 3-5 times, alternating the right and left side of the cutting edge.
