FAQs
What types of cheese are each knife best suited for?
The hard cheese knife is for firm cheeses like cheddar or parmesan. The soft cheese knife is for creamy cheeses like brie or camembert. The all-purpose knife is versatile for semi-hard cheeses or general use.
Are the knives suitable for everyday kitchen tasks?
No, these knives are specifically designed for cutting cheese. Using them for other tasks may damage their specialized blades and finish.
What is the material of the knives?
The knives are manufactured from grade 420 stainless steel, known for providing a fine cutting edge, while the forks and spoons in related ranges are made from 18/10 (304) stainless steel.
How should I clean the cheese knives?
While dishwasher safe, hand washing with warm, soapy water and drying thoroughly with a soft cloth is recommended to maintain the mirror polish.
Does the set come with a warranty?
Yes, all Robert Welch stainless steel cutlery comes with a lifetime guarantee against manufacturing defects.
Can the oak box be personalized?
The product description mentions that a personalized message can be added to the lid of the gift box, subject to age verification.
What are the dimensions of the knives?
The Hard Cheese Knife is 194mm, the All-Purpose Cheese Knife is 220mm, and the Soft Cheese Knife is 224mm in length.
Troubleshooting
Knives appear dull or are not cutting cleanly.
Ensure you are using the correct knife for the cheese type. For instance, the hard cheese knife should be used for firm cheeses. If the issue persists, the knife may require professional sharpening, though this is rare given the quality of the steel.
Spots or discoloration on the knife surface.
These are likely water spots from inadequate drying after washing. Polish the affected area with a soft, dry cloth. For more stubborn spots, a specialized stainless steel cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by thorough drying.
The oak box shows signs of wear.
Wipe the exterior of the oak box with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals. For minor scuffs, a small amount of food-grade wood polish can be applied and buffed out.
