Reviews
- DVDelyana V.ReviewingOLIV Series 5-Inch Serrated Utility Knife, Forged Swedish 14C28N Steel, 501622I recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 years agoOne of a kind serrated knife
This knife is the best serrated knife you can buy. It is lightweight, incredibly strong and sharp, absolutely gorgeous and cuts thin-skinned, succulent fruit and veggies with zero damage to the skin or flesh and no juice loss. It just glides through anything like it’s warm butter. The handle has ergonomic grip design, additionally perfected by the meticulously polished smooth olive wood. I find myself looking for veggies to cut just so that I can use this kitchen masterpiece.
- KSKristin S.ReviewingOLIV Series 6-Inch Chef’s Knife, Swedish 14C28N SteelRated 3 out of 5 stars3 years agoA hit....and a miss!
This is a beautiful knife and feels great in my hand. Unfortunately, there was a small rusted pit on the back side of it and it wasn't as sharp as I anticipated it to be. It was a bit of a struggle to cut an apple in half.
