Yes - your children can also have their own knife, so they are able to help you with preparing food and start experiencing and enjoying the art of cooking! Japanese knife manufacturer MAC designed a cute little knife for children - this one comes with a blue handle and a little cartoon of the seal catching a squid 🦑 on the dark blade. How cool is that!? Just ask your children! 😊
It was designed to provide children with a fully usable, functional knife, but of course with many safety features to maximize safety. The knife is made out of MAC's molybdenum stainless steel, and the edge is actually quite sharp (which we agree it should be). Both the tip and the heel of the blade have been rounded and dulled to prevent accidental cuts and injuries. The curved heel provides great support for your child's index finger. The handle is made of Lamar resin which makes it slip-resistant and comfortable to use. The handle oval and thin to fit in smaller hands.
⚠️ We cannot stress enough that this is still a sharp knife and if not used under strict adult supervision, it can cause harm and injuries to your children. Please make sure to take enough time to teach your children about the proper usage and safety of using a kitchen knife. This knife is suitable for children older than 3 years. With all this in mind - this MACs Kids knife is an excellent and fun way of introducing your curious children to the beauties of cooking and preparing food. Have fun, stay sharp and safe!
Liza (3), our favorite artist, drew this picture for us. As you can no doubt see, it’s a snail on holiday by the seaside. Before she left with her dad for her own summer vacation, she picked out a pink (naturally!) MAC knife for kids so she’ll be able to help with the cooking. It’s never too early. Under adult supervision, of course. 😀

☝️ Japanese kitchen knives in our store are handmade from natural materials. Slight variations in color, texture, weight and other dimensions are possible. We try to give a good photographic representation of our products, however computer screen resolution and colors do vary, so products might not look exactly as they are seen on screen.
Blade wear depends on the quality of steel, usage and maintenance of the blade. Japanese knives are made of high-quality steels. Follow these tips to keep your Japanese knife in top-notch shape:
✔ Use a wooden, plastic or rubber cutting board.
✔ After use, wash the knives and wipe them dry.
✔ For storage, use a knife holder or a protective knife sheath (saya).
✔ A good cutting technique is your best bet to prolong sharpness.
✔ Use sharpening stones to sharpen the knife.
❗️Don’t leave the knife in the sink. Wash it by hand.
❗️Don’t wash the knife in the dishwasher.
❗️Don’t use the knife on glass, ceramics, marble or steel surfaces.
❗️Don’t scrape the food off the cutting board with the edge of the blade. Use the spine of the knife instead.
❗️Knife is a tool intended for specific use - cutting food. It is not a can opener, screwdriver, trowel, wire cutter, hammer etc.
