Best To Use

Introducing a practical knife that will change your breakfast experience forever.
Despite its appearance, the knife is sharp so you can peel with it easily. It’s serrated at the end for those satisfying cuts of toast, and has a rounded tip for the most efficient spreading of practically everything - from butter and pâté to avocado and (our favorite) Nutella. You can also use it as a small spatula or a spoon for tasting your grandma’s strawberry jam.
No cheese, from the hard Parmigiana to the soft Brie, will hold it back.
But be careful, this adorable little knife is sharper than it looks. It’s made in Seki, Japan, after all, from high-end Japanese steel, which guarantees it will stay sharp for quite some time.
Its comfortable wooden handle (yellow for a good morning!) provides a secure grip and it will gain some patina over the years that will make the knife truly your own.
