A Few Words From One of Our Over 16 Million Customers
“Forty-seven years later, I still have my original set! It was the best purchase I’ve ever made! I’m so spoiled by these knives, I cringe when I’m forced to use someone else’s knives. Even though I don’t consider myself to be the best cook in the world, I could never live without my Cutco Knives...best purchase ever!”

What Makes Cutco Different?
Handle Design
Cutco’s universal wedge-lock handle is ergonomically designed to comfortably fit large, small, right or left hands. This “hand-perfect” handle is contoured providing a sure grip with less effort. Thumb and forefinger lock into place for safety and control. Fatigue-resistant design maximizes the power of the thumb and fingers while distributing the workload equally to all parts of the hand.
Materials
Cutco’s handles are made from a highly engineered thermo-resin that will not crack, chip or absorb moisture and they are dishwasher safe.
The blade of a Cutco Knife is made from high-carbon, stainless steel for sharpness, superior edge retention, beauty and easy care. This material also resists rust and corrosion. A three-step heat-treating process ensures the innovative Double-D®- and straight-edge blades are durable, flexible and hold a razor-sharp edge.
Double-D® Edge
The Cutco exclusive Double-D® edge provides a clean, smooth cut every time and stays sharp longer than straight-edge knives. The Double-D® edge consists of a series of three razor sharp cutting edges that are recessed and run along the blade edge. These cutting edges are angled to cut forward, backward and straight down with equal efficiency. Between these three-part cutting edges are points that protect the cutting edges by preventing them from coming in contact with china, glass, bone, metal or other surfaces that can quickly dull cutting edges. This protection of the cutting edges maintains the sharpness of the blades for many years of normal kitchen use. And when it does need a fresh edge, Cutco will sharpen it for you at our factory in Olean, New York.
Construction
Cutco Knives feature a full tang, where the blade extends the full length of the handle, to provide strength and balance. Nickel silver rivets securely attach the handle to the blade and will resist pitting and tarnishing while staying flush with the handle for comfort, strength and durability.
“I purchased the Gourmet Prep Knife, the Petite Santoku and the French Chef Knife. It was love at 1st cut and I still have those knives. I have since purchased a whole block set and can’t wait to add to my collection. As someone that loves to cook, I’m always in search of products that make cooking and prepping easier and more efficient. I not only love the knives themselves, but the customer service is amazing! The last time I sent them for their routine sharpening, to my surprise when my knives were returned, they sent me a brand-new replacement. I’m a lifetime fan.”

“My husband and I bought our Homemaker + 8 set after we were married in 1988, when a relative told us she’d had her Cutco Knives for over 50 years! Over the years we’ve added many tools and knives to our set since they just make cooking easier and more enjoyable! We’ve always said that Cutco is and continues to be a great investment.”
