This cutlery set comes in a high quality gift box making it an ideal present, it is completely dishwasher safe and comes with a WMF guarantee against manufacturing and material defect. This versatile and stylish tableware from WMF will look great and work for years entertaining guests in your dining room, but because it has 12 of each of the pieces you use everyday gives this second option for your family. It will meet all the demands made of it in today’s busy family world.

This beautifully crafted cutlery set from WMF has a brilliant shine finish from their trade mark 18/10 stainless steel Cromargan®. Patented in 1927 it is of the highest quality and is integral to all WMF products which are recognised and sold world wide. Cromargan from WMF has 18% chrome for shine and 10% nickel for lustre and strength, the nickel also helps prevent rust and scratches, this means it will look great for a long time while working hard. All knives however have to be stronger than nickel allows to offer optimum cutting ability, so for this reason nickel is replaced (in the knives only) with molybdenum to make sure they meet the expectations of today’s consumers. The knife in this set is manufactured in this way in one piece which means that because of it’s different composition it will be heavier than the fork when both are held at the same time.

WMF has been a manufacturer since 1853, many of it’s early products can be seen regularly on Antiques programmes, they have many collectors around the world. WMF pioneered the manufacture of silver plate and 18/10 stainless steel in the early part of the 20th century both of which went onto to become industry standards. It has always offered cutting edge designs from Art Nouveau and Art Deco right up to today’s challenging requirements of premium quality and longevity at affordable prices. WMF are based in Germany where they have manufacturing, warehousing and administration facilities; they also have manufacturing facilities across Europe and in the far east which means they remain competitive whilst maintaining their reputation for quality.

AnySharp make the bold claim that this is the World’s Best Knife Sharpener.

AnySharp The World's Best Knife Sharpener

Whether you’re slicing meat, cutting fabrics, or mowing the lawn, you’ll want your blades to be at their sharpest. Regular use of even the highest quality blades will dull their edge, resulting in a loss of accuracy or the need for more effort when cutting.

The AnySharp Knife Sharpener uses new, patented knife sharpener technology, making it superior to any knife sharpening steel or stone. Unlike other knife sharpeners, AnySharp is totally safe to use, because your hands are always away from the blade.

The PowerGrip suction cup means you can attach the AnySharp Knife Sharpener to almost any surface, horizontal or vertical, without the need for tools. And since it is so small and light, it can be easily tidied away in a drawer, cupboard, or tool box when not needed.
