Affordable and razor-sharp

We keep saying it: a good knife is your most important kitchen tool. We understand that not everyone feels like spending a fortune on one. The knives from Pallarès Solsona are affordable and razor-sharp, so no more excuses.

The knives are small and compact, with a wooden handle that feels comfortable in the hand. The knife is still large enough to cut an onion or aubergine in half in one go. And for less than € 20, you can already be the happy owner of this all-rounder.

Carbon steel or stainless steel

I have a carbon-steel knife myself, which is easy to sharpen and therefore easier to keep sharp than the stainless-steel version. You do need to take extra good care of this knife. Dry it immediately after using it, especially if you have cut acidic foods such as lemons. This will prevent serious rust.

When I give it as a gift, which happens often, I always choose stainless steel. Then there is zero chance of rust spots, which do find their way onto my carbon-steel knife.

Buy

Look for it at a good knife shop. Firma Moes in Amsterdam sells them, at least, and otherwise they can also be ordered online.
