Best kitchen knife sets of 2024, tried and tested

Over several weeks, we put the 11 top-rated knife sets to the test. We chopped, diced and sliced fruit, veggies, meat and more. In the end, we came up with three winners any home chef would find to be — er — a cut above the rest.

Masterfully forged from Premium High-Carbon Stainless Steel, our Imperial Collection is built to last so that you will never need another set of kitchen knives again! Our knives are carefully heat-treated and sharpened to perfection for razor-sharp cutting and extreme durability. Each knife is laser-etched with a beautiful Damascus pattern. The knives boast a 15 cutting angle for superior cutting, as compared to a typical 25 edge angle found in most Western knives.
