The Yabano knife set is a sensible pick if you're building a kitchen from scratch or replacing worn knives. At £15.99, it delivers basic competence without pretence. The plastic block, ceramic coating, and built-in sharpener make it practical for home use. It won't impress a professional chef, but for everyday chopping, slicing, and dicing, it handles the job. Skip this if you cook intensively or demand premium aesthetics; otherwise, it's honest value.
Editorial review
The Yabano knife set offers a practical starter collection for everyday kitchen work. You get seven pieces: three 8-inch blades (chef, bread, and slicing), a 5-inch utility knife, a 3.5-inch paring knife, kitchen scissors, and a plastic knife block with a built-in sharpener slot.
The blades are high-carbon stainless steel with a black BO Oxide coating and ceramic nonstick finish. This combination helps resist corrosion and keeps edges sharper longer during regular use. The handles are ergonomic and lightweight with non-slip air holes for a secure grip.
The plastic block is a practical choice here—it's waterproof and won't warp like wood, making it easier to maintain in a busy kitchen. The built-in sharpener means you won't need a separate honing tool, though it's designed for touch-ups rather than major blade restoration.
With over 1,400 reviews averaging 4.5 stars, users generally report decent performance for the price point. The set works well for basic chopping, slicing, and dicing tasks. It's also compact enough for smaller kitchens where space matters.
This is genuinely useful if you're starting from scratch or upgrading from old, dull blades. It's not a professional chef's set, but it handles standard home cooking without fuss.
Price trend
At £15.99, this Yabano set sits in the budget-friendly range. It's positioned as an entry-level option—you're paying for practical coverage (seven pieces) and the integrated sharpener, not premium blade quality. Compare this to standalone knives at similar individual prices, and the bundle makes sense for someone equipping a kitchen without major spend.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the plastic block any good, or should I use a wooden one?
The plastic block is actually more practical for most home kitchens. It won't absorb moisture, won't stain, and won't warp like wood. It's waterproof and easier to clean. The trade-off is aesthetics—if you want a premium look on your counter, wood feels nicer. For pure function, plastic wins.
How sharp are the blades out of the box?
They arrive reasonably sharp and ready to use. They're not as sharp as premium chef knives, but they'll slice, dice, and chop without excessive effort. They'll dull with regular use, so you'll want to use the built-in sharpener every few weeks.
Can I hand-wash these knives, or do they need special care?
Hand-washing is fine and recommended. High-carbon stainless steel can spot in a dishwasher and the ceramic coating may chip. Wash after use, dry promptly, and store in the block. Avoid chopping on glass or marble surfaces.
Are these knives suitable for a beginner cook?
Yes. The set covers all the basics and the handles are comfortable for extended use. The weights are balanced for home cooking tasks. If you're learning kitchen skills, this set won't hold you back.
Does the built-in sharpener actually work?
It's a honing slot, not a true sharpener—it realigns the blade edge between proper sharpenings. It helps maintain sharpness but won't restore a badly dulled blade. For major sharpening, use a whetstone or professional service annually.
