Cuisinart Prep Set

The set includes a variety of essential prep knives housed in the acacia wood block. While the exact assortment can vary by retailer, it typically features a chef's knife, a paring knife, a utility knife, and other specialty blades designed for everyday slicing, dicing, and chopping tasks.

The handles are designed with ergonomics in mind to provide a secure grip. However, because they are smooth stainless steel, it is important to keep your hands dry while working to maintain the best control and safety.

To preserve the integrity of the stainless steel blades and the finish of the handles, we recommend hand washing with mild soap and drying immediately. Avoid the dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can dull the blades and affect the handle construction over time.

The hollow handle design is engineered to reduce the overall weight of the knife, shifting the balance point toward the blade. This makes the knives feel lighter in your hand, which helps reduce wrist fatigue during repetitive tasks like chopping vegetables.

The acacia wood block is durable and naturally resistant to moisture, but it should be kept dry. You can occasionally wipe it down with a damp cloth and apply a food-safe mineral oil if the wood begins to look dry to maintain its natural luster.
