Nogent Hornbeam Wood Handled Set of Vegetable Peeler and 3-1/2-Inch Paring Knife, Lime Review

Nogent was founded in 1923 and still manufactures all its products in its own factory in eastern France, near the Champagne region with a tradition of knife making that dates back to the middle ages. All the production steps are quality controlled by long-term, experienced personnel, which guarantees very reliable products designed for a lifetime of use. The hornbeam, slow dried, wood handle come from managed forests in France and is so hard that it is dishwasher safe. Only the color will fade over time. We are probably the only manufacturer to use high carbon beveled steel rather than flat steel. This expensive material gives our blade a very durable sharp edge that is easy to re-sharpen and used for years without damaging. It is not unusual to find Nogent knives that have been passed down several generations within a French family. Paring knives are the most often used knife in the kitchen. It is ideal for peeling and coring fruits and vegetables, cutting small objects, slicing, and other hand tasks. This set of Nogent nature paring knife and two edge vegetable peeler will cover all your day to day vegetable preparation needs. Assorted knives are available in the same bright colors (Cherry, Curry, Lime and Plum).
