This is definitely my favourite kitchen knife and the one I use on a daily basis. Well designed, comfortable to use and cuts through tough things with little effort. The black coating has started to wear off but it doesn't seem to have affected the knife's performance.
Absolutely delighted with my knives and its essential to have the sharpener I used to run a cookshop in Cirencester and part of my stock was top quality knives purchased directly from Manufacturers in Sheffield. I still have many of them but seem to use the magic knives every day now. I have a wrist problem and find the weight and ease of using them perfect
My first thought on seeing these at the caravan show was, no, walk straight past, cheap rubbish that they make look so good. But the wife pulled me back to look at some boring stall next door to the magic knife stall, so I started watching. After approx 15 seconds I was hooked. Didnt believe that they would be as good as they showed me, so I asked for a go myself. I couldn't fault any of the knives in the set, everything I cut or sliced, just seemed like melted butter. I called the wife over and she had a go with them, with her arthritis in her hands, she cut and sliced through everything with ease. She made me buy the 3 inch knife. Six months on now, still cuts with ease and I've only run it down a steel once. If I see these at a show again, I'll be buying the complete set, they put our £600 wusthof set to shame. Highly recommend, 5 stars, 10/10, smiley face, top notch.

This and the larger 8in size are my favourite 'go to' knives, whenever I'm cooking anything. They're so easy to handle and re-sharpen, I never have a blunt knife. I've got a set I use in the home and another set in the caravan. Preparing, or cutting anything is a joy and so effortless..
I love this knife! It is really easy to use and sharpens well.
Great little knife. Not quite as awesome as the 8" I got first, where the "magic" really comes into its own, but still good, and holds its edge well
Bought 5" and 8" at Devon County Show at least 6 years ago and still going strong.Also have bought them for various family members.Everyone delighted with them
Sharp, durable, and very much as advertised. Nice product.
We were impressed with the demo on how sharp the knife was at the exhibition and we were able to test it ourselves before we purchased. After getting home and using the knife, mainly on veg prep, we were very disappointed how blunt it became after only a week of use. As a result it’s been lying in the drawer unused as we don’t have a sharpener but really wouldn’t have thought it needed sharpening that quickly anyway so perhaps the quality is not as we were sold.
MAGIC KNIFE 15 June 2020. Hi. It sounds like the knife simpoly needs a sharpening. Any ne wknife may need a light sharpening when first purchased to bring it to it's best. Any pull-through sharpener, similar to the type we sell, will work on the knives. Email me on phil@magic-knife.website if you want any more help. Cheers, Phil & Lesley
Brilliant service from company, exchanged knife without any fuss, I also purchased another 3 inch knife as they are so good. would recommend these knives. GREAT service!!!!!
The knife is blunt after 6 months and the black coating has started shedding. It has lost its magicness very quickly.
MAGIC KNIFE 12 June 2020. Hi.As a rule of thumb, the needs probably need a light sharpening every two months, so all will be well after a sharpening. Teflon does wear off in time, particularly if the knives are put in a dishwasher. Please email me on phil@magic-knife.website if you are not completely satisfied. Cheers, Phil & Lesley
So pleased we bought this, It makes easy work cutting hard and soft vegetables.
This is one of the sharpest knives I have ever used,it makes cutting up hard vegetables like swede so easy. I have also discovered that it is the best knife to use for slicing soreen malted bread without it squidging!
This really was a brilliant buy, I only wish I had bought the set at the time, although I use it for many things it would have been worth it just to slice tomatoes, it will cut them wafer thin if needed with no effort at all.
A great all rounder in the kitchen and definitely my best friend on the tough tasks such as butternut squash!
