Some knives marketed for children as young as 3 years old have edges sharper than many kitchen knives, while others are so dull that they crush rather than cut. Dull knives require more force to use, which can actually make them less safe.

We believe there is a sweet spot: a knife that can easily cut through most foods while still being safe enough to prevent injury.

Many current children's knives are overly "kiddified," which can hinder kids from understanding the true purpose of a knife and developing a sense of responsibility.

We believe that while it's important for knives to appeal to kids, they should also resemble real knives. This helps children recognize the care needed when using these knives.
