The Guillaume Léonard Cuistot set of 3 knives brings together three essential models for making the majority of kitchen cuts. Designed for everyday use, this set combines reliable stainless steel blades with comfortable red sandalwood handles. It makes it easy to prepare fruit, vegetables, herbs and cuts of meat, thanks to complementary knives that cover a cook's essential needs.
Presented in an elegant box, this set also makes an excellent gift idea for cooking enthusiasts who want to equip themselves with efficient, easy-to-use knives. The well-balanced design of each knife guarantees a good grip and smooth cutting on a daily basis.
Three versatile knives for all cuts
The Guillaume Léonard Cuistot set contains three complementary knives for the most common kitchen tasks. The 9cm paring knife is perfect for precision work such as peeling fruit and vegetables, removing small imperfections or making delicate cuts directly in the hand.
The 13cm utility knife offers great versatility for intermediate cuts. Its size makes it particularly practical for slicing vegetables, preparing fruit or working with small pieces of meat. It is often the knife most frequently used in everyday cooking.
The 20cm chef's knife completes the set with a longer, wider blade, ideal for larger preparations. It can be used to quickly chop, mince or slice large quantities of food, while maintaining excellent control of the gesture.
Reliable, easy-to-maintain 1.4116 stainless steel blades
The three knives in the Cuistot set are made from German 1.4116 stainless steel. This alloy is widely used in cutlery for its corrosion resistance and durability in regular culinary use. Enriched with chromium and nitrogen, it maintains a high level of protection against humidity and food acids.
With a hardness of around 56 to 58 HRC on the Rockwell scale, this steel offers a good compromise between edge retention and ease of sharpening. The knives remain high-performance for everyday cutting, yet are easy to maintain, making them a particularly good choice for cooks who want practical, reliable tools.
The blades feature a flat cutting edge for symmetrical cutting and a clean cut. This geometry facilitates cutting movements and is suitable for both right- and left-handed users. The polished finish provides a sober, elegant appearance, while facilitating cleaning after use. Each blade is discreetly signed with the Guillaume Léonard logo.
A comfortable, sturdy red sandalwood handle
The knives in the Cuistot set feature a handle made from red sandalwood, a dense species renowned for its natural resistance to humidity. Its fine grain and warm color give the knives an authentic look and feel.
The shape of the handle is inspired by traditional Western knives, with a rounded ergonomic palm. This design ensures a stable, comfortable grip, even when cutting for long periods. The knife remains well under control during cutting gestures.
The handle is of solid construction, with three stainless steel rivets securing the wood inserts to the tang. A stainless steel bolster also reinforces the connection between blade and handle, helping to improve the knife's overall balance and protect the hand during use.
A practical box for storage or gift-giving
The Guillaume Léonard Cuistot knife set comes in an elegant presentation box. This packaging enables the knives to be stored safely when not in use, while making them easy to transport or store in a kitchen drawer.
Thanks to its neat presentation and the versatility of the knives it contains, this box also makes an ideal gift idea for cooking enthusiasts who want to equip themselves with reliable, easy-to-use knives.
How to care for Guillaume Léonard Cuistot knives?
To preserve the quality of the knives in your Guillaume Léonard Cuistot set, we recommend washing them by hand with a soft sponge and non-abrasive soap. Dishwashing is not recommended, as it can damage the sharpness of the blades and alter the wood of the handle.
After washing, knives should be wiped immediately with a clean cloth to avoid any trace of moisture. They can then be stored in their box, in a knife block or on a magnetic bar to protect the blades and extend their life.
Guillaume Léonard: a sincere vision of everyday cooking
The Guillaume Léonard brand is inspired by the warm-hearted image of an uncle with a passion for cooking, always ready to prepare a good meal and share a convivial moment around the table. This philosophy is reflected in the design of the brand's knives, which are conceived to be simple, effective and accessible.
Guillaume Léonard knives emphasize balance, reliability and the pleasure of the gesture. With the Cuistot range, the brand offers tools designed to accompany everyday cooking and encourage sharing around good home-cooked meals.
