Kitchen Knife Set for £1.99 plus Postage

Options
There is a great offer of a set of kitchen knives from Jean-Patrique. For the five knives it costs £1.99 and £9.99 Postage and Packing. The normal Price is stated to be £125!!

The knives are a 10" Carving Knife, 9" Bread Knife, 8" Chef's Knife, 5" Utility KNife and a 3.5" Paring Knife. I have a set from the last time that the offer was available and can confirm that they are great value for £11.98:D

    I have seen this offer before and was very tempted, has anyone actually bought a set? Would they have been worth the RRP? It does seem a bit too good to be true, that's why I never ordered one before, but they often appear in Sunday supplements, you would think if it was a scam they wouldn't let them advertise, so maybe it is a genuine offer? :confused:

    Oh sorry I misread your post, you have the whole set? Are they proper blades that can be sharpened with a sharpening steel?

    Yes, they are proper blades that can be sharpened with a steel. I was a bit concerned when I ordered them, but was well pleased when they arrived, especially as only paid the £9.99 postage. They are one piece knives, exactly the same as the website.

    I have also bought a butter knife, a sandwich knife for just the price of the postage and a 3-Piece Oriental Chef's Knife Set for £9.99 plus postage. The site gives details of all the knives and offers seem to come up every few months.

    I think that they are extremely good value for what the offer prices are but would question the RRP.

    Hope this helps!

    They are supposed to be OK, but not the fantastic quality that they say they are.

    The first link no longer works.

    As I have previously said, I doubt the RRP of £125 :rolleyes: but for £12ish, the knives are good value, even if they end up as garden knives, except for the bread one, which I think is quite good:D.
