Replacing Kitchen Cabinet Handles?

My kitchen cupboard and draw handles are off colour and grimy despite my efforts to clean them!
I have seen loads of similar handles in Wickes, The Range and Wilko etc however, i don't understand the sizing and there are no samples in the stores which i can try the screw with to see if it fits.
They say 27mm 30mm 35mm 40mm on the packs which i think is the length of screw but mine is 26mm. No mention of thickness of screw which i'm concerned about.
I don't want to pay almost a tenner for something i am unable to return after opening.

Enjoy everyday like it's your last!

Take one of your screws and compare to one in the packet.Maybe, just once, someone will call me 'Sir' without adding, 'You're making a scene.'0

the size is probably the diameter of the knob. They usually come with screws to suit.0
