Two offset palette knives, at fifteen and twenty five centimetres. Offset means the blade steps down from the handle, so your knuckles clear the cake while the blade stays flat on the surface. Trying to smooth a buttercream with a straight knife is how you end up with a dent in it.

- 15 cm for the top of a cake, 25 cm for the sides
- Flexible blade, follows a curve instead of gouging it
- Full tang through a riveted handle
- Rounded tip, will not catch
- Dishwasher safe

Care and cleaning
- Dishwasher safe, though hand washing is kinder to the handle rivets.
- Do not use them as a lever; the flex that makes them useful also means they will take a set if you bend them hard.
- Warm the blade in hot water and dry it before smoothing buttercream. It glides instead of dragging.
