Getting a Rachael Ray Set for Your Kitchen
In today’s society where just about every movie or television star is profiting by his or her popularity through advertising endorsements, talk shows, books and blogs and eponymous products, Rachael Ray is just as busy as everyone else. Happily for the fans of the television presence, her eponymous products are associated with her established area of talent – cooking. Consequently, we have the Rachael Ray knife sets which coordinate with her cookware sets, such as the Furi Rachael Ray Gusto Grip 3 Piece Knife Set.
General Features
Rachael Ray’s knives are produced by Füritechnics, an Australian cutlery maker that also garners approval from other celebrity chefs such as Nigella Lawson. Following Ray’s suggestion, these knives are lightweight and include non-slip handles (as Ray calls them, “super duper grippy”) and factory sharpened blades. And of course, with orange being her ideal color, just about all the knives are made with orange handles cases, with the notable exception of the onyx-colored steak knife set with case.
With regards to the technical attributes, Füri blades are manufactured out of a high-carbon German stainless steel alloy blade attached to a polypropylene/synthetic rubber handle which has a eclusive reversed-cone shape to increase its “super duper grippyness”. Two notable features in the handles of Ray’s knives are the germ-killing agent in the polypropylene, and the copper insert which could be shaved to re-establish the knife’s balance in the wake of a couple of years of sharpening sessions.
Advantages
Well, as we already explained, the super grippy knife meets Ms. Ray’s goals, thanks to the handle’s reverse-wedge shape that makes for super-grip management even while your hands are wet. You’ll have to agree, you would rather not handle super sharp knives which could become hard to control when they come into contact with liquid on your hands, which occurs quite a bit as you are cooking. A great set is the Furi Rachael Ray Gusto Grip Knife Set.
Any Rachael Ray knife set could be a stylish gift by virtue of its striking packaging. Plus, you may choose between the orange and the black case or the bamboo case. And the orange handles are nice bit of sunshine in a dull beige kitchen!
Also, it adds to the package that Rachael Ray touches viewer’s lives during her TV programs. She has personally used and rated every knife while on TV and they proved to be efficient and enjoyable. That exposure, when presented with her personality, compels consumers to purchase the products. And that’s star power for you!
Disadvantages
Even though this particular knife set provides cutting results, there are some issues concerning the knives themselves. To begin with, the orange handles might be a trick to work with in case your décor is in a contrasting shade, or maybe you merely don’t like your kitchen gadgets to visually jump out and greet your guests. Unless you can work with these very visible accents on a daily basis, you may want to consider neutral-colored handles like black or silver.
There are additionally concerns about the danger of the E. coli bacteria due to the gaping seam which divides the rubber handle and the metal bolster. This, predictably, comes from the complications in washing properly in such tiny spaces. Well, it could be the anti-microbial components in the handle can minimize it, but the chance may be too high for your comfort level. A nice set to look into is the Furi Rachael Ray Gusto Grip 3 Piece Knife Set.
Generally speaking, the Rachael Ray knife set can be perfect for beginning chefs practicing their talents in their houses before they open their five-star restaurants. For consumers with commercial uses for knives, changing over to better engineered blades may be suggested.
