My best recent purchase was two Cutipol forks.
My sister bought me the cutlery I had wanted for ages as a housewarming gift.
Features
What I bought is from the GOA series—a design so well known that it’s no exaggeration to call it the emblem of the brand.
The handle is resin and the business end is stainless steel.
It has a pleasant heft, but never feels too heavy—”just right” is the word for it.
The weight distribution is even, so the balance is excellent.
Personally, when I saw them in the shop my first impression was, wow, these are big!
It’s hard to judge the size online, but seen in person, even the smaller Cutipol cutlery is fairly large.
So I’d recommend looking at them in a shop before deciding which size to buy.
There are many Cutipol lookalikes out there, and the GOA series in particular is widely imitated.
Here are the differences from other products, as listed on Cutipol’s website.
- The resin joint on the GOA copies is rough and may come apart
- The stainless steel part is heavy
- They look like the GOA but are made entirely of stainless steel
As this suggests, the genuine article is well made and built to last.
How it feels to use
They are very easy to use, and my hand never tires no matter how long I use them.
The handle is thicker than it looks in photos, so even with my thick fingers it feels perfectly natural to hold.
I really like the design too. When you buy good cutlery, you start imagining all the things you want to eat with it.
I can’t wait to have some cake…
Comments
They come in many colors, so they should suit all kinds of plates and meals.
I had admired this cutlery ever since I saw it at a café, so I’m very happy to have finally bought a set.
They make a great gift or a treat for yourself, so do take a look in a shop or on the website.
