Our take on the Cuisinart Advantage 12 Piece Color Knife Set

The Cuisinart Advantage 12-Piece Color Knife Set is a budget kitchen knife set with color-coded stainless steel blades and matching sheaths, so each knife is easy to identify and store safely. The set covers the everyday jobs: chef's knife, slicing, utility, paring and serrated knives, plus kitchen shears and a peeler in most configurations. It is aimed at households that want a complete, inexpensive starter set rather than forged premium cutlery. The latest best price sits near the low end of its recent range, so it is a reasonable time to buy.

Questions and answers

Is this set worth it?
Yes, if you want an inexpensive, complete set for everyday cooking. Skip it if you want forged knives that hold a sharp edge for years.
How does it compare with the Cuisinart Advantage block sets?
The knives are the same stamped stainless steel line; the difference is storage. This set uses individual sheaths instead of a wooden block, which saves counter space.
Are the knives dishwasher safe?
Cuisinart recommends hand washing to protect the edges and the color coating. Dishwasher heat and detergent can dull blades and fade the finish.
What is included in the 12 pieces?
Typical contents are an 8-inch chef's knife, 8-inch slicing knife, 7-inch santoku, 5.5-inch utility knife, 3.5-inch paring knife, serrated utility knife, bread knife, kitchen shears, peeler and several steak knives, each with a sheath.
When is the price lowest?
Discounts tend to appear around Black Friday, back-to-school and other home-goods sales. The current price is already near the low end of its recent range.
Do the sheaths fit all the knives?
Yes, each knife comes with a matching color-coded sheath. They are for storage and transport, not for use as cutting guides.
