10 years experience
"Swibo safety knives are a chef’s best mate when it comes to precision and protection—bright handles, razor-sharp blades, and no-nonsense performance. Don’t skimp on safety in a busy kitchen; a good cutter saves time, fingers, and a whole lot of hassle!"
How Commercial Swibo Safety Knives & Cutters Work
Swibo knives work their magic through a combination of exceptional materials and thoughtful design. Each knife features a high carbon stainless steel blade precision-ground to maintain a razor-sharp edge. The ergonomic handles—usually in their signature yellow—are injection-moulded directly onto the tang, creating a hygienic, seamless bond that prevents bacterial buildup. The balanced weight distribution reduces hand strain during extended prep sessions, while the textured grip ensures stability even when hands are wet or greasy. These design elements combine to create cutting tools that slice through food with minimal effort—crucial for high-volume commercial kitchens!
Safety Guidelines
- Keep Visible Never leave knives submerged in sinks—prevents accidents.
- Proper Grip Hold handle firmly with fingers away from blade edge.
- Stable Surface Always cut on secure chopping boards—no wobbling.
- No Rushing Take proper time when using sharp tools—prevents slips.
- Cut Direction Always cut away from your body—reduces injury risk.
- First Aid Ready Keep basic supplies nearby—just in case.

Top Tips for Using Commercial Swibo Safety Knives & Cutters
To get the most from your Swibo knives, always hand wash and dry immediately after use—dishwashers can damage edges over time. Store blades in knife blocks or magnetic strips rather than loose in drawers to maintain sharpness. Have knives professionally sharpened every 3-6 months depending on use, and use proper chopping boards (wood or polyethylene) to extend blade life. Remember that a sharp knife is actually safer than a dull one, as it requires less force to cut.
