General Features

Rachael Ray’s cutlery is manufactured by F’ritechnics, an Australian knife maker that furthermore garners recommendations from other television chefs such as Nigella Lawson. As a result of Ray’s suggestion, these knives are lightweight with easy-grip handles (as Ray calls them, ‘super duper grippy’) and factory sharpened blades. And naturally, with orange being her signature color, practically all the knives are made with orange handles cases, with the noteworthy exception of the onyx-colored steak knife set with case.

With regards to the technical issues, Rachel Ray’s cutlery sets are fabricated from a high-grade German stainless steel alloy blade encased in a polypropylene/synthetic rubber handle molded in a patented reversed-cone shape to improve its ‘super duper grippyness’. A pair of notable features in the hilts of these knives are the germ-killing ingredients in the synthetic rubber, and the copper insert which could be shaved to re-establish the knife’s balance in the wake of a number of sharpening sessions.

Disadvantages

Even though this super grippy knife set delivers cutting abilities, there are some issues concerning the knives themselves. Firstly, the orange handles could be a trick to decorate around when your d’cor uses a contrasting color, or if you just don’t prefer your kitchen gadgets to visually jump out and greet your visitors. Unless you are willing to put up with these very visible accents every day, you may want to consider neutral-colored handles like black or silver.

There are even problems about the risk for the E. coli bacteria due to the open seam that separates the rubber handle and the metal bolster. This, of course, arises from the lack of ease in cleaning between such narrow spaces. Well, it could be the anti-microbial agent in the handle can diminish that danger, yet the chance may be too great for your peace of mind.
