With Opinel, kids can cook: Le Petit Chef collection is the perfect way to teach them. The training ring helps to position their fingers, while the finger protector protects the hand holding the food in place. Le Petit Chef set contains a knife, a peeler and a red finger protector. Le Petit Chef set is recommended for ages 5+. It is up to the parents to judge the child’s autonomy and maturity. This knife must be used under the supervision of an adult.
Why we picked it

As someone who is now a self-proclaimed amateur chef, I would have loved this as a kid. The Opinel set equips kids with a tool that actually cuts (safely!). It helps them learn coordination and knife skills, and lets them contribute in the kitchen.
