Thai Cook Knife from Kiwi Brand #171 is very versatile for all cuttings. It is light and durable. The knife is made of stainless steel blade with wooden handle and just fit in your hand. The blade is about 6.25 inch long, handle is 4.5 inch long. - High-quality hardened stainless steel blade - Well balanced fine wooden handle - Easy to sharpen and maintain the blades edge SPECIFICATIONS Knife No: 171 Total Length : 28cm Blade : 16.0cm x 4.5cm Made In Thailand Review: Good, cheap knife that's a fave of mine - This thin, inexpensive knife has become one of the most used knives I own, beating out my Zwillgs, Kitchen Aid, Cuisinart, etc...yes the very tip is easily bent, but this thing takes such a sharp edge so easily with just a few strokes on a white Arkansas stone that slicing through tomatoes is almost surgical. The shape of the blade also works well with my style of dicing or chopping veggies, and the angled tip makes scraping small portions of these chopped or diced veggies from the cuttng board into the recipe much easier than the French Chef or Santoku pattern blades. When this wears out or breaks there will be another ordered to replace it, I really like this knife. About the only complaint I could make a s that I wish the handle was a little bit bigger to help accommodate my XXL hands, but that's a minor quibble. Update: I have had this knife for over three and a half years now and it has remained my number one knife for meal prep. It easily takes an incredibly sharp edge and slices clean (and thin if I want) everything from chicken breasts to carrots. I still highly recommend this knife. Review: As good as my more expensive knives - I bought this knife as a cheap replacement knife in case I ever needed it to lend to someone or had an extra person in the kitchen doing work. Not trusting them with one of my $100 MAC knives, this would be a 6-7 dollar knife that they could break without it being a big deal. Wow, I was impressed, the knife is amazingly light, lighter than my MAC and it may be actually sharper. I did an onion cutting test and this Kiwi knife actually cut through the onions with more ease. I think the reason may be due to how the blade edge is curved inward so less pressure is required, but that testifies how sharp it is. It has a slight curve for rocking and a pointed tip if you need to slice with precision. I doubt this knife will hold the same edge for as long as one of my MAC knives, but this is hands down the best 6-7 dollars I've spent on a kitchen knife. For anyone who is looking for a good kitchen knife, I will recommend this one first. Throw away your packaged knife sets with blocks or those dull Victorinoxes. This knife, a bread knife and a paring knife is all you need! ## Features - Exclusively available from the Temple of Thai - Well balanced with double-riveted fine wooden handle - High-quality hardened stainless steel blade - Excellent value for money ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003LIX4QA | | Blade Color | Silver | | Blade Edge | straight_edged | | Blade Length | 6.25 Inches | | Blade Material | Stainless Steel | | Brand | KIWI | | Color | Silver | | Construction Type | Forged | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (791) | | Date First Available | May 10, 2010 | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08851130050043, 08851130080040 | | Handle Material | Stainless,Wood Handle,Stainless Steel,Wooden,Steel | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Is Dishwasher Safe | No | | Item Length | 11.02 Inches | | Item Weight | 2.4 ounces | | Item model number | 171A | | Manufacturer | Kiwi & Kom Kom Product Company., Ltd | | Material | stainless_steel | ## Product Details - **Blade Edge:** straight_edged - **Blade Material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** KIWI - **Color:** Silver - **Handle Material:** Stainless,Wood Handle,Stainless Steel,Wooden,Steel ## Images ![Deba-Style Flexible Thai Knife (#171), Kiwi - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21TDGTjuYqL.jpg) ![Deba-Style Flexible Thai Knife (#171), Kiwi - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31nXYLZGZyL.jpg) ![Deba-Style Flexible Thai Knife (#171), Kiwi - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41hdsEXGvHL.jpg) ![Deba-Style Flexible Thai Knife (#171), Kiwi - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51P6JjxKaAL.jpg) ![Deba-Style Flexible Thai Knife (#171), Kiwi - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51cNbRuOXML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, cheap knife that's a fave of mine *by R***B on September 1, 2019* This thin, inexpensive knife has become one of the most used knives I own, beating out my Zwillgs, Kitchen Aid, Cuisinart, etc...yes the very tip is easily bent, but this thing takes such a sharp edge so easily with just a few strokes on a white Arkansas stone that slicing through tomatoes is almost surgical.

This knife, a bread knife and a paring knife is all you need! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great knife, cheaper in chinatown. *by L***L on January 4, 2013* I'm a professional cook and I own knives that cost way way more than this knife, but I have a great fondness for Kiwi knives. Their thin metal takes an edge very well and holds it relatively well depending on what you use it on. This is strictly for vegetable or boneless meat and fish cutting. I have no experience with their cleaver-type knives, but the chef's style and the "vegetable cleaver" (flat edge, thin blade) are one of the best ways to get the job done. I purchased it online for convenience, but Kiwi knives are easily obtainable for several dollars less in your local Asian kitchen and/or food shop. This is exactly what you should buy if you want an excellent value knife. Instead of picking up a whole set of heavy, dull, thunkers in plastic packaging in a superstore, get one of these and a cheap paring knife. Sharpen if if you know how or want to learn. This is the perfect knife to learn how to use a whetstone with. Throw it out and buy a new one if that's too intimidating. ## Frequently Bought Together - Deba-Style Flexible Thai Knife (#171), Kiwi - Kiwi Brand Stainless Steel 8 inch Thai Chef's Knife No. 21 - Set of Two 6.5" Kiwi Brand Chef Knives # 172 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/7463494-deba-style-flexible-thai-knife-171-kiwi](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/7463494-deba-style-flexible-thai-knife-171-kiwi) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
