Having good knives to make meal times a breeze is essential when cooking in the kitchen, which is why we’re so excited to bring you the Wiltshire Staysharp Duo Set review.
For the Wiltshire Staysharp Duo Set review we’re sending MoM Members this knife duo to tackle everyday food prep in their own kitchens, before coming back to share their thoughts and opinions with us here.

For the Wiltshire Staysharp Duo Set review we’re sending MoM Members the Duo Set valued at $46. We’re asking MoM Members to use the knives for their food prep then come back to MoM to tell all. We can’t wait to see if our MoM Members knives stay sharp!
Stay sharp knives are my favourite knife in the kitchen, so many times I have been blown away by how sharp and safe they are to use. You will not be disappointed with this product. And will be bragging to your family and friends about how amazing they are, because I have.
I have now been using the Wiltshire staysharp duo for over a month and a half… I can’t use anything else now haha. They’re very comfortable and considering I have not so strong palms and hands, I find these Pretty Easy to use and very comfortable. The added benefit of not going blunt is so lovely. I just try and be careful since these can be sharp at certain angles. Wash them with water immediately after use to make them live longer than 10 years haha. Go for it mums.
These Wiltshire Stay Sharp knives are amazing! The built in sharpener means your knives are sharp every time you use them! I have some older ones and noticed that these new ones have a marking on where the knife blade should go in (I did put the knife in upside down in the older ones I had). So this improvement is fantastic!
Having the cover also means they’re safer when stored in the drawer.
I love how they aren’t expensive but still have such amazing quality ! The sharpening cover means they remain sharp after and before every use ! They are super easy to hold
Made prepping meals 10x easier using the Wiltshire duo set over my expensive knifes I normally use ! Seriously believe they are even sharper and easier to hold also!
Have been recommended to family members to go purchase
I have been really, really impressed with this knife duo, especially considering the price point! I have spent hundreds of dollars over the years investing in quality knife sets, however these two knives have been just as good quality as my expensive knives. The self sharpener systems is a fantastic idea; not only does it ensure that the knives remain sharp at all times, but it also protects the knives when not in use. I even found it to work brilliantly on other knives!
If you’re looking for a couple of knives to use in the kitchen but not splurge big dollars on a large knife set, then this duo is a fantastic purchase. Highly recommended!
These Wiltshire staysharp knives are fantastic! The sharpening covers are super convenient and means that my knives are ready to use! These knives cut really well when preparing meals and make my time in the kitchen a breeze. I would definitely recommend these knives to anyone who loves cooking with sharp knives and getting the job done much quicker!
I am loving the Wiltshire Staysharp Knife Duo Set. It is helping make life in the kitchen much more enjoyable and quicker. Cutting is a breeze. 2 different knives for different uses cover most things. My husband even likes using these knives.
The only thing I don’t like is how you get the metal burrs from the sharpening process, so each time you take the knife out it needs wiping quickly, but this is unavoidable. It’s not that bad and still a great product. Would recommend these knives.
I was super excited to be selected for this review – not only do I love the brand Wiltshire, but love to cook and bake – so this was right up my alley.
It’s great that this comes with a clever built in sharpener – I don’t really sharpen my knives like I should so this is a bonus that means no thinking or looking for the sharpener.
They were both easy to hold (ergonomic), glides to cut whatever I wanted without too much pressure and as these are new, have only been handing washing which is a breeze.
As a mum of 2 young boys who would eat watermelon for breakfast, lunch and tea (and everything in between!) it’s always been an expensive time buying pre cut watermelon as I just never had a decent knife or the confidence it was going to be sharp enough to buy in bulk and cut myself! We had my sons birthday party just as our knives arrived and they were incredible! We have used them daily since for a whole number of food items and they have remained as sharp as since we removed from the packet – which might I add was the best packet with its easy to open functionality! We love that the knives can live safely in the drawers with the blade covered that also doubles as its in built sharpener. They wash easy and am genuinely looking forward to bulk watermelon this summer! Thank you Wiltshire for creating two magical knives.
I am insanely impressed by these knives! I cut up a fruit platter in record time because everything just cut like soft butter. I’m so used to our other knives being more like sawing through a tree trunk to get it done.
I particularly love the case they come in which makes them a lot safer to be stored away. Obviously, with the amazing added bonus that they keep the knife super sharp!
For a budget friendly knife these are great! They keep their sharpness well, they dull a little bit but they stay sharp enough to still make chopping a breeze.
Easy to handle and as safe as a knife can be, we love the case they come in. Definitely make you feel a bit safer when you have a climbing toddler forever finding new ways to break into the kitchen cupboards.
Stay sharp knives are my favourite knife in the kitchen, so many times I have been blown away by how sharp and safe they are to use. You will not be disappointed with this product. And will be bragging to your family and friends about how amazing they are, because I have.
It’s always great to use a good quality sharp knife and I really liked these. They aren’t too heavy or too light so are easy to control. They are lovely and sharp and seem to have lasted really well. Only time will tell if they stay that way. But so far so good.

Bought some of these after seeing on Mouth of Mums….they are great quality and extremely sharp have already cut myself…hand wash them as dishwasher can leave rust stains after a while..My Mum akways had Wiltshire knives when I was growing up so they have been around for many years so this gives me faith in the product a bit exoensive but worth it.
I started off with just a single knife and was so pleased with it that I am going to replace the knives I have already. You feel like nothing is too much for these knives.
I really liked these knife. The concept and ideas were great. I really liked how they came in a cover with a built in sharpener. I just wish they were dishwasher safe and a little bit more sharper for those harder foods. I have smaller hands so the handle shape didn’t suit my hand size so it wasn’t easier to hold. My husband also didn’t like the handle shape.
Overall is a good product with a great concept behind it
The Duo set by Wiltshire includes the 15cm Santoku knife & a 13cm utility knife. Both knives come with a built in sharpening slot in the scabbard ensuring your knives are always sharp and protected.
The 15cm Santoku knife is perfect for slicing and dicing vegetables and herbs while the utility knife it the perfect all rounder. The knives are very easy to use.

Anyone who loves to cook would definitely love a good and sharp knife.
The Wiltshire Staysharp knives come with a cover for the knives which have am built knife sharpener.
My favourites from this review-
– Great idea for the knives cover for added safety
– Genius for having inbuilt knife sharpener
– Well crafted blade and grooves on the knife.
– Stylish and durable.
Cons –
I did not like the design as when you have a lot of chop your hands start to hurt because of the short handles and not much support for grip. The knives if not cleaned and dried straight away start to form discolouration on the blade sort of rust like.
Otherwise, really enjoyed the experience of the sharp, fine and crisp cutting of the Wiltshire Knives.
These Wiltshire Staysharp Knives are truly superior in quality. My husband and I were actually surprised as to how good these knives are. Here in action is the 15cm Santoku knife cutting through the toughest of tough pineapple! Highly recommend this duo, priced at $46 for the 2, it’s a product I wouldn’t go past at Big W.
These Wiltshire Stay Sharp knives are amazing! The built in sharpener means your knives are sharp every time you use them! I have some older ones and noticed that these new ones have a marking on where the knife blade should go in (I did put the knife in upside down in the older ones I had). So this improvement is fantastic!
Having the cover also means they’re safer when stored in the drawer.
I’ve gone through knife set after knife set, purely because I’m not one to sharpen knives often (if at all) and they end up completely blunt and dangerous to use. This set, is genius!!!!! For one, I keep my knives in a drawer, so the fact that it has a cover, is already a bonus for when I stick my hand in to grab a knife quickly without so much as a glance. And then without the need of a built in sharpener?! That in itself is a godsend for lazy people like me! Lol
Though I should mention, a quick wipe before using each time is necessary to wipe off little metal bits from sharpening
I have now been testing these knives out for a while and I have to say they are on another level compared to my old ones. The quality is fantastic, they slice through soft tomato without squishing them at all, cut sandwiches and rolls without any effort, cut up fruit and vegetables easily and wash up great. The built in sharpener is excellent, super easy to use and I love that everytime they get washed, put away and pulled out the for the next use they are as sharp as the first time I used them. I am quite picky with knives as is my husband and we have been beyond impressed. We will be buying more to replace all of our current knives!
I love how they aren’t expensive but still have such amazing quality ! The sharpening cover means they remain sharp after and before every use ! They are super easy to hold

These knives are great.
They are amazingly sharp, easy to hold and use and don’t feel heavy or clunky.
I’m not the best chef but these helped me to get a really fine dice, to debone meat and to whip up quick fruit trays and veggie medleys in seconds.
I love these knives and will slowly replace my knife block with these knives.
I don’t usually get excited over knives but these are so good!!! They are light and easy to use, the blades are super sharp and I was able to get a nice fine chop with very little effort.
The case with inbuilt sharpener makes it feel like a new knife each time you pull it out and also protects it whilst being stored.
These knives easily cut through meat, watermelon skin, frozen mango and helped fillet a fish. They are extremely versatile and are so nice to use, even my partner wanted to help chop things for dinner just so he could have a turn and he never helps….like ever!!!
The Wiltshire stay sharp knives really do stay sharp. The ergonomic grip makes it easy to hold for cutting and slicing and are a gem for food prep. I used the 15cm Santoku knife for slicing chicken and beef and the 13cm utility knife perfect for every day use such as slicing fruit and veggies. I highly recommend this duo, easy to use, clean and safe to store in the in-built sharpener.

Mums Reveal Their Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips
Whether you’re a seasoned or first-time mum, protecting your baby’s delicate skin is right up there on the priorities list. Because when their skin is irritation-free, it really does make for a happier bub! Anyone who’s had to deal with nappy rash (me included!) knows it’s an inescapable mum truth.
Having skin irritation as an adult is super distracting and annoying. So just imagine what that’s like for our teeny babies and toddlers, who need to focus on sleep, eat and play. No wonder they can be so upset when they have nappy rash.
One thing you do need to ditch when it comes to nappy rash is mum guilt. It happens despite our best efforts. But it is helpful if you can get ahead of the game by doing as much as you can to try and prevent nappy rash in the first place.
We asked our hundreds of thousands of Mouths of Mums members for their tried-and-true, trusted nappy rash tips, and their responses came down to four key tips. So if you’re about to have your first baby, or your fifth, it’s worth popping on the kettle and reading through what’s helped other mums.
Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips From Mums
What we love about these tips is they’re perfect for mums and expecting mums, and they’re really simple to do. Everything from what to use and what to steer clear of, to helpful hints on caring for delicate baby skin.
1. Nappy Free Time
“As much free nappy time as possible. Lay baby on a blanket covered with a towel on the floor, without a nappy on, if possible in front of a warm sunny window.” – Joanne W.
We love nappy free time for newborn and toddlers (although it’s a lot harder to get them to stay in one place!). And while nappy free time is one of the most popular nappy rash tips among our mums, using the right nappy also plays a huge part in protecting against irritation on your baby’s skin. For example, Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants have clever Rapid-Dry™ Technology, which instantly absorbs for drier skin. And they’re perfect for day and night, with up to 12 hours of leakage protection.
2. Change Nappies Frequently
“For me, what worked on my two kids is not leaving them in soiled nappies too long. I definitely changed as soon as they were wet and let their skin air dry before placing a new nappy on. I would rather go through more nappies than have to deal with the uncomfortable rash they would feel.” – MoM Member
Frequent nappy changes are a fail-safe way to keep moisture, but it’s not always practical (babies just love to fill their nappies while you’re out and about!) Huggies Newborn Nappies are designed to help protect a baby’s delicate skin with a zinc-enriched layer*, clinically proven to help protect against skin irritation.
3. Use A Barrier Cream
“My mum put me onto Zinc and Caster Oil cream. It is FABULOUS stuff! It’s very thick and sticks like you know what to a blanket hehe I tried literally everything and this was the only stuff that helped.” – Trudes
Using a barrier cream was another really popular tip from our mums. But did you know that Huggies Newborn Nappies are the only nappy with a zinc enriched layer. The zinc oxide in Huggies Newborn Nappies is the same ingredient found in many nappy rash creams, which helps to protect against irritation with visibly less redness on skin. They’re also endorsed by the Australian College of Midwives and the number one choice in Australian hospitals.
4. Choose Gentle
“Don’t use scented wipes. Flannel and warm water is the best.” – Justine F
Using the most natural product possible for wiping a baby’s delicate skin to prevent irritation is a tip that’s been passed down from generation to generation – and it’s still a great one. But something lots of mums don’t consider that a nappy itself can help protect against skin irritation. Huggies Newborn Nappies are clinically proven* to help protect against skin irritation while Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants keep up with wriggly little ones while providing superior dryness, making them perfect for active toddlers.
Nappy Rash Myths & Facts
🚫 Myth: Nappy rash is only caused by wet nappies. ✅ Fact: It’s true that moisture does play a role in nappy rash, it can also be caused by moisture friction, bacteria, and even what the nappy is made from.
It’s why choosing a nappy that’s specifically designed for skin protection is really important.
🚫 Myth: Cloth nappies are better at preventing nappy rash than disposable nappies. ✅ Fact: When it comes to nappy rash, there’s not really any need to compare cloth and disposable nappies, because it’s all about keeping baby dry. The longer baby can stay dry, the better.
🚫 Myth: Nappy rash creams are the only way to protect against irritation. ✅ Fact: A good nappy with a zinc enriched layer can also help to protect against irritation.

*Zinc as Zinc Oxide. Tested on adult skin as a suitable substitute for baby skin. *#1 choice in Australian hospitals based on sales data.
My first born had terrible nappy rash and ulcers from acid urine and none of the specialists prescription creams did anything. I finally used Petroleum Jelly and it cleared up his skin very quickly and kept future rashes at bay. It is cheap and easy to use and works the best of anything.
Any redness can be resolved with a tub of Sudocrem. It’s a cream that smells like lavender. Very pleasant and usually works quickly within the first application.
Take it with you everywhere. It helps poo nappy changes. Just apply on bottom area to prevent future nappy rash. Your baby will be happy with it on. It doesn’t feel cold like a wet wipe.

I had issues with my son pooping a lot as a newborn. Sometimes it can be really hard to keep the rash at bay if you have a child that is constantly doing that. There is some acidity in the excrement and that can cause burning before it’s even been against their skin for long. I used to use paw paw cream on him and that worked best as a barrier.
Nappy Rash can be so raw and painful and i always worried so much when our babies had a bout of it. I remember trying so many things but always found good old petroleum jelly used regularly would help in keeping it at bay. There are some great suggestions in the article.
I did find that not all nappy rash creams are as good as each other. After trialing many brands I settled on Sudocrem as the best for me and my baby. Changing nappies frequently and air time is also very important.
There are so many common sense tip in this article and they are tips that we followed. We kept everything as natural as possible on very soft and sensitive skin. We went with plenty of nappy free times and we were very fortunate to not encounter issues with nappy rash.
This article describes very much what we always have done: frequent nappy changes, plenty of bare bum time, no fragrances also not in soaps and a good nappy rash cream. It can become more challenging when your child has diarrhea; in which case bare bum time becomes more complex and the skin more irritated in which the gentle washing with warm water, patting dry with a soft cotton flannel and good zinc cream is more important
Even though I agree that prevention is key, I also think it’s important to have a good barrier cream to hand to help at the first signs of trouble. There are lots of good brands, you can pick any really that suits your baby’s skin. But use it liberally when you need it!
Yay! First time seeing my own comment in an article! *happy dance*
But yes, i do swear by changing their nappies as soon as it’s soiled. It’s what worked for us for both children! We always go prepared and change either before going out, during or in the car boot if we really had to
Nappy rash is horrible and prevention is definately better than cure. This is a fantastic article with some great tips. Especially the changing of the nappy frequently. Unfortunately sometimes especially once they’re on solids and their poops get yucky a little nappy rash can be unavoidable in which case a small amount of sudocreme clears it up quickly.
We found that changing nappies frequently was key for us. And once the kids starting sleeping for long periods at night, we started using the really good quality nappies – Huggies, as it happens – while cheaper nappies were still okay for the day and frequent changes. Nappies do vary! .
This is a really great reminder that nappy rash can happen but there are some great tips to help try and avoid it. I use to do a lot of nappy free time with my daughter when we were home as she had sensitive skin and I layered the barrier cream on all the time, especially at night.
