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.
Staysharp knives have a clever self-sharpening system so the knives stay sharp! You can ensure no more blunt knives. Simply insert and withdraw the knife from the scabbard for a sharp knife every time.
All good things come in twos, like this Wiltshire Staysharp Duo Set. The Santoku Knife is comfortable with mincing, slicing, dicing or chopping; and the Utility Knife feels right at home cutting small fruit, vegetables and herbs.
It’s a partnership of all-purpose and precision. Quick and easy. Good looks and functionality. Think of these Staysharp knives as short cuts for everyday food prep, so you’ve got more time on your hands.
Features of the Wiltshire Staysharp Duo Set include …
Patented 2 stage, self-sharpening system
Improved cutting performance
Slim design scabbard, takes less space
Ergonomic, triple rivet handle for comfort, control and durability
10 year guarantee
Where can I buy the Wiltshire Staysharp Duo Set?

More about the Wiltshire Staysharp Duo Set Review
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

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.

“My Floor Has Never Been So Clean”: The Mop That’s Winning Over Mums
Mopping isn’t exactly the chore most of us look forward to, but like most mums, for Katrina Macilroy, it’s unavoidable.
With three teenagers, a husband, a dog, two cats and timber flooring throughout most of her home, there’s plenty to keep her mop busy.
“I thought the toddler stage was hard, but teenagers take it to a whole other level,” Katrina told Mouths of Mums.
She describes herself as a ‘full-time Uber driver’ for her three kids, but when she’s home, she may as well be a full-time cleaner.
Her husband is a concreter, the family has plenty of sand coming inside and, with teenagers touching everything, the floors quickly show the evidence of a full family life.
“I have to mop like every second day because the floor gets marks,” she said.
So when Katrina was given the chance to try the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean TURBO Mop & Bucket Set, she was keen to see whether it could actually make one of her least favourite cleaning tasks any easier.
“I didn’t have high hopes for it to start with, because I’ve used spin mops before and I’d been disappointed,” she admitted.
But it didn’t take long for her to change her mind. One of the first things Katrina noticed was just how easy the mop was to use.
The foot pedal made wringing the mop quick and simple, without having to stop and fiddle with anything.
“It was so easy to spin it,” she says. “It wasn’t like you’re spinning it for hours or anything.”
She was also impressed by how quickly the mop itself could be put together, and the simple button that releases the mop head for washing.
“That simple press notion, everyone can do that. So I love that.”
It’s The Little Things That Add Up
For Katrina, who regularly finds herself cleaning up after a busy family, these little details made a surprisingly big difference. She also loved the triangular mop head, particularly when it came to getting into the corners and edges that her previous mop struggled with.
“The triangle design makes it easy to get into all the little corners,” she says.
But ultimately, the big question was whether it actually cleaned her floors. Katrina’s answer was an enthusiastic yes.
“My floor has never been so clean,” she says.
Katrina was also surprised by how light and manoeuvrable the mop felt, because at just 4’11”, she says mopping can sometimes be an uncomfortable job.
“I’m not a tall person, so trying to mop is always just a horrible experience.”
But she found the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean TURBO Mop & Bucket Set easy to move around and able to go in different directions without feeling heavy or awkward.
And it wasn’t just the mop itself that won Katrina over. She says the bucket design solved one of her biggest mopping frustrations: accidentally tipping the bucket over.
With timber floors, getting too much water onto the floor is something she tries hard to avoid. “The amount of mop buckets I’ve tipped over and just gone everywhere,” she says.
That can turn a simple cleaning job into another mess to deal with, particularly when you’re suddenly scrambling for towels and a dry mop head.
But Katrina says the Vileda bucket feels much more stable because of its design.
And for someone who mops as often as she does, she says that has saved her time. “This thing has saved me so much time, I can’t get over it.”
The Only Mop You’ll Need
Katrina also admits that she’d previously convinced herself she needed a steam mop. She even bought one, only to discover that plugging it in every time she wanted to clean wasn’t exactly appealing.
“You have to plug it in like a vacuum. Like, that’s not fun, I don’t want to do that.”
After trying the Vileda, she says she’s no longer convinced she needs one.
“Why do you need a steam mop when you can get this one?”
For Katrina, the combination of being lightweight, easy to wring, simple to manoeuvre and able to get into those awkward corners has made mopping feel much less frustrating. And despite going into the trial with low expectations, she’s now very happy to recommend it.
“I’m not trying to sell you a product, but I’m just saying that I’m very impressed with it. It’s really good.”
Her final verdict?
“It’s been really, really good. Recommend!”
This Real Story was provided as part of a paid sponsorship opportunity. Katrina was chosen to share her story because she was sent out and tried the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean TURBO Mop & Bucket Set, and genuinely loved it! And Vileda is so confident they’ve made the best spin mop ever, they’re backing the new & improved Easy Wring & Clean TURBO with a 5 Year Guarantee.
This mop so good and the views all are positive so I just purchased one on milkrun through Woolworths and it come with 2 mop head refills. Can’t wait to use it.
Yes, I couldn’t agree more. The Vileda spin mop is by far my favourite mop for a good thorough clean at home. I even got the landlords to purchase one for the holiday house I clean to make cleaning a breeze and get the job done properly. I always grab a spare when they’re out for half price.
Ah, I received a ‘you’re a finalist’ email from MoM for this fantastic mop but didn’t receive anything beyond that. I was looking forward to giving this a try to compare the three existing options I have but alas. Looks good, fingers crossed I can try it in the near future!
Omg! Yes! With 4 dogs and 4 teens AND the guests they bring home with them LOL our timber floors and tiles don’t stand a chance! I would love to see them add some wheels to the bottom of the bucket so that you don’t have to carry the bucket around with you.
This sounds like an excellent mop that makes cleaning so easy! I love a product that not only is as effective as advertised but makes a job less grueling. I gotta say though, a steam mop that plugs in sounds like an awful idea. I have a tineco floor mop, which is cordless and charges at a base, and it’s incredible on my white tiles.

The greatest thing to make sliced bread
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.
