Why offer a sommelier knife?

Two gifts are sure to please:

  • Quality cutlery: such as a beautiful Laguiole pocket knife are always appreciated
  • Wine related products: Wine is an attractive and noble product. Related products have flair and usefulness.

 

The sommelier knife unites these two benefits. It is used in many occasions. It is easy to personalize. It communicates and gives exposure to your brand.

Choose materials that will keep on making you look good

There is no worse for a promotional sommelier knife than to look rusted or corroded.

To insure that your gift keeps representing you well, choose a stainless steel knife with or without plastic parts.

Cheap imports won't last.

Make sure that your marking area is large enough

The purpose of a promotional sommelier knife is to remind your customer of your brand. In addition, guests at bars and restaurants will be exposed to it as well.

The larger the marking, the easier it will be to see and the more exposure your brand will get.

Check out all available colors

You put a lot of effort in creating your logo and trade marks. Make sure that your choice of finish for the handle respects your colors specifications. And check that the marking colors are compatible with the handle color.

Check the ergonomic qualities of your knife

As beautiful an object as it may be, looks are not the primary consideration for a sommelier knife. It is a professional tool and the user will cherish it if it is comfortable and feels good in hand.

Make sure you hand test the product before ordering.

Choose a knife size appropriate to the intended use

Choosing the type of sommelier knife you want depends on the intended use.

If your customers are mostly in the restaurant business, pick a 3 piece knife. Also check that the knife easily fits into a pocket.

For a bar operation, a 4 piece knife with a church key opener is best and it can be larger.

For home use, this criterion is less important and the design is the primary consideration.

Make sure that the blade is micro serrated

There is nothing more annoying for a sommelier than a knife blade that does not cut through the bottle capsule easily.

Micro serrations are indispensable for a smooth operation.
