A sturdier knife for thicker vegetables and slightly tougher slices - still with the same focus on safety as the rest of the MINI knives.
The knife:
- Rounded tip and extra grip for heavier cuts.
- Handle adapted to a child's hand.
The knife is made in Denmark from reinforced PA6, assembled and packaged in Denmark, and CE-approved.
Recommended from age 3 and must always be used under adult supervision. The knife is made for real cooking and is not a toy.
Getting started
Use the Coarse Knife for firm ingredients such as carrots, potatoes, and squash. Help your child cut calmly and with good control, and always use the knife together with an adult.
How to care for the knife
We recommend washing it by hand with mild dish soap and lukewarm water. Rinse it afterward and dry the knife thoroughly.
If you choose to use the dishwasher, the temperature must be max. 55 °C. Higher heat may cause the knife to change shape. Hand washing is the best choice if you want to take good care of the knife.
Check the knife regularly and replace it if cracks or damage appear.

Enough power for tougher vegetables
Not everything in the kitchen can be cut with a light touch. Cucumbers are easy - carrots, potatoes, and zucchini require a little more. The sturdy knife is the knife your child reaches for when the task requires a little extra force.
Its shape provides a better grip and more control for heavier cuts, without compromising on safety: rounded tip, child-friendly size, and a blade that is sharp enough for the task - not sharper. CE-approved and free from BPA, PFAS, and phthalates.
With the sturdy knife, your child can cut the ingredients for dinner that would otherwise always end up being handled by an adult - and discover that "I can't" actually meant "I haven't tried yet."
Designed for little hands
Sharp enough for vegetables and fruit - not fingers
A real knife with a rounded tip - sharp enough for vegetables and fruit, gentle on fingers. So your child can cut, chop and peel all by themselves
More than a toy
Authentic cooking, together with you
Not plastic toys, but real tools in a child-friendly size. Create memories at the kitchen table while your child learns to cut, chop, and peel - all on their own

"Oskar of course wanted to wear both an apron and a chef's hat when we were going to cook.
He was so proud to cut the bell pepper himself and just had to tell us at dinner what he had made.
It was so lovely to have him in the kitchen."
"Theo is really happy with his MINI Family set, and it's so lovely that he can now join us in the kitchen and actually be allowed to help out.
We especially think the utensils are really good because they are made in a size that fits small hands, while still being genuinely usable.
Theo thinks it's incredibly exciting to be allowed to help with cooking, and the set has definitely made it easier and more fun to include him in the kitchen."
"My granddaughter loves being in the kitchen, and now she finally has the opportunity to do so. We love the kitchen utensils from MINI Family."
"We are so happy with the knives and cutting board in the kitchen. Max is still a little too young for the potato peeler, but the other items are used frequently.
And he absolutely loves the apron and chef's hat so much that he also wants to wear them when he plays in his own little play kitchen."
