A cheese plane and a perforated knife solve different serving tasks, so the useful question is not how many pieces a set contains but what each piece is meant to do. For buyers sending an enquiry to Singapore, the practical approach is to match the listed tool functions to your cheese-board brief, then confirm materials, packing list and quotation details for the exact configuration you approve.
Why piece count is a weak way to choose a cheese tool set
The current Juneshing cheese tool collection describes selections by serving function: narrow slicing knives, broad cheese scrapers, forks, perforated blades and cheese planes. A compact three-piece selection serves a different presentation from a six-tool assortment, so compare the function list before the number of tools.
Two current models illustrate the distinction. The Wood Handle Cheese Knife and Plane Set – CK-W02R is described as bringing cheese knives and a cheese plane into one wood-handle selection, with stainless steel blades and wooden handles. The product page notes a perforated blade and a shaving tool, and lists four illustrated cheese tools including a cheese plane. The 6-Piece Stainless Steel Cheese Knife Set – CK-SS01 is described as an all-stainless-steel six-piece set with a coordinated metal finish, and its page notes that narrow, broad and perforated blade profiles serve different tasks.
Neither description promises a fixed shaving thickness for the plane or non-stick performance for any blade. Those are not stated specifications, so they should not appear in your buying brief as expected features.
Match the plane and the perforated knife to serving tasks
A cheese plane is a shaving-style tool. A perforated knife has holes in the blade, which the collection page treats as its own serving function alongside narrow and broad blades. Start from the cheeses and the presentation style in your retail brief, then decide which of those two functions your assortment actually needs.
- If the brief centres on shaved or thin servings: the plane is the relevant tool, and the CK-W02R page suggests reviewing the plane opening, blade profile and handle attachment alongside the intended cheese types.
- If the brief centres on a coordinated all-metal look: CK-SS01 keeps a single stainless steel appearance across its cutting and serving tools.
- If the brief needs both functions: verify that both appear in the component list rather than in a lifestyle photograph alone.
The CK-SS01 description also advises comparing cutting and serving functions rather than choosing by piece count alone — the same logic applies to a plane-plus-knife selection.
Buyer checks before approving a quotation
Both current product pages frame several figures as listed reference terms that need confirmation. Treat them as questions for the sales team, not as settled order facts.
| Check | What the source states | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum order | A 1,000 pcs minimum is listed for both CK-W02R and CK-SS01 | Whether the quantity is measured per individual tool or per complete set, and the current minimum |
| Production lead time | A 35–45 day lead time is listed for both models | The current production schedule for your selected configuration |
| Logo and custom packaging | A 2,000 piece threshold is listed for logo and custom-packaging requests | Artwork position, finish, packaging layout and the order unit |
| Component list | CK-W02R lists four component references with sizes and weights; CK-SS01 lists four component references | Whether the quoted set matches the illustrated tools and the approved drawing |
| Board or accessory inclusion | No serving board is stated as included | Whether any board or extra accessory is explicitly named in the quotation and packing list |
The collection page states that a cheese knife set listing does not automatically include a serving board, so do not assume one from a photograph. For plated or wooden-handle tools, the collection page also advises obtaining care instructions matched to the selected finish and construction.
What to include in the purchasing brief
- The model reference, such as CK-W02R or CK-SS01.
- The selected pieces and quantity, with the order unit defined.
- Packing or logo requirements, if the 2,000 piece threshold applies.
- The Singapore delivery destination and required delivery date.
- A reference image if you are choosing from several blade or handle options.
Both product pages list this same set of details for obtaining a price. Sending a complete brief reduces the chance that a quotation reflects a different assortment, finish or packaging format from the one you intend to approve.
Sample and final packing list
CK-W02R’s page asks buyers to obtain a sample of the exact configuration and approve the final packing list before bulk production. The same sequence — sample first, packing list second, bulk order after approval — is a sensible buyer check for either model.
When you review the sample, work from the component reference on the product page rather than from general expectations. Compare the approved drawing and packing list against the sample you receive. Ask for care instructions for the finish and construction you selected, and note any difference between the illustrated tools and the quoted configuration before you release the order.
Frequently asked questions
Does CK-W02R include a cheese plane?
Yes. The CK-W02R product page states that the product image and component specification show a cheese plane alongside knife profiles, and the page describes four illustrated cheese tools including a cheese plane. Confirm the exact assortment with the sample and quotation.
What is the listed minimum order for these two sets?
Both the CK-W02R and CK-SS01 pages list a minimum order of 1,000 pcs, with a note to confirm whether the quantity is quoted per tool or per set. Ask the sales team to confirm the order unit, exact configuration and current minimum in your quotation.
Can I request a sample and custom packaging?
Both product pages describe samples and packaging options as available for discussion. Ask for current sample cost, freight, logo options and packaging MOQ for your selected configuration.
Does either set include a serving board?
No board is stated as included, and the collection page advises against assuming one from a lifestyle photograph. The quotation and packing list must explicitly identify any serving board or additional accessory.
Is a fixed shaving thickness or non-stick coating stated?
No. Neither current product description states a fixed shaving thickness for the plane or a non-stick guarantee for the blades. Treat both as unknown until the supplier states them for your exact configuration.
