A compact cheese knife is often bought as part of a broader cheese-board or gift assortment, not as a stand-alone tool. The practical question for a buyer is which listed model, blade set and handle theme fits the retail or gift presentation you have in mind — and what the quotation actually covers. This guide uses current Juneshing listings as the evidence base and keeps the decision focused on verifiable model attributes, sampling and quotation checks.
Start with the serving task, not the piece count
The category page explicitly advises comparing serving tasks rather than choosing by piece count alone. It names narrow slicing knives, broad cheese scrapers, forks, perforated blades and cheese planes as functional differences worth comparing. A compact selection suits a different presentation from a six-tool assortment, so decide first which functions your range needs.
For a small-format or compact option, the listed reference is the 4-Piece Color Handle Cheese Knife Set – CK-P01, described as a compact four-piece set with stainless steel blades and colorful PP handles. Its four tools are listed as a cheese knife, a cheese scraper, a cheese knife with hole and a cheese fork. If you need a larger cheese-service assortment, the 6-Piece Stainless Steel Cheese Knife Set – CK-SS01 lists six cutting and serving tools with stainless steel blades and handles.
Compare only current verifiable model attributes
The table below uses only figures published on the Juneshing product pages. Where a listing does not state a value, this table leaves it blank rather than estimating.
| Attribute | CK-P01 | CK-SS01 | CK-CW01 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Product type | Color handle cheese knife set | 6-piece stainless steel cheese knife set | Rosewood handle cheese knife set |
| Material and finish | Stainless steel blades with colorful PP handles | Stainless steel blades and handles | Stainless steel blades with riveted rosewood handles |
| Selection | Four cheese tools with different blade profiles | Six cheese cutting and serving tools | Six cheese tools with distinct blade shapes |
| Listed minimum order | 1,000 pcs | 1,000 pcs | 1,000 pcs |
| Listed production lead time | 35–45 days | 35–45 days | 35–45 days |
| Logo / custom packaging threshold | 2,000 pieces | 2,000 pieces | 2,000 pieces |
These figures are described on the pages as model-specific reference terms. Each product page also asks the buyer to confirm whether the quantity is measured per individual tool or per complete set, which is the single most important clause to clarify before you compare quotes across models.

The CK-SS01 and CK-CW01 pages also publish component reference entries with listed sizes and weights. Treat those as reference data to match against your own drawing, not as a substitute for an approved drawing.
Sample and quotation checks
The second half of a small cheese knife sourcing decision is administrative rather than technical. Use the following checklist before you approve any bulk order.
- Confirm the order unit. Ask whether the quoted quantity is per individual utensil or per complete set, as each product page advises.
- Request the labeled packing list. The category page recommends a packing list that makes every included piece clear.
- Ask whether a board is included. The category page states that a cheese knife set listing does not automatically include a board, and the CK-CW01 page repeats that a serving board is not included unless specified in the quotation and approved packaging list.
- Review finish and colour on the physical sample. The CK-P01 page warns against determining a custom colour order from photographs alone; the CK-CW01 page advises checking wood appearance and finish variation on the sample.
- Match care instructions to the selected construction. The category page asks buyers to obtain care instructions matched to the selected finish and construction.
- Confirm branding terms separately. Artwork position, logo process, packaging layout, sample cost and packaging minimums are confirmation items, not assumptions.
What to include in the inquiry
The individual product pages suggest sending the model reference, selected pieces, quantity, packing or logo requirements, destination and required delivery date. Adding a reference image helps when choosing between several blade or handle options. For a multi-model range, compare the cheese knife sets and serving tools category first, then pull specific model pages.
Build a brief that covers the whole range
A purchase brief that works across several cheese-tool models usually records the target retail channel, the tool functions required, handle style and finish, quantity, presentation box, and the destination. This mirrors the category page’s own recommendation to identify channel, functions, handle style, finish, quantity and presentation.
If your selection includes natural-wood handles, colour PP handles, all-metal finishes or gold and multicolour presentations, each finish may carry different sampling and care considerations. The category page lists stainless steel, wood-handle, colourful PP-handle, gold-finish and rainbow-finish selections as current options to compare.
When you are ready to price a defined configuration, use the model pages for CK-P01, CK-SS01 and CK-CW01 to send model references, quantities, packaging brief and destination. Juneshing describes itself as a trading and manufacturing company focused on grill, barbecue and kitchenware products including spatulas and kitchen knives.
