Professional chef's knife set

[KarlC]

I don't mean this to be an advert for my goods, but I recently won a professional chef's knife set and it seems nowhere will let me sell it.

I'd obviously only sell it to an adult, but Ebay et al seem to prohibit selling professional tools of this sort despite the fact that they've got thousands of other adverts for potentially dangerous things.

Can anyone advise on any chefs' marketplaces I could try to sell this at?

May thanks for reading.

Why not keep it and use it? Or donate it to me if you don't want it, or wouldn't be able to sell it. :-)

What knives are they? There are a lot of knife sets sold as professional chef's knives that are not, I don't want you to be chasing rainbows about how good these knives may be.

They are the IO Shen Japanese Steel knives. It's a set of four knives with a magnetic block.

IO Shen .. are the real deal. You can sell them on Amazon.

Thanks alavahaf. And I might try the catering colleges too, it feels good knowing that someone honest will get some good use out of them

They are a cracking set of knives, but they might be priced beyond the budget of your average catering college student! That quality of knife is usually purchased as a gradual thing, i.e. birthday and Christmas. If you live in the SE then maybe contact Leiths or Tante Marie, which are private cookery schools and tend to attract mature students having a career change and have a little more disposable income.

How much are they? I need a good set of knives.

Thanks alavahaf, Eccles and nannakath. I speculatively put them on Amazon yesterday for £95, and they sold within thre hours. Great advice, thanks again alavahaf!
