This six piece set of ‘U’ and ‘V’ shaped garnishing tools is elegantly crafted, razor sharp, and superbly practical for Thai fruit and vegetable carving. Each tool is intelligently designed with its own diametric ‘U’ and ‘V’ equivalents which serve the purpose of cutting clean strips of fruit/vegetable with maximum efficacy and minimum fuss. Handcrafted from high quality stainless steel, these tools are extremely durable and guaranteed not to bend or misshape when in contact with harder types of food. Absolutely essential items for any professional catering business though undoubtedly useful for all levels of technical ability. For further information, please see the tool sizes table below.

Tools such as these have now come to replace the more traditional wooden handled fruit chisels in Thailand because they are easier and safer to control when working on detailed patterns such as fish scales and flower petals. Subsequently, many of the fruit carving books presently on sale at the Temple of Thai encourage the use of garnishing tools in order to apply modern carving techniques to ones presentations.

This fruit carving set includes the set of 6 U and V Garnishing Tools with a Nylon Bag. The nylon roll bag was crafted specifically to accommodate the small tools and knives commonly used in the art of fruit and vegetable carving. Whether you’re an itinerant professional or a self-taught beginner, adequate casing ensures that your blades remain untarnished by foreign elements and safely portable, protecting you from the very sharp pointed blades.

Product Features

• Save time on repetitive tasks
• Light, durable, and versatile
• Essential for professional carvers
• The bag contains a total of 11 pockets, providing enough space for the included set of six U & V tools. The additional pockets can be used if you would like to add the Serrrated Tools to your order.

Please be advised that all metal blades, regardless of their quality, will begin to corrode over time if they are not well maintained. Even stainless steel can rust if it is not properly cared for. The Temple of Thai recommends that you follow the maintenance tips below to ensure that your knife and garnishing tools stay in good condition:

• Always dry your blades thoroughly to protect them from long-term corrosion.
• Try to avoid soaking your knives and other sharp tools in water (or any other liquid) for long periods of time.
• Always keep your blades clean to ensure that the surfaces are chemically neutral.
• Find a good knife oil to prevent blades from rusting, especially if you live by the coast or in a humid climate.
• Keep your blades well sharpened at all times. Blunt blades are generally held to be much more dangerous than sharp ones. For wavy edged tools such as the serrated ‘U’ shaped garnishing tools, use a sharpening steel to sharpen between ridges.
• Lastly, if you're not sure how to sharpen your blades then don't! If the item concerned came with a manual then make sure to read through it. Otherwise, ask a friend or consult the internet. Blade edges can easily be damaged if they are incorrectly sharpened.

Like the ‘U’ and ‘V’ shaped tools, this four piece set of serrated ‘U’ shaped garnishing tools are beautifully handmade from high-strength stainless steel. Ideal for carving out inner flesh or chipping away at the outer skin of fruits and vegetables, these ‘U’ shapes cover a range of different sizes and make an excellent addition to any set of fruit carving tools. Garnishing tools such as these have become increasingly popular in modern Thai fruit carving and are frequently recommended for otherwise time consuming techniques.

Garnishing tools provide fruit carvers with versatility and eliminate tedious and repetitive techniques. Serrated ‘U’ and ‘U’ and ‘V’ shaped garnishing tools are thus especially useful items for commercial enterprises. These serrated edge shapes are particularly handy for ensuring that patterns appear both detailed and consistent.
