Had family round for lunch today. Did a very nice cheese board afterwards, which included some Stilton. Anyway we have a nice cutlery canteen for special occasions, which includes one cheese knife. But once knife was used for the Stilton, the Stilton ended up on all the other cheeses, including a nice, delicate goats cheese! So do I invest in more cheese knives for our set which a bit pricey?! Or is the etiquette to have just one knife and not worry?


Serious question about a really non serious issue :-)

I just realised that after I typed it jeremy. sharp as a knife, me. oh... ;)

Thank you all very much for you replies, I can sleep soundly again now. I rather am drawn to the Stilton shovel myself owing to the fact I could quite easily eat a whole block of that good stuff in one sitting. Failing that, one for Stilton, one for the others seems sensible; although ultimately I will now want to find a second knife with 'Stilton' written on the handle, as I can easily see me jumping up mid cheeee cut shouting at an unsuspecting guest 'stop you're using th Stilton knife on the stinking bishop!'


Edited to say Stilton scoop purchased! Thanks all.

    • Calling All Private Chefs – We’re Looking for You! We’re currently looking for talented private chefs in and around East Dulwich (and across London) for a number of exciting upcoming bookings and events.

    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
