I bought two of these for my (then) 7 year olds, along with a child size cut resistant glove that I also found on amazon. They love to help out in the kitchen and were ready for the next step. This is a real, sharp knife, so it should not be used unsupervised. Even with supervision (and the glove), we've had a couple of nicks, but I think my kids now know how to properly use and handle a chef's knife, and they're only 8. It is perfectly sized for little hands. I would like it even better if it came with a guard for storing. I don't think this knife is for every child. But for those who show an interest in cooking and who have at least one parent who is willing to stand over them and make sure they know how to use it (and who is fully aware that they will get cut and that is sometimes the only way they will learn), then this is a good piece of equipment sized and weighted for younger cooks.
I bought this for my 5 yr old little chef. Safe, actually chops. Nice sturdy handle. He feels like he is using a chef knife just like me in the kitchen. Not so sharp that I have to freak out when he uses it, and I wouldn't recommend for a 3 yr old, but sharp enough to do the job well!
