Great for the price point I own a mixed set of Wusthof Gran Prix II and Culinar knives and have used Henckels International and Four star in the past, so my rating for this set will probably sound harsh. I bought this set as a gift because of the quantity and quality of the Amazon.com ratings. Upon delivery, I opened the set up to see what the hype was and (not) to my surprise were great knives for the price point. Great variety of forged knives before you even count the steak knives. Knives were sharp and honed,…
Had these for 2 years so far and love them. They look great on my counter top … Had these for 2 years so far and love them. They look great on my counter top and have functioned very well. I hand clean and dry them after every use as dishwashers and knives should never go together. I also don’t allow them to air dry as water sitting on metal will inevitably cause rust, so why chance it. It’s also necessary to keep expectations realistic. These are not $900 knives and are not going to function as so. However, for the price these are hard to beat. The only thing I don’t love…
Very sharp, exceptional especially for price! Just got these so, while I can’t speak to how long they stay sharp, or how well the in-block sharpener works (I’ll come back later and update), I just had to take a moment to review, because I love these knives.Pros:⢠Sharp – very sharp, cutting meat, fruits, veggies, cheese, and bread with ease. First test was a piece of paper with a few different knives and wow, razor sharp!⢠Balanced – didn’t know what a truly balanced knife felt like until now, very cool indeed…
