[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best knife set I’ve ever owned. The knives are SO sharp, and there’s a great variety in the 13-piece set.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We desperately wanted and needed new knives. There is one key style not incised in this set that is a favorite that we'll likely add on but they are wonderful in sharpness and precision. The handles do have a texture to them that I'm not quite fond of. They look great, but feel almost chalky which may be fine for some but is the reason I didn't give 5 stars. I really don't like how that feels in my hand.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good, these seem to keep a very sharp edge and cut with ease. The ergonomic handle makes the knife very comfortable and they are weighted nicely.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The set looks great and handles well. After a lot of chopping (made Beef Vegetable Soup), knives were sharp and comfortable to use.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this knife set. It’s a tradition in my family to buy knives for each member of the family when they move out. They’re going to be in my kitchen for years to come
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This knife set is visually very appealing. At first I thought the block stand itself was slightly too large, but it sits and points nicely on the counter, and doesn’t stick out too much horizontally. My only complaint is that the four partly serrated knives get caught in the cutting board while slicing, and it’s difficult to maintain speed with them while chopping and cutting. I like using the smaller knives for cutting smaller vegetables, but it’s hard to do so when the knives get caught in the food and then stuck on the board.
