Good knives - Tremendous value!

Had to give it the 5th star for the value. Don't get me wrong, these are very good knives, but better ones do exist. But this line, this set won me over. It has everything you could want to cook with for a very long, long time.
For the record, I never thought I would be a fan of an all metal knife. But like many things these days, I'm an old dog learning new tricks. This knife - this entire line - rocks! And it looks good too!
These are fully forged knives - a sign of top quality. They are made with one of Zwilling's proprietary steels - so they won't stain, they will stay sharp. And they are designed for comfort with optimal sized grips for most people. They are also lighter than most knives. So if weight is an issue for you, you will like these knives.
Love these knives for my friends kids weddings. thee modern look works for all of their kitchens. Now that Black and White kitchens are so popular, this is the perfect look. its great that they are great quality knives to boot!
Very sleek, contemporary German design. If you want a set of knives that will look great in a contemporary styled kitchen, this set is a great match. Nice balance and weight plus they stay sharp with regular use of the sharpening steel. The black block offers a unique look that differs from most knife blocks. I purchased this set for a friend that's a creative home chef and he absolutely loves them.
I loved how these knives felt in my hand - comfortable, lightweight, yet feel sturdy. I also like that there are 2 paring knives for different tasks! Nice to also have the 4 steak knives for those meat occasions! Overall, a great block set for a very good value!
This set has a sleek modern look for your kitchen. I love that the handles are sandblasted which means they have a rougher texture to prevent slipping so you still have a comfortable grip if they get wet. Very sharp too!
I love the looks of this set but am equally impressed the quality. It has a very nice balance and the handle is textured so no slipping even when it gets wet. The blade is sharp and I’ve been able to maintain the that sharpness.
