Beautiful set, sharp knives!
on April 26, 2026

I bought this a little over a month ago and I really am enjoying these knifes. It's block is sleek and fits in well with my kitchen colors. The knives are sharp and make cutting a joy. They seem high quality and I am hand washing after each use just to help them stay pristine.

It has only been a few months and almost every knife in this collection has rust on it. This is my second set and this has never happened before.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
