[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used a different brand name for many years. I just started using this one and it is so sharp but I don’t feel it as being dangerous. This set is perfect for a daily uses.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set has a great weight to them and are very manageable when cooking. I am not very fond of the plastic handle on the sharp burner but beyond that it is a great set!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comprehensive set of knives that should meet most of my everyday needs. Great value with steak knives!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The knives were packaged very well. They are super sharp and ready for work as soon as they arrive. They are of very high quality steel and construction. They feel very comfortable in your hand and are easy to work with.
My only issue is with the included wood block. It is much lighter in color than in any pictures, I prefer darker. Also, you are left with a few empty slots after all included items are stowed in the block. That just seems odd to include a block that does not property fit the amount of knives you purchased. And the knife slots are in no way matching to the knives in the set. The knives are made in Germany but the block is made in China. You decide.
It's buy once cry once purchase. The shears were replaced with high end American made counterparts. The Japanese, Swedes, English, Americans, and even the French and Koreans can and do make some fabulous steel alloys. For cutlery and wood working blades the German steel is some of the finest available. German canon barrel steel is also insanely tough steel too. These knives take and edge and keep it really well. There are some steels that seem to keep an edge a little longer. I don't know what Wenger used, but that steel is incredible. That is a Swiss made alloy. If you pay for the Zwilling forged steel knives you will have knives that will last you a lifetime, with reasonable care and proper use.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have wanted this set for the longest time and when it was available as a 30th anniversary work gift I had to select it. Love these knives - excellent workmanship and a pleasure to use.
