This is third set I have purchased. The first is ten years old and still well balanced. The finish has dulled a bit over the last ten years, but not outside of what I expected. The set feels nice in your hand and the knives are sharp. The shape of the butter knife is very effective at spreading butter.
Received this set as part of our wedding registry. Very nice look and will go with any other tableware. Feels good in the hand and the different sizes of utensils is great.
As I just purchased this particular flatware set. I am very satisfied with the balance, ergonomics, finish and minimalistic design. Not to mention the lifetime warranty NOT limited but LIFETIME warranty!
