Customer Reviews for Rada - Essential Oak 8 Piece Knife Block Set, Handles - Black

I was constrained by finances when needing to purchase new knives. They are sharp, but the blades are thin, actually curve when pressure is applied to the side. They are not full tang, and the handle on the Cook's knife has a raised resin line that is rough and causes irritation. The block doesn't really fit the larger knives/no customized slots and came with one foot off that my husband had to super glue back in place. They're rubber and only stapled onto the block. The knives work, and are budget friendly made in the US, and things made in the US are really hard to find these days.

I have used Rada knives for about 20 years. Still have my first knife - small chef knife. I have also given them as gifts.
A little about my background - I am a bit of a knife -guy, and folks ask me for advice about knives -kitchen, survival, tactical, self-defense, etc.
As a former Army soldier (Recon) - knives are more than a tool, one's life can depend on them.
Rada knives are impressive. They may appear too thin for serious work in the kitchen - until you use them. The hollow ground edge is crazy sharp - and more importantly, can be resharpened easily. They are light and easy to use for hours. My experience and those that I have given these knives to - is excellent. The only complaint is they are 'too sharp'. Highly recommend-if you want something for real use, not for showing off. I have discovered many cooking professionals use these as well. Best kept secret in the kitchen knife world. And made in the USA.

I understand the caution about washing knives in dishwasher, however it did not mention the discoloration of the knives after one washing in the dishwasher would be significant. The knives are great, but the information regarding care of the product was not clear.

My husband has been unhappy with every single steak knife I ever bought. Until now - he loves the RADA steak knives. I love to cook, and with all the chopping and slicing for winter food, the whole set in their beautiful block are an early Christmas present from me to me. And thank you for supporting the causes I believe in!

I LOVE this. The block could be of better quality, but the knives are the BEST ever. I would have purchased this for the bread knife alone. I love the RADA knives!

I have had Rada knives for years, they are beyond my favorite knives to have! I was so excited to get the knife block with some new knives and also the 6 slots on the bottom to hold my existing knives I already had.

I have had 2 different RADA pairing knives for about 20 years. They are the sharpest knives I have ever had. I never even thought about trying to find them on the internet until recently. I knew them as something you get at fund raisers or someone who sales them. The oak block is perfect and the new set of knives are as great as my original 2. BUY THEM!! You won’t be sorry.
