Steak knives are poor quality to sharpen
on September 21, 2020

Frequency of use:Daily
Steak knives in this set chipped on the blade edge while sharpening, this happened to every steak knife in the block. I dare not sharpen the larger knives.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Uniquely designed, sharp, well balanced knife set

This knife set came ready to use with an very sharp edge; they didn't require "touch-up" sharpening before first use. All of the knives slice and cut beautifully and are extremely well balanced; the unique bolster/tang and polished surfaces make for a very attractive set. One item of note - the handles are made of a synthetic slightly "grippy" surface that really helps prevent the knives from slipping, especially helpful when the handle or hand is wet. I was concerned that the heavy tang would affect balance but each knife is just about perfect; the tang and handle fit comfortably in my hand and the balance and overall weight make chopping especially effortless. One caution - the blades are made of forged stainless steel and are quite hard, probably around 60-62 HRC. This allows for a very sharp and long lasting knife edge but the blades are more brittle than low end knives. Do NOT use them to pry open a lid or twist a screw - the blade tip WILL break off - and be aware that that dropping the knife on a hard surface may break the blade. And, of course, never wash them in the dishwasher!!

Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful feedback and photos with us. We agree with your suggestions about using and washing your knives! Happy cooking!
This was a bridal shower gift so I am unable to rate as I will not be the one using. The recipient, however, was ecstatic to get this particular set as it was exactly what she had picked out.
We bought the knife set about a month ago. The set was a replacement of similar knifes. Be sure the handwash all knifes all of the time.
I would recommend this to a friend!
