  • Sharp
Color: Brown Size: 8"
My first good quality knives and I can’t believe that I was using the cheap Henkles set for so long. These are so sharp, they glide through everything. It’s scary how effortlessly these cut through everything, I will probably lose a finger one day. They also look really cool and are extremely lightweight. ... show more

  • These knives are amazing!
Color: Brown Size: 8"
I bought these k over for my hubby who is a great cook and loves doing it. He couldn’t be happier. I’m not a cook but I actually enjoy using the smallest knife to chop up veggies for salads and such. They are sooo sharp! They feel really great in your hand too and they’re pretty, if a knife can be pretty lol. Really pleased with this set and could see getting more in the future. ... show more

  • Excellent
Color: Brown Size: 8"
These kitchen knives are amazing. Stropped them up to shaving status and I can glide through anything I'm preparing in the kitchen with crazy accuracy and nothing but the weight of the knife blade to push through even thick food products. Be wary though, this isn't the kind of knife that you use to pry open jars or hack through some thick bones or something, they're thin, and as such provide precision accuracy when cutting. They're not intended as a kitchen utility tool for every day use and you'll likely break or bend the tips if you attempt to use them for much other than cutting. I never put them through the dish washer, and never cut something not backed up by a cutting board. To do so would dull them fairly fast and greatly reduce their usefulness. At this price point, these are something you take care of. Hand wash, and be aware of what and where you're cutting. They'll hold up excellently for years to come provided you show them proper use and maintenance. I'd highly recommend these knives as a set for anyone. The three knives offered here cover my full range of needs when it comes to preparing food. Others may find you need more, but this is a perfect place to start. ... show more

  • A Great Gift for a Young Couple
Color: Brown Size: 8"
I bought these for my niece and her husband. Young couples rarely have the money for a good knife, and these are great knives. So a basic set like this made a great gift. They get to feel like they have a little luxury in their lives. I also have these knives. The knives are incredibly sharp (seriously, be careful!), and they're beautiful. You'll often hear that you need to be careful not to chip Japanese knives because they're thinner, and that's true. I've ruined some beautiful knives in my time. But with that said, these lightness, sharpness and maneuverability that you get in the trade off is well worth it to me, and mine have lasted many, many years. ... show more

Beautiful, sharp knives for the bride and groom. They went right home to cut a grape and proclaimed these Spectacular! I may have to get a set for myself.

  • Best knife for the money IMO
Color: Brown Size: 8"
Great knives… replaced German made Wüsthof. As with any quality knife, you will hand wash and dry. The blade are sharp, hold an edge, and the handles are comfortable and beautiful.

  • Not what I expected.
Color: Brown Size: 8"
Should have read the reviews first. Mine are rusted after one year. And yes, I do clean them after each use and put away dry and clean. Edge is decent, but doesn’t hold as long as my other blades. I do have a chip as well, hard to tell if that was a good on my part, but for reference my other kitchen cutlery hasn’t chipped in decades of use. Don’t recommend. ... show more
