For the money… you can’t go wrong!!,
We purchased these knives…and think they’ve been worth every penny. They’re sharp, comfortable to grip, aesthetically appealing, and come in a nice assortment. Certain knives like the Chef’s knife and the table/steak knives have become the proverbial ‘work horse’ of the set while the tomato knife hasn’t really seen the light of day since it left the box. The polypropylene handles are capable of withstanding high temperatures and, because of their nature, do not harbor bacteria like some sets that contain rivets or those with wooden handles.
While this is a great set, it is not a high-end set, so you may want to look elsewhere if that’s what you’re after. None of the knives have a full-tang (where the steel goes all the way through the handle) or rivets. The handles are plastic. Also, the steel is from Japan (if I’m not mistaken) instead of Germany and boy, do the Germans know how to make steel!
So, dear friends, if you’re looking for a set that you can pass on to your children and your children’s children then you should indeed move up the Henckels line or look into Cutco (my favorites) or another high-end set. If you’re looking to buy a good, inexpensive set that looks great and is every bit as functional, then look no more!
Also, consider looking into a pair of kitchen shears… they’re indespensible!

|Good Deal For The Price,
Our knives were in pretty awful condition – I was getting tired of pushing the blade of the steak knife back in the handle every time I sawed through a piece of meat. Sure I’d love to have a set of top-grade Henckels but given the price of something like that plus the fact that we don’t use knives that often, I figured this second-tier set was worth a try. The knives are nice and sharp. The construction quality is decent and it suits our purposes fine – they look good, cut well and fit in the block like they are supposed to. So what if they don’t do well in the dishwasher? How much trouble can it be to hand-wash a knife? For $…, they’re a fine deal. I’m glad I bought them.
