3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing quality February 8, 2011

By Diaz Fam.

Amazon Verified Purchase

The concept is great, but the delivery not so much. The knifes are not great (poorly balanced, not too sharp, not ergonomic). I would have been willing to forgive that for the "look" value, but I was disappointed with that as well. First, the stand is very large and needs lots of counter space to look OK. Second, the stand is made out of cheap-looking plastic and the knifes look cheap as well. Overall, not the cool looking piece I thought it would be, it's more on the tacky side.

1.0 out of 5 stars cheap plastic August 7, 2011

By Pat M

My friend purchased one of these online a couple of years ago - and her's was much heavier. This is made of very light plastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tacky is Terrific!! September 29, 2011

By Rexburbia "Fine Art and Zombies"

Sometimes a product is purchased not for its utility but for its impact. This baby has impact! Even if this showed up and the knives didn't cut through soft butter, I would still be a happy camper.

If you require knives for a purpose other than impressing your party guests you can steer clear of this, but if you want to throw a stamp of uniqueness in your kitchen, this is money well spent. Sometimes art is just fine hanging out and looking pretty.
