Product Description

Amazon.com Review

With sleek, contemporary, satin-finish, stainless-steel handles, the five stainless-steel kitchen knives and six stainless-steel steak knives in this 14-piece set equip the kitchen and dining room for every essential need. As part of the handles, sculpted bolsters give the knives balance and provide control. The five kitchen knives are an 8-inch chef's for rocking through chopping tasks, an 8-inch slicing knife for carving roasts and poultry, an 8-inch serrated bread knife, a 5-inch serrated utility knife, and a 3-1/4-inch paring knife. The 4-1/4-inch steak knives have serrated tips. Included in the set are an 8-inch sharpening steel to keep edges aligned and 8-inch kitchen shears with a bottle opener between the handles. All pieces fit in a hardwood storage block slanted for easy access. The knives are dishwasher-safe but should be hand washed to preserve edges. --Fred Brack

3.0 out of 5 stars Good set, but I don't like the steak knives, May 25, 2003

I love the look of the one piece cutlery, the sharpener, and the good quality wooden block, but I am not psyched with the cutting ability of the steak knives. I've kept the ones from my older, cheaper set b/c they seem to cut things much better. Things like bread, tomatoes and steak just don't cut well with the knives included in this set.

With the exception of the sharpening steel this is a good set of knifes for the price. I was leery of the stainless handles being slippery or uncomfortable but they are just the opposite. The balance is also good. Will work nicely if only used from time to time.
