They look great, feel great and cut well, but they will start to show rust stains after a couple of weeks if you don't dry them after every use. The dishwasher will rust them quickly. For the price, they work well for entertaining where you can show them off, but they will not stand up to daily use unless you take the time to take care of them.

I purchased this set on clearance at Target for $59.99...Needless to say I love the look. They are very, VERY sharp. I was washing them and halfway cut my finger off, very clean cut though..lol Owned them for over 2 yrs and I still dont have a problem with them other than the rust. I still havent had to sharpen them. I mean I dont have the time or energy to be washing every single thing my family and I eat off of, so off they go into the dishwasher. And what do you know if you're not promptly taking them out you've got rust. I find myself using a brillo pad to try to get it off sometimes it works sometimes not. Hand wash Only!

Pros:

Price

Looks great

Sharp

Cons:

Block is cheaply made & scratches easily

Rust... Oh yeah and RUST!

Don't forget the rust

We received these as a wedding gift a year and a half ago. More or less, they've served us reasonably, but I doubt they'd still be useful if I hadn't obsessively sharpened them. Out of the box they were incredibly dull. The accounts of rust are extremely well founded. Do not put these in the dishwasher if you must have them. Honestly though, if you're going to buy knives around this pricepoint, do what we're planning on doing: buying Chicago Cutlery to replace them. Just don't get these knives. The $15-20 you'll save buying them won't make up for the amount of time you'll spend with them and then replacing them. Ish!

this knife set is great and oneida does it again. arrived in a couple of days.

I've had these knives for well over a year and can vouch that they do indeed rust and are not worth the money
