Product Description

Brilliant Monochromatic colors make the pure komachi 2 series a real eye-catcher. But all that fun-loving color has a serious purpose too. The color-coding makes it easy to choose the right knife for the job. It also helps guard against cross-contaminating food-for instance, by using the knife you've just used to cut meat on the vegetables. The bold blade colr is achieved by bonding food-safe fda approved resin to high-carbon stainless-steel blades. This non-stick coating resists corrosion, makes cleaning simple, and hlps the knife glide through food with ease. The pure komachi 2 color-matched handles are lightweight and ergonomically contoured for a comfortable, fatique-reducing grip. Incredible sharp and decidedly attention-getting. Pure komachi 2 knives make a delightful addition to any kitchen. The 9 piece block set includes: 4-inch tomato/cheese knife, 4-inch citrus knife, 3 1/2-inch paring knife, 6-inch multi utility knife, 5 3/4-inch sandwich knife, 6 1/2-inch Chef knife, 8-inch chefs knife, 8-inch bread knife, and clear acrylic block.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best you will find for this money. January 23, 2010

I have owned these for about 6 months now. At first, they seemed a bit lightweight but after using them, they are perfect. They are well balanced and extremely sharp. So far, there has not been a single negative. If you are used to using cheap knives, you should be very careful when you first get these. We had company at the house who did some cooking and she ended up cutting herself at least six times! She never owned a knife that took so little effort to use and she kept slipping up and nicking her fingers. The knife block is a little large but it displays the colors of the blades very nicely. I tried putting them in a smaller wooden block but they just did not look as good. We use colorful Fiesta dinnerware in the house and these knives add a bold splash of color of their own to the counter top. I liked the set so well that I went back and bought all the remaining knives in the set.

5.0 out of 5 stars komachi where have you been all my life January 13, 2010

I got these knives because my partner does not want me to put his precious knives in the dishwasher. WELL these knives are much better than his! They are super sharp -- amazing when cutting vegetables. I also read that you can send them out once a year to be sharpened for free. I can't believe that! The only negative is the block. It is very big and bulky and the knives only take up like 1/3 of the area they sit in. The knives are too beautiful to be put in it-- although it does show their colors off.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love Them March 20, 2010

I ordered this set of knives as I'll be doing a lot of camping this summer and didn't want to bring my expensive Henckles with me and take the chance of losing them. So, after looking at customer reviews and listening to You Tube's "life regenerator" talk about how he loves his tomato knife, I decided to order this set to take along with me. I love, love, love these knives. They are very sharp and lightweight. As with most other customers, I did cut myself a couple of times due to their extreme sharpness.

The different colors help me to easily pick the knife I want. And the plastic storage case, though a little bulky, keeps the knives from bumping against each other and becoming dull. I've only had the set a couple of months, but the knives are still sharp after daily use. These are the knives I consistently reach for while preparing meals.

Like I said, I've only had them a couple of months, so I'm not sure how long the knives will keep their edge. However, for the price of them, I don't think I could ever be disappointed with them. At this point, I don't have any negatives.
