Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Stored in their black, hardwood block, the five stainless-steel kitchen knives in this set fulfill a cook's needs and also look great with their stylish stainless-steel handles poking out. Along with the knives comes an 8-inch sharpening steel for keeping their edges aligned. The knives are stamped from high-carbon stainless steel and their stainless-steel handles are shaped to snugly fit the hand. The five kitchen knives in the set include an 8-inch chef's knife for rocking through chopping tasks, an 8-inch slicing knife for carving meats and poultry, a 6-inch utility knife for making sandwiches and myriad other jobs, a 6-inch boning knife with a narrow blade for cutting around bones and fileting, and a 3-1/2-inch paring knife for fruits and vegetables. All the knives are dishwasher-safe, but hand washing protects the edges better. --Fred Brack

Key Word "Stamped",
By "max101" (Boston, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sabatier Prosteel 7-Piece High Carbon Stainless-Steel Knife Block Set (Kitchen)
These light weight stamped blades are cut out from a thin sheet of steel which makes them very, very light. All of the weight is in the stainless steel / polymer sandwich handle (to stick the stamped blade into). Weight is a major factor when buying a knife. A forged knife will offer better overall balance / control than a stamped knife. These just feel cheap. They do look ok from a distance - but your are better off to get one good forged knife then a whole set of these cheap stamped knives. Regards

What I paid for...,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sabatier Prosteel 7-Piece High Carbon Stainless-Steel Knife Block Set (Kitchen)
I was initially very excited at the prospect of getting such a classy looking set of knives for so little. Then, they arrived in my mailbox.Seeing them myself, I found them to look cheap. the blades weren't alligned properly, the handles felt awkward and hollow, and furthermore, I couldn't get them sharpened. I even got a different sharpening stone than what was included with the set and gave that a try. no luck. the entire piece felt loosely contructed, as though it would fall apart if I wasn't careful. I did, however, get a couple of knives for Christmas. I got an OXO good grips chef's knife and two wusthoffs. I found these knives to be far superior and although I know that they are expensive, but they are exceptional. (also got shining reviews in Chef's magazine.) Some of the finest kitchen tools that I own. I'm getting rid of my Sabatier Prosteel set.

I am a chef knife addict & I LOVE these knives!!!,
This review is from: Sabatier Prosteel 7-Piece High Carbon Stainless-Steel Knife Block Set (Kitchen)
I was wary of ordering these knives because some of the reviews I read. But, being one of those people who has to make up my own mind I decided not to pass them up due to the great cost. I own many professional grade kitchen knives from most of the big-name manufacturers and including Sabatier. So, when I read some of the complaints I was shocked as Sabatier has always served me well. And I am NOT disappointed that I didn't listen to the other reviewers!! WOW!! I am really happy with my decision to purchase these knives. They are very sharp and comfortable to use. The reason I gave them only 4 stars instead of 5 is because the design, though ergonomic, was a little hard to get used to. But once I used them a few times it was like they were an extension of my hand. To the people who say their knives have rusted I say that they are not taking proper care of their knives. Anyone with experience knows that with any good knife, as well as good cookware, you need to wash it by hand and dry it immediately. To me this is just common sense. You don't pay good money for a piece of metal and then soak it in sink water or put it in the dishwasher to get rusted and pitted by the detergent! I encourage anyone who is on the fence regarding this purchase to just go for it!! There is nothing to lose if you want a really great knife set but can't afford big prices!!! And what a great gift idea! I purchased a set for a newlywed couple. I would have died to get such a nice, expensive knife set when I was first married! Thanks for letting me ramble, I hope this helps!!!!
