Product Description

Amazon.com Review
Designed specifically for women, the knives in this 10-piece cutlery set have blades and handles of a smaller proportion to provide more control during cutting tasks. The set also pulls together some of the most used knives to comprise a more uncommon assortment but one that is more efficient. The knives include 7-inch chef’s and bread knives, which are about an inch shorter than the standard 8-inch versions that most knife sets carry. In addition, the set includes a 6-inch boning knife for deboning fish or chicken; a 5-inch utility knife for slicing smaller foods, such as grapes, strawberries, or garlic; a 4-1/4-inch sandwich knife for halving sandwiches or quartering quesadillas; and a 3-1/2-inch paring knife for peeling apples or pears. Additionally, the set comes with a 3-1/2-inch vegetable peeler for potatoes or carrots, a grapefruit knife for sectioning citrus, and a set of shears with a built-in bottle opener. All components fit within the black stained 10-slot hardwood block.

Farberware’s Elite line of knives all have high-chromium stainless-steel blades that are rust-, stain-, and corrosion-resistant. The slimmer blades are easier to maneuver during detailed cutting jobs and the serrated edges never need sharpening. The blades are seamlessly attached to beautiful lightweight stainless-steel handles. The comfortable, contoured handles are also sized for smaller hands and offer just the right amount of balance for safe slicing. All Farberware Elite cutlery is dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning and is covered by a limited lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent knife set, better than I expected, August 22, 2004

By	R. Donlin (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I looked all over for a knife set that would suit my needs. I am a petite woman, so it's true that the knives are made smaller which allows for greater control and efficiency. I also like that the blades are not set in a wooden handle, preventing the blades from loosening over time. This set is very sharp, beautiful, and it comes in a custom wood block.

1.0 out of 5 stars knives rust in dishwasher, January 6, 2006

By	Theresa A. Baker - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this knife block and then returned it for the same item because mine would rust every time I put them in the dishwasher. The company asssured me this never happened before and sent me out a new set only to do the same thing. I have to brillo the rust off when they come out of the dishwasher. Would not recommend these unless you want to do the same!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality Product, June 24, 2004

By	Ron Atkins "Ron" (California) - See all my reviews

I have owned a Farberware knife set for years, and based on the above description can see that this product is similar to the one I own. The nice thing about these knives is the way they feel in your hand. You know you are holding a quality knife, that is well balanced and holds a sharp edge for a long time. I also like how the molded handles do not allow water or food particles to get under the handles and cause rust and bactoeria build up, as in wooden handled kitchen knives. The wooden block for this knife set is well made and will look good on your kitchen counter for years. The block makes accessing your knives convenient, and safer than digging through a utility drawer.
