Amazon.com Review
This seven-piece set gets a cutlery collection started on the right track while leaving room to add more pieces in the future. Providing excellent control for average-sized hands, the 8-inch cook’s knife performs the majority of the chopping and mincing tasks in the kitchen. The 8-inch serrated bread knife cuts through a crusty loaf with ease, while the 4-1/2-inch utility knife will become a well-loved tool for smaller cutting tasks, such as slicing garlic or fruit. Finally, the 3-1/2-inch paring knife is perfect for peeling apples or hulling strawberries. A 9-inch sharpening steel keeps knife edges sharp and a pair of kitchen shears cuts herbs, poultry, or packaging. The 17-slot oak block holds all knives with room to spare for six steak knives and five other cutlery acquisitions.

Part of Wüsthof’s popular Classic line of cutlery, these knives have a very traditional design. Blades are hand-forged from a single piece of high-carbon steel so they retain their sharp edges longer and are easier to resharpen, plus they include a stain-resistant alloy. Blades are also ground and polished by computer to ensure perfect tapering from tip to bolster. A signature feature of Wusthof knives, the weighted bolster gives these knives the perfect heft. For balance, full tangs extend through the synthetic handles and are triple-riveted for strength. --Cristina Vaamonde

5.0 out of 5 stars Best set of knives!, June 1, 2009

I've handled wustof knives before this purchase. The knives feel great to hold and use. The weight of the knives is what really differentiates it from others.

Superior quality at a great price!

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Wusthof, January 16, 2007

I got this set from Macys.. I loved the choices of knives it has and the block with more slots. Only complaint is the Chef's knife is too big for a short person like me (it's 8 inch). Otherwise this set is worth having for the price.
