Due to their delicate nature in terms of corrosion resistance, it is essential that you clean these knives shortly after use and then hand-dry them as soon as you are able. DO NOT leave them out to dry as you will drastically reduce the lifespan, and DO NOT put them in the dishwasher as you will ruin them. You're probably wondering what you're paying for then, if these are so susceptible to corrosion. You're paying for a sharper edge than your average knife with greater retention. These things are SHARP, you will cut yourself if you're not careful.
Regarding the build quality, these things are very well-built. The handles are full-tang with rivets which is important for longevity. Their other set claims to have an adhesive that is resistant to blunt and heat trauma but I don't mess with anything besides full tang when it comes to heavy-use knives. The handles are filed to be completely flush, and compared to brands like Cuisinart or even Henckels, they are a bit thin. However, they are easy to hold and feel very good in the hand. There is a reason these knives are the primary choice for most culinary schools in the nation. My only regret is this set neither contains a Santoku, nor does it contain a place to hold one. I feel like it would have been smarter to include a Santoku over a bread knife, or even over the boning knife. The chef's knife is awesome though, and the paring and utility knives are extremely useful. This is a great set that will serve you for many years if you treat them right.
The glass and stainless steel is really beautiful to behold and looks like new after a 14 months use. The knifes that came with it were dangerously sharp, and have kept their edge after processing countless dishes.
I would not hesitate to gift this item.
The knife's are very sharp so be careful when first time using. I use them as quality tools and take proper care of them. I expect no problems with the knifes in the future.
Some reviews have stated the knifes have rusted or handles have come off. I think the reviews were for other knife sets as the Mercer set is high grade stainless steel and one piece so handles aren't seperate.
One issue to consider is storage UNDER a upper cabinet on counter top. There is not enough head room to remove a knife from glass holder. Angled storage would be a better option if placing knife set on counter under upper cabinets.
In our kitchen configuration that is not a problem and we love the glass display knife holder.

Update: I have been using these for more than a month and I am still blown away by the quality. They really hold their edge for a long, long time. I am not used to having such sharp knives in my kitchen and it makes food prep a breeze. I made sure to purchase a good electric knife sharpener so I can maintain the edge, but so far I haven't needed it. I transferred all the knives to a wooden knife block which I prefer to that modern glass block. When I used the glass block, the knives scrape against the metal frame which makes an unpleasant sound. I like to keep them in wood which is silent. It's great to be able to get knives of the quality of Wustoff or Henckels for so much less money.
