These knives are awesome. I gave them to my mother for Christmas and she absolutely loves them. We opened them immediately and washed them so we could use the steak knives for the steak we had for dinner. They cut the steak like butter with no effort, are easy to hold, and look great. Highly recommend these knives for your kitchen or as a gift!
I was looking for something that was unique and wasn’t costly and made in the USA. These knifes are sharp and beautiful. Just what I was looking for. Thank you.
This knife set has it all! Beautiful storage block, every knife you could imagine, steak knives, scissors, and I feel like i'm leaving out some stuff. A great investment for the kitchen and hoping they will last a long time.
This set contains every knife I could possibly need. They are super sharp. It doesn�t take up a lot of space on the counter like my ugly old set did. It�s really beautiful on the counter - beautiful wood! I�m very happy with my purchase.
I love the quality and how they are fully metal. The thickness of the handle is better suited for someone with smaller hands in my opinion which work perfect for me, but it is understandable how someone else might say they are too small. (I wear a size small to medium glove).
It really is a nice set, but came missing the shears :((((
**IMPORTANT EDIT****
YES! my package came without the shears, but when the company reached out to me, same day as delivered mind you...they ENSURED I would rcv them. They have already sent me a tracking number for them so I wouldn't have to send the whole set back! So awesome and really are SO beautiful..used the pearing knife to cut my son and husband apples and it sliced like butter!!!
They are gorgeous & have a nice weight and def sharp! Ok, I only cut into a hamburger but wowza- so happy I ordered these and I have been researching diff sets for awhile! Planned on keeping in a cabinet but for now they�ll be out for display on the counter. Get the knives people.
Update - so far they�re very sharp and cut steak, sausage, ribs, potatoes - still love them!
I had no idea old knives were so bad... Until I got these. Purchased because my wife likes nice utensils and silverware, I was immediately shocked my the balance, weight, and ease of everything in this set. Even the block is well-made. These are a joy to use, look great, and make everything easy.
The knives look awesome and they were ready to go right out of the box. Love the block that they stored in. Very solid set of knives and I would recommend them to anyone.
While I love these knives I'm in abit of a dilemma I use em that much that they go dull fast and can't afford a good sharpener atm WAS MEANT TO HIT FIVE STAR and it won't let me go back and fix it
I was looking for a good wooden knife block for quite a while now and I was very happy to find this set. The quality of the wood, the combination of the wooden handles and the steel blades make this set perfect for those who love their knives.
I got this knife block set about a year ago and I absolutely love it! I didn't realize how nice a quality set of knives looks until I saw it. I love that the handles are wooden and that each knife is heavy duty, meaning they are very sturdy. Not only do they look unique, but they are also very functional. The knives are all of good quality and sharp, but not to the point of being dangerous.

I received this knife block set as a gift from my mother and was pleasantly surprised with how nice it is. The set is high quality and has a gorgeous array of knives.
The knives are made of high quality stainless steel and the set is complete with a wooden handle and a compact design. The set is just as beautiful as I expected it to be, and it's very easy to clean.
The handles have a nice weight to them and the set is easy to wipe off. I will definitely be buying one for myself and for my Dad as a Father's Day gift.
