A very nice set of knives for a very nice price October 25, 2005

Yes, there are probably better and prettier knives than this set. There is the ridiculously beautiful Katana set from Calphalon. There is an elegant and heavy set from Mundial. There is the tried and true and sworn by Wusthof cutlery and its counterpart offerings from Henckel's so if money is no object for you, feel free to look around. If, however, you are on a budget and want a good looking, feather-light yet sturdy set of knives, you can't go wrong with this one.
As you can see, it is a 7 piece set and it comes with a chef's knife, a carving knife, a serrated knife, a paring knife, and a pair of kitchen shears. It doesn't come with a set of steak knives so if you're like me and like to grill every Friday night (what's better than steak and some nice wine after a week of lifting weights?) you'll need to purchase another set.
The quality of these knives matches the look of them. And as far as aesthetics are concerned, these knives are rather pretty.
As I said, they are very light but they are extremely sturdy (they certainly appear to be full tang and they behave as though they are - quite frankly, at this price they better be)and I don't feel bad about putting them through the motion - after all, that's what they're there for
As with all top quality kitchen utensils, hand washing is preferred and recommended. I certainly don't mind taking the time to adhere to those requirements.
The Hardwood Block is top notch, if a little large.
Bottom line - after the price cut, this is a steal.
