The blades in this set of slim, lightweight knives are stamped in stainless steel, and their edges are microserrated and therefore touted as never needing sharpening. The handles are formed of tough polypropylene and are seamless, allowing for better hygiene. The set includes six kitchen knives, six 5-inch steak knives, and a rubber-footed wood block that has slots for them all. The kitchen knives include an 8-inch chef's knife with a curved blade for rocking through a chopping task; a 5-inch tomato knife with a narrow, curved blade; an 8-inch bread knife; a 6-inch utility knife; a 6-inch boning knife for meats, poultry, and fish; and a 2-1/2-inch paring knife for peeling and cleaning vegetables and fruits. As a bonus, a pronged-tip knife designed to slice cheese and spear the slices is included. While the knives are dishwasher-safe, they should be hand washed to preserve their edges. Unlike Henckels's premier knives, which are made in Germany, these knives are made in China; however, they do carry the company's lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack What's in the Box

 Customer Reviews 
Affordable and Well-Made Knife Set
Rating: 5
I was very happy with the price of this product. Obviously, these aren't knives that you will pass on to your grandchildren, but they are knives that you will use for a number of years before graduating to another knife set. The knives are super sharp, and they look great in the wooden block. They are well made, and they fit nicely in the palm of my hand. I highly recommend them for college students, singles and any other person who wants a well-crafted knife set but doesn't need them to last for the next thirty years.
GREAT SET OF KNIVES!

I have 2 sets of these knives after purchase of this most recent set because they didn't cost an arm and leg! The 1st set I've had for approx. 10 years. They are great! Easy to care for and definitely get the job done. The information that comes with them suggests that you not put them in the dishwasher, but I've always put them in the dishwasher anyway because they weren't expensive and my old ones still look new! I also like them because there are no "exposed" screws in the handles - they look expensive but are very reasonably priced. Great product!
Low Quality

Very thin blades, the handles are not rivetted, the blade wobbles if I try to cut something hard.
