    Great set of knives - all quality made and came in a nice wood block to display on the kitchen counter - haven't had this quality of knives ever so can't compare to anything other than cheap sets bought at Target. A joy to cut with!

    A beautiful set of knives!
    by Mark, CA

    I love the Calphalon cookware I bought earlier, so I was confident I would like this set, and I do. The knives are very sharp and feel good in the hand. The block of wood they are housed in looks beautiful on my kitchen counter. At $100 or more less than other brands, this set is a must get!

    I have used a few individual Calphalon knives in the past. I recently purchased the entire set. I love this set of knives. The weight, balance and handling makes the work easy.

    Calphalon Quality
    by Jimmy, TX

    I love the exceptional quality of Calphalon knives. These were bought as a gift because we had already purchased Calphalon knives for our home and absolutely love them.

    Cooking Tip From the Food Network Kitchens

    Never immerse mushrooms in water to clean them- they'll lose their flavor and turn soggy. Instead, just give them a quick wipe with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt.
