Gourmet Knife Block Set (12-pc.) by Wusthof

I have used other brands of cutlery, Kitchen Aid, Cutco, J.A Henkel to name a few.They all were lkie useing a back saw instead of a good knife. The knifes I ordered from Foodnetwork were a pleasure to use. They have a nice sharpness that makes food preperation easy and a little faster. The next blade I will add to the set will be the oriental stile chopping blade then the meat slicer. Overall a nice set of blades.

Excellent knife set and wooden block. Better without the kitchen shears. A Carving fork would be a better choice for this set.

Excellent knives overall. The chef knife is a bargain. I found the smaller knives (steak knives) relatively thin but don't have anything to compare them to. Overall, glad I bought the the set, no regrets.

So for, I am extrememly pleased with these knives

i was disappointed their were only 11 knives and slots left over. they were nothing exceptional. went to a home goods store a week later and saw kitchen aid knives for much less money and more knives. i am not a shopper but in this case i have learned to shop around more.
