This is the first time I own real cutlery. The difference between a regular set and this one is incredible. They are elegant yet, you can use them with modern or traditional china. The knife cuts any meat like if it was cutting butter. They are heavier than regular sets, which is really nice as you do not hVe to apply too much force when using them. The quality of the stainless steel is magnificent. I absolutely love them!

The Linch Laguiole Stainless Steel 8-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 4 comes packed in heavy latched boxes that appear to be made out of carbon but are likely just plastic. The boxes themselves are hefty and good looking. The Linch Laguiole Stainless Steel 8-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 4 has one box for the forks and one box for the knives. The interior of the box is fitted out for them to lie in there on there sides with stability. The forsk and knived are heavy but well balanced. They feel very good in the hand and they read as more expensive than they are. The Linch Laguiole Stainless Steel 8-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 4 forks have a beehive design on the handle and the knives have a bee. The handles of both forks and knives have the distinctive laguiole style curve to them. The Laguiole knife (French pronunciation: ​[laɡjɔl], locally [lajɔl]) is originally a high-quality traditional Occitan pocket-knife, originally produced in the "knife-city" of Thiers where 70% of the French cutting tool production comes from, and in the small village of Laguiole, both located in the Massif central region of France. "Laguiole" is neither a trademark nor a company name. Rather, the name "laguiole" became associated with a specific shape of a traditional knife common to this area.

Got this for my husband who wanted to have an "official" steak knife set. It feels very heavy in your hand and the stainless steel is smooth and comfortable to hold. It cut the steak very well and easily. The set also looks very nice and well made!

The fanciest knife and fork set I have ever had. The packaging alone for it is pretty amazing and you cannot beat the quality. Knives are very sharp and I love the style of this set. Definitely a talking point for any guests you have as it is not a common item but says a lot about how much attention you put into the details in your house having an item such as this. Great staple in the household and am very happy with this decision on this. Great product.

Super coutellerie!
