These things are SHARP! I hope they will last but they are beautiful out of the box. The scissors are just run of the mill shears but everything else is really nice.

I purchased this as a gift for my daughter and had an opportunity to use one of the knives. I was very impressed with how sharp the blade was and the difference it made to the other knives she previously had on hand. This set was a huge improvement and the sale price couldn't be beat!

Beat knifes I ever had

I love this beautiful knife set. Never really knew a knife can be beautiful until now. Being insanely sharp also helps. Been using it for about a month and still very sharp. The handle is perfect and not slippery at all. I do with the block wasn't so tilted forward as my previous block was more vertical so this one feels like it takes up more counter space but it's not a deal breaker.

Great handle shape and control when using the knives - needed a set of light sharp knives to replace another kitchen set. Getting heavy use and staying sharp.
