The knives started rusting the first time I washed them. The handle detached from the knife on one of them the first time I used it. I would not ever buy this product again. I am not pleased with them at all.

I like everything about the knives. Beautiful, classy design

Extremely sharp! Makes my kitchen look like I know what I'm doing.

Bought as a gift but she loves them

Bought these as a gift for my husband. He loves them. They are very sharp and stay sharp. The price is worth it.

Awesome set of knives

Sharp and a good weight. Not too heavy not too light.

These are very beautiful knives and work very well. However, they are not stainless as they do rust. Make sure you dry immediately after washing and don't ever leave them wet or in the sink.

I bought these 1 yr + 3 days ago...and we got maybe 2 months of good performance. The most often used knives were already becoming dulled, and I also started having problems with light rusting. I realized fairly quick that it was not thru our fault...we were, ad still are, diligent about not putting them innthe dishwasher or even soaking them. They were hand dried and stored up on a quality magnetic strip (not in a drawer clanking together!)...basically I'm saying that I take care of my kitchen things. Therefore I am confident that I am giving a fair evaluation:Pros- these knives were seriously sharp when received. The grips are comfortable and non slip. Each knife is a good weight for it's function and size. It is an attractive set.Cons- at least half of the knives were disappointing by a few nonths old and several are dull enough that they're not used anymore. Several of the knives have a constant rust issue, a couple others just isolated inciidents.So here I am, shopping for knives again. I think I'll try a German brand now.

This was a great purchase. I was looking for a new knife set and did some research, and this was a great deal. Nice weight to the knives. Makes for easy chopping, fileting, etc. Nice balance. Super sharp. It says they can be washed in a dishwasher, but I don't. I just wash them immediately after use and then store them. After years of using subpar knives, this set is a fantastic find.

Super sharp and so easy to use. Makes cutting everything so effortlessly, specially tomatoes and bread!

I bought these because all the pictures make the blades look dark, like they are black with damascus steel “veins” or whatever going through them. I am not using them at all, just returning them because they look nothing like the pictures provided. What a PITA! I wanted to be able to present my whole kitchen this weekend, and have to return these and order different knives now. Waste of time to say the least.

For Father’s Day I sent my husband to a Tender BBQ Pitmaster course. The restaurant owner taught the class himself, and this is the set he uses. The entire class was enthralled by the sharpness and beauty of his knives. He was kind enough to send me the info so I could get a set for hubby’s birthday. He loves them!

These are gorgeous. They are very shiny and reflective and they came sharpened with knife covers. Gorgeous set.

I Love everything about these knives...Hint: knives don't belong in the dishwasher..,. All knives are hand washed (with cutting glove on) and air dried.. handles and knives blades are in awesome shape and sharp and no color change !!!Do not put in dishwasher!!!!

Got these for my boyfriend for his birthday and he uses them all the time! So happy I bought them, great purchase

I’ve used one of the knives. Went to take another out of the box and it has rust spots. Box is kept in dry place. Quite bummed as the return window has closed. There are nicer non-rusty knives out there. These suck but cut okay.

The individual who received this is a chef and he found it useful.

First of all, I'm not a professional Chef. I did graduate from culinary art schools but that was more of a hobby. These knives can be purchased through many other companies on Amazon. They are semi-low quality Chinese mass produced. Just look at other options that are or appear exactly the same.Now, I get that the aesthetic in the pictures is just a trick. The knives are not going to look like that.... but the quality is around the $60 range for 8 knives that (ARE NOT!) professional quality.However, if you do maintain them and keep them dry... they may last.

These are beautiful knives and the display case that they sit in makes them a center point in any kitchen. This set would make an amazing Christmas gift. They are extremely sharp and look and feel like the most expensive knives that you have ever owned. Dr Glenn Ekblad, DO.
