A sharp edge
4/5

This may be an oversight on my part or I did not receive the finished product right away. I'm happy with the knife's look and quality, though I did not find it Just like if the blade had never been (I have butter knives that are In truth, you can hold it all day long and drag it across your palm. Among the stones I have are those as fine as 16k grit. Even if I sharpened it anyway, I was planning to make it razor sharp. I am just going to need to spend more time on it. As soon as I know the quality of steel, I'll let you know. It has a fancy pattern, though, since it is allegedly fold over manufacturing. Forged steel is not patterned, there is no fancy pattern on it because it is folded over multiple times for strength. I will update you as soon as possible.

I do not recommend it
3/5

The pro's are It has a nice weight and is of a good In addition, the mosaic pin in the handle adds a touch of style to the handle. Those cons are The print quality is dull right out of the box, and the edge retention is poor. My knives were once okay to use, and I put a good chunk of time into getting them sharp again. On top of that, they are frustrating As you are aware, plain edge steak knives undergo a lot of wear and tear when they are used to cut This is the fourth use). It was too late to return these, and I regretted the purchase because I did not realize how problematic they were until it was too late. I would have returned them right away if I had kept the packaging and didn't have to sharpen them.

Wow, what a find! That's awesome! Those cheap wood handle serrated knife sets you see in steakhouses are on my list of things to order
5/5

I was tempted by them, but decided the non- were better Using serrated knives was actually nice because the meat was not destroyed as it was being cut. While the picture in the catalogue showed a smaller size than the actual ones delivered, I was surprised when I saw the size when they arrived. They enhance the experience of eating a steak not only by being beautiful and perfectly balanced, but also by adding to its enjoyment. They would be excellent gifts for anyone who loves meat You know how a food eater is. Packaging has been beautifully done and I guarantee that you won't be disappointed It is of the highest quality. Sharp to the point of being painful. It's important to open them carefully. When one of them fell out of its plastic wrap, it cut me. As well as the sheaths, which cannot be left in a drawer, you will have to provide these.

Plan on purchasing a few more sets to bring to an entertaining party.

The knives are of excellent quality at an excellent price
5/5

I've had these knives for a couple of months now, and they're very well made and have a very sharp edge. I am very satisfied with the overall quality, fit, and finish. In my opinion, the only critique is that it is hard to confirm if the "Damascus" pattern was created by forging. Alternatively, you can have laser etching or chemical etching done. In the case of a fake design, I would have preferred to do without it. There is good quality steel in this product It's all here in the open. This knife has an excellent balance and weight, which combined with its excellent ergonomics make for a very comfortable grip. This really is an incredible deal that you will not be able to find when goods are manufactured back at home in the United States. China imports fewer of them than other countries. Yet, I have no problem with it. If I had to pay almost double for the same quality knives made in the United States, I'd be willing to pay it. The equivalent steel is used.

Steak knives that are great
4/5

The price I have seen they normally sell at seems to be on the high side. I have been using them to reverse age cheeses for dry aging. A medium-sized fish that has been seared The restaurant serves a great rare ribeye, and I get it in no time at all. They are a bit on the expensive side, coming in at $45 per knife An easier way for you to save money In a nutshell It is most certainly possible to find cutlery below that price point if your goal is simply to cut your dinner with it. I like the form of the thing too, but. . . Due to the very attractive design of the blade, it makes quite an impression. They have served their intended purpose very well, and as a result, after using them every day for several weeks, I would not even consider reaching for the Cuisinart or Tramontina knives that this set In the coming days, I will upload a few photos.

Last night, I used the knife on a ribeye
5/5

I don't expect anything in return. There is no sawing involved. There is no rough edges. It is a very sharp blade without serrations. It's very easy to slice through a steak with this razor-smooth blade. Knives are tools that are specifically designed for a particular purpose. In addition to his handsome appearance, he is also very intelligent. A high polish has been applied to the blade. There is a lot of smoothness on the handle. The knife handle is smooth, but not so smooth that I wouldn't use it with a wet hand. I have big hands, so I was concerned about the handle's size. NOT AT ALL. I find it to work well.
