Wusthof Classic 10-Piece Cooking Couple's Knife Set with Block
from Wüsthof.
After much thought about which "great knives" I was finally going to purchase I bought a set of the wusthof classic. I also purchased the ceramic knife sharpener to ensure my sharpening technique. The only knife that cut to any extent was the serrated one. I thought surely there must be something...
Wusthof Grand Prix 6-Piece Steak Knife Set
from Wusthof.
We use and love the knives. Easy to handle, weighted just right. Shape for precise cutting. Continue their degree of sharpness use after use. Thats why we are looking to buy more.
Sabatier Perfect Grip 14-Piece Knife Set with Block
from Sabatier.
We knew we needed better knives this year with 10 relatives visiting for Thanksgiving (hmm, perhaps that came out wrong), but I'm still happy with the knives. They have a good balanced weight and a very comfortable grip (soft but stiff handles). We were surprised to see "made in China" stamped on...
Wusthof Classic 2-Piece Knife Starter Set
from Wusthof.
I received as a gift a set of three Wusthof knives when I moved into my first apartment. At that point in my life, I knew NOTHING about cooking, and could barely boil water. The knives sat in their box for several months before I finally got around to opening them. These knives, however, are...
Wusthof Classic 6-Piece Block Set with Bonus Shear
from Wusthof.
I graduated to this set after using a Henckels Fine Edge set. While this is the standard of the Wusthof line, the Henckels Fine Edge is the low end of Henckels and therefore cannot be compared. However, this set is of excellent quality and performance. The price has gone up since I purchased my set,...
Sabatier ChefStar 14-Piece Knife Block Set
from Sabatier.
I consider myself a chef and when I was in school learning, carving and cutting, slicing and dicing, well all I can say is these knifes fit all my at home needs from cutting steak to slicing bread and even to cutting chicken into the parts I want it to be in... They seem to be VERY strong, and they...
Henckels Pro S 18-Piece High Carbon Stainless Steel Knife Set with Block
from J.A. Henckels.
The primary knives included in this set are quite simply THE BEST you can buy, they are well weighted, balanced and hold an edge longer than any I've ever owned. The one and only drawback to this set is the steak knives, they are NOT Pro S, they are the lower Henckels line 'Gourmet'.
Sabatier Precision 5-Inch Stainless Steel Tomato Knife
from Sabatier.
Nice handy size with a blade shape that works really well on vegetables allowing a fine slice. Good sturdy handle that is comfortable and fits the hand well. The Precision line is actually made in China, so the quality was less than expected, but ok considering the price.

Sabatier Precision 14-Piece Stainless Steel Knife Set with Block
from Sabatier.
I am very pleased with both the quality of the steel and the construction of the knives! I have worked as an Executive Chef in Clubs and Resorts for over 25 years and while I thought this deal was too good to be true for the price, I still purcjased it for my home. I actually found them to be of...
Henckels SOS 8-Piece Stainless Steel Steak Knife Set with Wood Gift Box
from J.A. Henckels.
I was a hippie vegemite until I received these bad boys as a wedding gift... Yeehaw! Haven't tried cutting through a tire with em', but they mow through your toughest cut of meat. Love em' Love to show them off. Neato!
Wusthof Culinar 7-Inch Hollow Edge Santoku Knife
from Wüsthof.
I've owned this knife for several months and am pleased with it -- it certainly is good-looking. The santoku blade is great for chopping veggies -- I think the hollow (Granton) edge is well worth the small increase in price over a flat blade.
The only drawback to this knife -- as it is with...

Chef's Choice 110 Professional Diamond Hone Sharpener
from Chef's Choice.
I am a carpenter, not a chef. However, as such, I know the value of sharp tools. They cut faster, easier and are much safer. A dull tool or knife is unpredictable and this makes it more dangerous than a sharp one. My wife (a much better cook than me) and I have some high quality knives and some...
Sabatier Precision 15-Piece Knife Set with Block
from Sabatier.
I bought this Sabatier 15- piece knife set because it was the best "bang for my buck." I have a four-month old daughter, so my husband and I can't afford much. But I'm learning to cook things more intriguing than mac 'n cheese, and I really needed to replace my horrible Farberware knife set.
The...
Wusthof Grand Prix 7-Inch Hollow Edge Asian Cook's Knife
from Wusthof.
The best knife in my Kitchen, excellent for just about anything. The handle and the feel of the knife just makes you feel like a chef. I have tried buying this knife in other places ex. William Sonoma they can't keep them in stock because of the popularity of the knife. Price is really reasonable....
Henckels Gourmet 8-Piece Steak Knife Set with Box
from J.A. Henckels.
I just received these knifes and I was very pleased. The quality was great on the knifes and the box was even nice. You are always hesitant buying something without seeing it, but I was pleasantly surprised with this set. For the money you just can't beat it.
Henckels Pro S 9-Piece High Carbon Stainless Steel Knife Set with Block
from J.A. Henckels.
I agree with Rob Smith. Ive bought the Professional 'S' series 8 piece block from a departmental store. When I open up the box and saw the knives, I was asking myself whether this set is from Henckels,a company with an established reputation.
There are scratches on the some of the knives blade...
Henckels Gourmet 18-Piece High Carbon Stainless Steel Knife Set with Block
from J.A. Henckels.
Emerilware 3-Piece Paring Knife Set
from Wusthof.
Emeril and I have someting in common! We both use Wusthof knives! He's famous, I'm not!
Wusthof manufacturing quality and time tested paring knife designs for a real good price. The handles in this set are CLOSE TO the Wusthof Classic Line but not quite as comfortable and "familiar". I would say...
Wusthof Classic 7-Piece Knife Set with Block
from Wusthof.
There are really two main competitors in the high-end mainstream kitchen knife market: Henckels and Wusthof. Those who have used both usually have a preference. My preference (and therefore bias you should know about) is for the Wusthofs. The Wusthof Classic line is the more conservative...
Henckels Four Star 7-Piece High Carbon Stainless Steel Knife Set with Block
from J.A. Henckels.
Three years ago, my husband (who is a knifemaker himself) bought me this set as a birthday gift. He checked out the 5 star and Pro S lines as well, but decided on the four-star knives for me because they are designed for average-sized hands. Other than that, they are identical to the others except...
Sabatier Satin Balance 11-Piece Knife Set with Block
from Sabatier.
I purchased these knives because I desperately needed a new knife set. I really liked the all metal design and the shiny copper handles, and they did look like they would be sharp. To my surprise the knives were so dull I had to sharpen them right away!!
Overall I am happy they look nice in my...
Wüsthof Grand Prix 7-Piece Knife Set with Block
from Wüsthof.
I love these knives. They are extremely sharp, cut well, and have a very comfortable grip. This particular style is more of a pistol grip handle. These are extremely comparable to the Henkle set, both are high quality knives, the deciding factor for me was the grip of the knife. These keep an edge...
Wüsthof Avantgarde 7-Piece Knife Set with Block
from Wüsthof.
Wusthof Grand Prix 10-Piece Cooking Couple's Knife Set with Block
from Wüsthof.
There are really two main competitors in the high-end mainstream kitchen knife market: Henckels and Wusthof. Those who have used both usually have a preference. My preference (and therefore bias you should know about) is for the Wusthofs. The Wusthof Grand Prix line is a more modern design than...
Chef's Choice 3-Stage Diamond Hone Professional Sharpener Plus
from Chef's Choice.
I have had mine for 3 months and it's greatest item I've bought. I sharpened old knives that I had put in the back of drawers becuase they were so dull from other hand sharpeners. Now, it brought to life all my knives and even the serrated knives and the cleaver. My husband is a charter captain,...
Wusthof Classic 5 -Inch Serrated Utility Knife
from Wusthof.
I'd like to disagree with the "may be overkill" review. I think this knife is a fantastic addition to any kitchen, especially for a college student who can't afford a wide range of equipment. The great thing about this knife is its versatility: it's perfectly sized and can take on any number of...
Swiss Army Golf Tool with Range Finder
from Victorinox.
If you are looking for a gift for that special golfer, this should do it. It has everything a golfer could want on the course.
Sabatier Grand Chef 10-Piece Knife Set in Glass Block
from Sabatier.
I currently own a small collection of Sabatier and Henkels knives to support my cooking habit. I have been hoping to upgrade to higher quality Sabatier or any of the Wusthof Collections. Unfortunately, since I had perfectly good collections of lower end Sabatier and Henkels knives it was hard to...
