I love to cook and have purchased many knives over the years and most single knife purchases have cost more than this entire set so even though the set had good reviews I didn't know quite what to expect. And if being honest, didn't have very high expectations, thought they would likely dull after after a few uses and have me regretting my purchase. But I am happy to say I was completely wrong. I have had them for a few weeks and they have become go to knives in my kitchen. The blades are sharp, they cut great and the handles don't just look good but they are comfortable to hold as well. My only complaint is the set didn't have an option to include steak knives too. If you want an economic option that cuts like something that would cost 3x more then you should give this set a try.

The Pros: Extremely affordable. Super sharp. Very light.
My wife and I both like them. Use them daily and don't have to worry about finding our "sharpest knife" in the drawer.

The Cons: Have seen rust spots show up and handle is very (even too) light. Feels kinda cheap.
After a few washes noticed some dark spots and then when left wet in the sink for the day it was more noticeable. Now we hand wash and dry immediately and put away to avoid that.
All in all, what you get for the money is more than fair. Definitely more than what I expected out of a $25-29 set of knives.

I work in the kitchen, specifically banquets, so that means A LOT of preparation and chopping. That also means you don't want to be carrying an expensive knives. Now these knives may rust easily, especially if you don't take car of them. But if you do, even these cheap knives can almost be equal to my expensive Japanese knives. I sharpen and shine them each time they seem like they need it. Super reliable and hasn't failed me. It even impressed my coworkers and head chefs. This is a very practical knife, I use this for work (and I sometimes would be chopping something for 7 hours). I even ordered some for my coworkers because they were so impressed. Saying this though, you have to know how to sharpen and polish them. Because they are still a cheap knife. So you will need to help maintain it. You get what you paid for. But I still 💯💯💯💯 recommend.

I've ordered this set multiple times. For the price it's great. Light weight, sharp and sturdy while holding up for a long time. I worked at a restaurant and my coworkers fell in love with this set as well.I've led them to purchase it. I also gifted it to my sister who fell in love with mine. Overall pleased with this item

I have tried a lot of "cheap" knives- but these are far and wide the best ones i've ever gotten "cheap". The box they come in makes for a GREAT gift. They are very sharp right out of the box. The weights on them feel light enough to handle with ease, but still have enough to them to not feel low quality. They sharpen easily and seem to hold their edge well.

My only complaint is I dont like the logo on the black part of the blade- but thats whatever for the price ya know? Otherwise I actually quite like the upper "non stick" painted blade. Its very comfortable to hold and gives you a good grip for proper holding position. Also- while the handles look like wood, they are infact plastic, they dont 'feel' plastic like... At least not to me. You dont get that cheap plastic reverberation or feel in the hand.

I think if you are someone on a budget like me, but want to treat yourself to something nice and good quality to use in the kitchen- this is the route to go.

PS. A little tip- if you want these knives to last you, after washing and drying (dont let soak, just do it after use) apply a thin thin layer of oil to the blade, just a drop or two on a paper towel for the whole knife blade. I use food safe mineral oil on my knives and cutting boards in very thin layers after use. It should basically be dry after application, you'd never know the oil is on it. This will prevent rust, oxidization, wear, and make the most of your money over time. Normally not something id do for "cheap" knives- but again. These are AMAZING for the price. Very good quality.
