CUISINART Block Knife Set 15pc Cutlery Knife Set with Steel Blades for Precise Cutting Lightweight Stainless Steel Durable

After doing quite a bit of research on knife sets under $100, I found this gem. I bought them on PrimeDay (They were on sale for $65 and I got $15 coupons due to prime day offers! Thus, I paid only $49.99! As for the knives, all you need is 3 main knives, the Chef knife, A serrated bread knife, and a pairing knife. This set has all of them and they are FORGED knives! This means one piece of steel was used to create the knife instead of two. That is just an amazing feature and for $49.99 it was the BEST bang for my buck! The cons, the steak knives are NOT forged knives, they have cast knives, (2 pieces put together) However, they are SHARP, and a good set. All in all, I was looking for a cheap set of knives and this proved to be an amazing starter set for the price. It honestly can't be beaten. In fact, at $80 it is still a bargain. Therefore, I highly recommend this set of knives. Besides the steak knives, the rest of them are all forged knives so it is quite a good deal. The chef knife has good balance and good weight to it. When sharp it slices everything like butter so that is what you want in a knife! Pairing knife is good, and the serrated knife cuts bread like a champ! I highly recommend this set and I hope you enjoy it as well! Read more

Owned for 2 months. This might be my favorite ever set of knives. They are INSANELY sharp out of the box! DANGEROUSLY SO. Fillet anything including one layer of skin sharp. Best not to let anyone who isn't VERY experienced with knives use them until you break them in. I actually like these more than JA Henckel classic forged. They feel better in the hand and seem to be of better quality steel as I left both brand new chef knives next to each other on the edge of my sink for 2 days (I know, 😬) When I washed them both the Cuisinart was stain free and JA Henckel has 15 tiny rust spots now. I can get them off, but still, Cuisinart had zero. The handles are comfortable! I was concerned about the roundness of the edges and whether or not they might slip in my hand, but not even once. Fantastic knives! 2 gripes (but still warrants the 5 start review). One, the position of the scissors. When the chef knife is drawn in or out of the block the blade edge can hit the scissor handle. I feel over time this will dull the blade so I've had to remove the scissors from the block. Two, I don't love the paring knife! It's just a normal, simple paring knife, but I don't like it. I think the metal is too thick. It's too hefty? I really don't know how else to describe it. Peeling potatoes or apples...meh, I have a thinner, cheaper paring knife in my drawer that I use. But if those are the only two faults I can find... I'm still calling this a WIN! Read more

Definitely a great option for beginner and intermediate cooks and chefs. No professionals in our home, but we spend a good deal of time in the kitchen and do almost everything from scratch. Blades are sharp, block looks good on the counter and has a relatively low profile. Overall a really nice quality for the cost. The only complaint was first time through a dishwasher was tragic. lol A couple knives were inadvertently put into the dishwasher by a "helpful" guest and immediately damaged with rust spots. We've cleaned and oiled them to refresh a bit, but just not the same. Wouldn't recommend them as "dishwasher safe" though it's not a big deal to hand wash them after using. Otherwise, these would be a 5 start item for sure. Read more

I’ve had this set for four years and these knives are great! They are very sharp and stay very sharp. I have yet to need to sharpen them. Has every type of knife the average person needs. Even bought a set for my parents and they love them too. I’ve had no issues with rust or really any problems with them. Love the scissors too. Read more

These are extremely sharp knives that work well for our family kitchen. I am impressed by the weight and size of the knives in this set. This set is an excellent tool that will add to your enjoyment of both cooking and dining. The chef knife may be my favorite. Slicing vegetables is faster and easier, plus the end result is prettier and more appetizing than I have achieved with lesser knives. No mushed pieces. Also very pleased by the small set of very fine 'teeth' at the tip of the blade on the steak knives. They glide through meat, rather than ripping it. We have had no problems with rust, but we don't wash them in the sink with other items. They get wiped immediately after use and returned to the block. Have been using them for a little over a month now and they still look great. Read more

These knives are the best value I've seen. I've waited too long to get new ones--way too long--because of expense, but these knocked me over. They're perfect. Clean lined, sharp (be careful!) and sturdy. I'm a gourmet home cook and these are so smooth. SUCH A GREAT BUY for the money! Read more
