Comment:
Great knifes at a good price for what your getting. I'm a professional chef and use these knives on a daily basis, performs the task at hand very well, also this list line of wusthofs comes in 8 handle sizes, that covers almost every knife in the set. My other set of knifes are hand made Japanese and cost 3 to 4 times more and are so far the only more preferred knifes to use. If your a home cook I highly recommend these.

Comment:
I use these knives every time I cook. I've had mine for over ten years and they work great. I bought each piece in the knife block one at a time. My first was the 8inch Chef's knife and a paring knife. I received several others. My go-to knife is the santoku. All are easy to sharpen and clean. I never put them in the dishwasher ( seriously, how difficult is t to hand was a knife? Besides, isn't it unsafe to place big knives in a dishwasher?). I recommend these knives to anyone looking for great, quality knives.

Comment:
We've had these knives for at least 10 years. They are comfortable in your hand and hold an edge very well. They are also easy to sharpen if you do it properly. We use the steel and occasionally the Wusthof sharpener. I've never put them through the dishwasher so I can't comment on that. The ones we use most are the 6 utility for just about everything, the 8 chef's knife which is great for mincing garlic or clams, and the bread slicer.

I bought this block set for my wife and she has been extremely happy with it. It's actually quite expensive but worth the price. Although it comes with a sharpener, my wife has never asked me to sharpen any knife. As it comes with a lifetime warranty, you may not need to spend any more for knives in your lifetime. Great buy.

Wusthof Classic 8 Piece Set
02/10/2008
Strength
Excellent craftmanship, balance, and sharpness.
Weakness
Expensive - But will last a lifetime.
I am very happy with this product. I purchased the 8 piece set because it contained basic knives for everyday use. I have found these knives to be incredibly sharp and well balanced. I purchased the 2 piece Asian set and 6 steak knives to complete the set. I am very satisfied with the purchase and know it will last a lifetime.
