Use & Care
Use
- Always use caution when handling sharp objects.
- Avoid cutting on hard surfaces, such as stone, metal and glass.
- It is not advisable to use any knife but a meat cleaver to cut through bone, as other blades can be easily damaged.
Care
- Hand-wash with warm water and mild detergent.
- Rinse and dry immediately.
- Use honing steel regularly to maintain cutting edges of blades.
- Sharpen as needed. With regular use and honing, knives should not need sharpening more than once or twice per year.
- Sharpen straight-edge knives at home using whetstone or knife sharpener, or have them sharpened by a professional.
- Sharpen serrated knives at home using sharpener specifically designed for serrated blades, or have them sharpened by a professional.
- Store knives in safe place to protect edges and prevent injury.

Just ok for the price
Rivet already fell out of steak knife after 1 use. Very sharp, block is nice. Selection of knives isn’t great. None are large enough to cut up meat. A bit disappointing for the price. even on sale.

Knife Block
I just ordered this & for what I paid I am very disappointed. The block isn’t even the right block. The knifes don’t even fit securely into the block. You would think for this kind of money it would be correct.
S**a
Fake set?
Got these a couple years ago and they’re not heavy as I expected, their logo on the knives were just stickers which fell off and they go dull very fast. Not satisfied after these years

Not what I expected
The knife block itself is very nice but there aren’t enough knives to fit the slots in the block. Photos are deceiving. Also, I received 5 steak knives instead of six. The knives are very lightweight and do not feel like the quality I expected. My mom has a set of the same knives she has had for years and these are not the same quality at all. I am very disappointed and do not recommend them at all.

Sharp knives but..
The knives are sharp but the small knives have nowhere to go in the block. Instead you have to use large slots in the block for the small knives. It looks and feels goofy having to do that.

We like the knives but
We like the knives but the wood block doesn't have enough slots for the 8 steak knives and has empty slots when all knives and other devices are stored
