    This product was everything i expected, It is in Consumer Reports magazine as a best pick for a reason. Only flaw is that it does not come with a bread knife.

    I saw this knife set in a Consumers Report magazine and they were VERY highly rated. The good thing about these knives is that you get solid quality and performance but for much less than a Henckels or Wusthof type knife. I’m not a professional chef by any means so I don’t need to drop $300 – $500 on knives but the set I was using before was ridiculous. Long story short, these knives cut great and they even feel like a really solid product. I sort of smirked when I saw the name Ginsu. I still have those old-time infomercials in my mind’s eye but I guess Ginsu really is a legit brand name. I am definitely satisfied with this purchase!

    Just like everyone said these knives are very sharp and have stayed that way so far. The bamboo knife block and the handles are very well made and look very good. I have avoided rusting by cleaning and drying the knives as soon as im done with them. A quality product.

    These are very nice knives for the price. The balance is not what I am used to, and they are all metal, but they cut well and are easy to maintain.

    Like many other reviewers, this was an upgrade from your cheap stamped (cut from one sheet of metal) knives. These are razor sharp and cut through just about anything without effort. I was able to compare the Santoku knife to a Wusthof knife, which alone cost as much as this set; and the Ginsu knife wins. Better feel (weight), look, and sharper.

    Now for a few quibbles/comments:

    1. When purchasing this set, I liked the fact that it came with a Chef’s Knife and a Santoku. Now I don’t use the Chef’s Knife at all, I always reach for the Santoku knife instead.

    2. The shears look very cheap compared to the rest of the set, although they are plenty sharp.

    3. The serrated knife is good to have (I guess), but I’ve only used it for grapefruit thus so far.

    4. The utility knife (non-serrated) has gone almost unused.

    So in sum, great set at great price. I really only needed (and use) the santoku, paring, and steel (to hone).

    Note: Reviewers complaining about rust just almost certainly have not taken proper care of their knives. These should be hand washed and dried immediately after use. Don’t think about putting them in the dishwasher unless you don’t care about rust or appearance.
