 "Flimsy" 2008-09-28
By Ryker94 (East Coast USA)
I purchased these knives at a store's closing sale for $130. The list price was $329 so I thought I getting a great deal on a good knife set. I was very shocked when I got home to find them to be so flimsy. They are also very light and they don't fit well in your hands. I would not recommend this purchase. I ended up getting a J.A Henckels set from Bed Bath and Beyond and am MUCH happier. They are very sharp, fit well in my hand, and the blades are very thick and sturdy.

 "Lightweight steel" 2007-05-16
By B. Bergner (Milwaukee, WI USA)
The steel blades are very thin. This is not a heavyduty, chef's grade blade I expected with the Emeril name.

 "Great Knife Set!" 2008-11-15
By SRC (Katy, Texas)
These are very high quality and sharp knives. I was planning to buy the Henkels Four Star II, but didn't like the weight of the handles in my hands. After doing much research, I decided order and try the Victorinox knives since they had ergonomic handles, and they felt perfect in my hands. These knives should be sold in more local stores!

 "Good knives at a great price" 2009-09-10
By Charles C. Lamm
Have not used all of the knives yet, but the paring knives and the chef are both great. They are sharp and have a good feel to the hand. The only drawback I see so far is that the chef's knife could have a little more weight to it for hand control/feel when chopping food such as carrots, radishes, etc.

 "Best Knives Ever" 2009-02-03
By Edward M. Madden (FPO, AP United States)
Not only are the knives the "MOST EXCELLENT", the service in sending them to us was "EXTREMELY" prompt. We had ordered a similar set with 2 less pieces for $50 more, but it took over 2 months to come. We are so glad for the delay so that we could order yours with more pieces for $50 less.

 "Good blades, very sharp" 2009-02-02
By Raymond D. Tai (PA)
The blades are actually very sharp and steel is thick. The blade is much thicker and stronger than any other famous brands. I do not feel any part of them that are look cheap. They are worth the money.

 "Disappointed" 2008-01-24
By Michael Ward
I expected much better quality from Wustof. Very light and not a good feel.

 "Good knife set, great value!" 2007-11-24
By B. Hobbs (Los Angeles, CA)
WE're not professional chefs (or anywhere near it), but these knifes really do the job. They're very sharp, well weighted and great value!

 "Nice Knives" 2009-08-05
By Jeff W. Mason (TX)
I have used this brand before and like them, however the set arrived with one knife missing, as this was a gift and i didn't check it before hand this was kind of embarrassing. Amazon refunded me for the missing knife without any problem.

 "My wife couldn't be happier" 2009-06-06
By Gerald W. Lange
My wife has been using this brand of knife (walnut tradition-great handles) for over twenty years and when her favorite knife dropped to the floor (concrete) and snapped I started looking around for a replacement. She was very happy to get the entire set in the block. Very nice, and thank you.

 "Substantial knife set at a budget price point" 2009-06-05
By M. Potvin (SC PA)
In the overall scheme of things, this knives are cheap for the number of knives you get at the price point. I grew up in a household where we couldn't have a sharp knife because my mother would always slice her fingers open. Some 20 years later, a heavy sharp knife feels amazing when you're using it! Must be something about the mother thing, but I can imagine when cutting chicken that the blade is going right through my finger, bone and all. Which I think that most of these knives would be fully capable of doing!



I recommend that you use a sharpening kit like this for sharpening any knife: Smith's DFPK Diamond Precision Knife Sharpening Kit These kits are amazing and will put a professional edge on any knife. You can adjust the angle of the sharpening edge, down to the razor thin edge like an X-Acto blade.

 "Wouldn't use anything else!" 2009-04-02
By J Bruce Lindeman
Almost 30 years ago my Consumer Reports magazine rated Chicago Cutlery wood-handle knives as the best they tested, and a "Best Buy". So I bought a set.

Boy were they right!! All I have left is a single steak knife; my ex-wives have the rest of them. So now I have to buy a new set. I'm buying the same thing that I had before. I wouldn't buy anything else.

The one knife I still have is as good as the day I bought it. It has an incredible edge; a couple of swipes with the steel and you can shave with it. It rarely has been in the dishwasher; I clean it with a sponge and a bit of diswashing liquid. The wood handle looks a bit "used", but is as tight as ever on the 3-rivet tang.

I expect my new set to outlive me (I'm not in the market for any more wives).

"Contrary to popular belief", a "sharpening" steel doesn't actually sharpen the blade, it simply straightens out the microscopic cutting edges. When the knife gets dull (mine never has!) have it professionally sharpened -- NEVER use any knife "sharpener" that you can buy in a store!! It will more likely than not ruin the blade.

By the way, I also have read in Consumer Reports that lab tests came to the remarkable conclusion that wood surfaces harbor almost NO bacteria. Thyey're not sure why; there must be something in wood itself that is hostile to bacteria. Plastic surfaces, such as cutting boards, get microscopic cuts in them that become germ heaven!

 "Chicago Cutlery Walnut Tradition" 2009-01-26
By K. Domagalski (Cleveland Ohio)
This knife-set is excellent for the price. I have owned my set for 10+ years and they are still in great shape. The people who gave them a low rating are ignorant (1 star and 3 star). The person that gave them a 2 star rating seemed to like them but was comparing them to top shelf knives.



If you do not want to care for your knives and throw them in a

dishwasher; buy yourself a set of Ginsu knives every few years. If you

take care of these knives, they will last a long time.



I coat the wood handels every other month with mineral oil (double coat a new set the first time). This seals the wood to avoid staining and gives a richer look.

I also sharpen them as needed with a cheap Smith's knife sharpener (fine stone ONLY).

 "NOT SHARP!" 2009-08-24
By Lindsay M. Sera
These knives look beautiful, the block is beautiful but boy was I disappointed the second I realized the pairing knives wasn't slicing through my potato. Only after trying 3 other knives to make sure it wasn't just the one, I had to use so much pressure to even get one cut. Plus the serration leaves a horrible pattern on anything you cut...not good for any presentations you'd want to do. I am very very disappointed. I guess you get what you pay for. I'm going to trade up for a more expensive set with more ratings and good ones at that. Please don't waste your time on this set!
