"Knife block is okay" 2009-01-19
By Moscow Jon (Moscow, ID)
You certainly don't want to purchase this set for the knives, which are very low quality. The kife block is just okay but is unique enough to make it worth while.
"Nice enough knife block, but read reviews & beware!" 2009-01-08
By gailcny
This is almost comical, really. I was looking for a knife block and only a couple of new knives. So after reading all the reviews of this set, and not finding any other knife blocks with this unusual design - except at a much higher price - I decided that I would buy this just for the knife block. Another thing that I thought would be worth keeping, however, was the honing steel. Well, guess what? It doesn't even fit into its little space! The diameter of the slot is just slightly smaller than it needs to be, so the steel sticks up at least 2 inches higher than it should, instead of fitting in all the way up to the handle!! I just had to laugh, since I went into this knowing pretty much what I was getting. It's certainly fixable, but I just had to share this.

I got these knives for my mom for Christmas, and she loves them. I've only used them once over there and think they are well made and comfortable. And the Glass block looks amazing! Beautiful way to show off your Steel.
"Looks "sharp"" 2008-01-12

The set looks great in my kitchen.I love the weight of the knives and how the blades continous through the handle. All in all a great value. Be sure and sharpen them before using.
"Made to look good, not to use" 2007-03-19
By Naomi (Storm) (Texas)
I am very particular about my knives; I hate having other people use them or mistreat them, and I get very protective about things like how they're stored or cleaned and what they're used on. Living in a household with a roommate and her two children, I decided that instead of getting annoyed each time I found my Global or Henckels knives carelessly tossed into the sink, I would purchase a set of cheap knives for the children to use and therefore allow myself to horde my knives without feeling remorse.
I found these Pinzon knives on Amazon and unfortunately when I bought them there were only a couple of reviews, mostly pretty good. I purchased the set and awaited their delivery. Upon their arrival I checked them out, put them inside their little display case and didn't think too much about it.
When I was making dinner one day, I decided to try these knives out just to see what quality they were. The first thing that shocked me was the thickness of the blade. I never really thought I'd ever call a knife fat, but these were exactly that - these were fat knives. The edges were "ok," it was very obvious that they were roughly machine sharpened and not with a very fine grit. Unfortunately the thickness of the metal was actually obstructing the use of the knife - the knife was so thick that the blade could not cut in a downward slice in a straight line - the blade would actually veer off due to the differential thickness between the edge and the spine of the blade. Imagine taking an Idaho potato, putting the chef's knife at dead center, pushing downward and ending up with a diagonal cut which "leaned" right or left instead of going straight down the center - that's what you get with these knives.
If you're planning on doing some serious cooking with these knives, I would highly suggest saving your money and saving up for a single really good knife instead of this collection of really bad knives. Yes, I can say without a doubt that you will get far more use out of a single 8" chef's knife that costs $50-80 than out of this entire set of really bad knives.
If you only do moderate cooking, I would still say stay away from these knives - they are badly made to the point where I could consider them dangerous. You're not going to have the blade go flying off or shatter into a million pieces, but instead, you're getting a knife that will not cut straight, and that's about as dangerous as you can get.
If you're getting a set of knives that you want to look pretty on your counter, hey, this is a great set for that.
