So sharp be careful

I purchased this set a little over a year ago and we love them! They’re perfectly balanced great quality and have a good weight to them so they’re comfortable to hold. They are extremely sharp so like other reviewers have said be careful with them, they did indeed land us in the ER needing stitches on one finger that the large knife almost sliced all the way through like butter. But none the less we still love them. We hand wash only and dry immediately and have had no issues with rust.

The chef's knife is my favorite knife in my collection so far! Incredibly sharp, great workmanship

These knives are really nice. I cook a lot and am comparing them to my other knives from Victorinox and Tojiro.The craftsmanship on the handle is excellent, everything is very smoothly fitted with no crevices or gaps. This is to be expected as they are NSF certified, and I appreciate that they took the time to get that certification. The design on the handle is attractive and well executed.Out of the box, these are equal to the sharpest knives I've ever used. They could push cut paper with almost no pressure. Edge retention is decent, but could be better. This is likely because they were so sharp out of the box. After the first use slicing up lots of eggplants they were slightly less sharp. They still glided through food, they were just not quite as sharp as they were out of the box and struggled to push cut paper. With further use they did continued to maintain an acceptable level of sharpness and did not experience a sharp decline.The only negative I've noticed other than the edge retention not being perfect is that the sides of the blades have a slight texture from the grinding process. I wish they had been sanded/polished just a little more.In comparison to the other knives I have, these seem on the same level as the Tojiro DP and Victornox blades. (see update below) This is very subjective, but they seem a little less hard than the Tojiro blades, but also slightly less delicate. This chef knife handles as though it is thinner than the Victorinox blades and is certainly sharper out of the box. With that said, Victorinox knives are very good workhorse knives and are likely more resistant to abuse like being put in a dishwasher than these would be. One is not necessarily better than another, but each one is better for different users.Overall, I would rate these 5/5. They aren't perfect (and I have yet to find a perfect knife), but they are very close. If you are willing to maintain the blade and ok with frequent honing to keep it razor sharp, these seem to be a good option.Update:After 2 months, I'm evenly impressed with these knives. I primarily use the chef's knife, but use the paring and serrated knives occasionally The minuscule amount of texture on the side of the blade doesn't have an effect in real world use. They absolutely still deserve the 5 star review.With the chef knife in particular, the blade remains extremely sharp and the thinness of the blade helps it glide through food effortlessly. I suspect that the thinness of the blade could be a problem if the knife were dropped on its tip or abused, but any knife that is abused will suffer damage. This has become my favorite knife to use.that was dr

Cangshan ELBERT Series 3 Piece Starter Set German Steel Knives

I'm always looking to add quality knives to my collection of kitchen tools, so when I saw this set of 3 German Steel knives, I decided to give them a try.The set contains a paring knife, a serrated steak or utility knife and a chef's knife. Because they're stainless steel they're easy to hand wash, but I don't put my high quality knives in the dishwasher (as this manufacturer recommends).The knives are forged from German steel, which is known for its toughness in kitchen knives. The steel is hard enough to hold its edge well without the need for frequent honing, but not so hard that it will be brittle and prone to chipping. This means that this set of knives is ideal for just about any task in the kitchen.The blades are razor sharp and cut through ingredients effortlessly, while the full tang stainless steel construction is what I look for in a well-made knife - it improves the balance and durability of a knife.The handles are ergonomically designed, making them comfortable to hold even during long periods of chopping or slicing. They feel weighted in just the right way, allowing for precise cuts without any wobbling. This is especially noticeable when using the larger knife to chop herbs or vegetables.I love having three different sizes to choose from, as it means I always have the right knife within reach for whatever I'm prepping, whether I'm chopping herbs, slicing meat thinly for stir-fries or dicing vegetables for a soup.I would highly recommend this set of Cangshan German Steel Knives to anyone who is serious about cooking and wants to invest in high-quality tools. They make my kitchen prep so much easier!Good knives make all the difference and are the only kitchen tool you can't do without. This set will help you elevate your cooking to the next level and will save you money in the long run as you equip yourself to eat in, rather than dining out.

I love this brand

But… machine marks on the knives. They seem sharp enough and are great knives, but visually, they could be a little better on the actual blade.
