Perfect Kitchen Knives
I love these. This is such a great set and for the price - they are a steal (I got them when they were around $20 I believe - but even at $30ish, I believe they are a good value - the price on these seems to fluctuate so I would keep an eye on it if you want to snag them for less)They wash extremely well in the dishwasher, they are super sharp and the variety is a perfect set for a starter set.I had a small 3 knife set I bought a couple years ago that wasn't that great when I bought it, but had a chef's knife and a serrated blade and a small pairing type blade and it worked for my needs. But I moved into my new apartment last year and that small set of 3 knives just wasn't working as well with me doing more prep and cooking for myself at home. This set gives me enough variety, and enough pieces to do everything I need to do and never come up empty when I need to grab a knife. It has everything I need and nothing I don't.The covers are very nice also just for safety and keeping the knives sharp. I keep them in their covers in a jar on my counter so they are in easy reach when I am cooking and it is a fun little thing on my counter to have basically a vase full of colorful knives out lol.They definitely feel like quality knives and I am going to keep them in as good of condition as I can to ensure they last me a good long while because I like them so much.Really don't have a single bad thing to say about them - unless you count "please for the love of god learn how to curl your fingers like a claw when cutting things so you don't slice off any of your fingers!" lol - which I did not say, but my best friend did - about 10 minutes before I nicked myself exactly like she said I would lol. So yeah - they do what they say and they are very sharp, even after several months of use now - so make sure to look up proper knife skills lol.

Great set of knives for any kitchen.
I really like these knives. I do a lot of cooking, I enjoy it. I took a few cooking classes with some pros when I worked as a manager at a large chain restaurant that has good quality food & I discovered that to me preparing a large gourmet meal is relaxing & rewarding, especially if it's for friends & family. It does mess up your "groove" though when you are trying to chop, slice, etc. with dull, badly handled knives.At the restaurant we used great knives & they were kept sharp. I loved them, but for some reason I never invested in a good set for myself at home. My knives weren't bad, & I sharpened them regularly, but I think my continue use of them was mostly sentimental. The knives I use were (some still are) my mom's & she received them as as wedding gift. They were expensive, nice knives, but they have aged & it's hard to keep them sharp now.So, after that story that no one really needed to hear, lol, I'll tell you about the Cuisinart set. Even though I mentioned investing in a nice set of knives, these definitely weren't not priced that way. In fact, the price almost deterred me at 1st; I thought good knives could not be that cheap, but I think our brains in the US have been trained to think anything good must be expensive & it's just not always true.I like that these are colored; I can quickly grab the knife I want from the larger ones based on color. Some ppl might want them uniform if they keep them out on display, but mine are in a drawer. They are all sharp, I tested them all when I received them after reading a few reviews that said some were dull. They've cut through everything I've used them on beautifully, raw chicken, bread, lots of melons & pineapple, etc.I like having covers so they can't get beat up & dulled when storing. I used a set similar to these at my sister's & asked where she got them. She sent me the link but they aren't available anymore. I found these & I think they are actually better.I think whether you do a light amount of cooking, or cook larger meals almost daily, like me, you'll like these. There's a knife for everything. They sit very nicely in your hand & have good weight to them.
