Awesome knives!
This review is for the Cutluxe Butcher Knife Set – Cimeter Breaking Knife & Bullnose Carving Knife for Meat Cutting – Professional Knife,Razor Sharp German Steel,Full Tang,Ergonomic,Butcher Knives for BBQ – Artisan Series.These are not the first knives that I have from this brand, and I love them! The other one I have from this set/series is the santoku. The right knives for each person are particular, depending on several factors. But there are some basic rules to start with. They need to be quality made using excellent materials. The metal needs to be properly forged, strong but not brittle to hold their edge, and they need to be properly edged with a sharp blade. Weight also comes into play, and that's diff for each person as to what feels the best. That weight also needs to be properly balanced between the blade and the tang/handle. The handle needs to be well made, solidly attached to the tang, and feel good in the hand of the user. And the shape/length of the blade also impacts the ease/comfort of use.When all these things come together in a quality made knife, it's a pleasure to use and won't cause hand fatigue as it will easily cut through the meat. And this set of "butcher" knives exemplifies all the best qualities you could want! I'm a woman with small hands, and these knives feel good in my hand, albeit they are a hevier weight knives.Want to butterfly some pork loin chops or boneless skinless chicken breasts? These will handle it with ease! Want to slice up a big ham for ham steaks? No problem! Love to BBQ a big rack of ribs... these will slice them up beautifully once cooked! Cooking a big roast beef or standing rib roast... these will slice it up easily once cooked! Want to cube up some meat for a delish casserole or stirfry... these will handle it with ease!The knife set comes in a very nice box with magnetic closure, it's heavy too when you pick it up, the box is inside and outer sleeve you slide off. Inside the knives are nestled on a molded black velvet bed of material with a thin piece of foam cushion on top. The blades have a clear plastic sheath on them and an extra little plastic protector over the points. When you open the inner box you'll find a booklet with info, read it! Do NOT put these knives in the dishwasher! And wash/dry them immediately after use! Above all be VERY careful with them as they're extremely sharp! There's also some free offers and a buffing cloth.This exquisite set of butcher knives are very high quality and worthy of gifting! Whether getting them for yourself, a home chef whom just loves to cook or a culinary pro... I don't think you can go wrong with these! Do make sure children can't get ahold of these for safety sake! You may want to consider getting a lockbox for the utmost security with them.Regular price $ 69.99 per the listing and worth every penny in my opinion!

Cutluxe is connoisseur quality at a consumer price. Highly recommended.
With knives, I am definitely more of a connoisseur than consumer. Hand to God, the Cutluxe Santoku is my favorite knife in my collection. I wanted to add another Santoku to my collection and I read ton of reviews to land on the Cutluxe. These knives do not disappoint. The ergos and balance are perfect. They feel like an extension of your body, which is my definition of a great tool. I wouldn't say they're heirloom quality, but lifetime for sure. Certainly an excellent value.Recently I got sucked into all the DIY butcher channels on social media. I've been telling my wife I want to buy a slab of meat next time we go to Costco and try to trim my own steaks. I couldn't believe my luck when these knives popped up on Vine. I think it's just a matter of time before I buy the whole Cutluxe collection for everyday service. I do have some even nicer blades I pull out a couple times a month for special occasions.Ladies, if you're looking for a gift for your man, especially if he likes to grill, these are a no-brainer. He will be stoked. They come in a nice box, too.

Excellent for bbq
I've used this set for multiple cooks outdoors and they don't disappoint!The edge out of the box is just okay, they will need to regularly honed to maintain any decent cutting power.Size is perfect, I used them to cut Dino ribs, brisket, and pork ribs with no issues.They're weight is excellent for my use case, they're hefty and that helps push it through large cuts of protein.They're great, but not amazing. I wouldn't replace any knives in my kitchen with these, but they're perfect for storing outdoors for the rougher and tougher outdoor cooking environment.

Sharp!
I use these mostly for BBQ and I'm very impressed. They come with a very sharp edge that makes cutting a rack of ribs down a quick and easy process. They even matched the style of my Wusthof knife handles so they blend into the existing knife block perfectly. They cut great and have maintained their edge just as well as more expensive knives I own.

Excellent knives for meat preparation
These paka wood knives have excellent ergonomics and nice weighted balance, a necessity when cutting large pieces of meat with very sharp knives. The full tang provides a solid feel and ample support for tackling even tough cuts of beef. The steel is German and the handle made of paka wood which offers outstanding endurance. These knives are built to last...the quality is excellent for the price (considerably less than German manufactured knives). I use these frequently for both large and small cuts as I find the butter smooth cut makes cooking any cut of meat far easier than using conventional cutting knives. The paka wood handles are a great choice for frequent use in dishwashers and after multiple runs in my dishwasher, the knives show no signs of fading or wear. All around a terrific, reasonably priced choice for quality butcher knives.
