Victorinox Swiss Classic Knife Block - Kitchen Knife Set with Block for Home Essentials - Includes Chef's Knife, Santoku Knife & More - Black Handles, 15-Piece Set

If you are a value buyer like myself, there is no better knife to use. We have purchased various high quality knives for our home over the years, mainly Wosthof and Henckels that varied from $100 up to several hundred each. Then I started a farming business about ten years ago where we processed our own chickens on the farm. I had about 15 employees on processing days and we had a Department of Agriculture approved operation directly on the farm. I had to make buying decisions for knives and wanted something durable, not extremely expensive, and something that would hold the sharpness well so

This set is incredible! Very sharp, easy to handle, many different uses. The only thing I found strange was the wooden storage block (counted as one of the 15 member set) was not made specifically for the 14 knives. There are 3 more openings that stay empty for knives that aren’t there. Otherwise, it looks nice, but takes up a lot of counter space.

I am 95% pleased with this. I understood that the Swiss Army line uses inexpensive handles to keep the price point down and affordable. The handles are very durable, they are comfortable for me.Because Amazon stocks and ships these, I understand that the condition of the box is not something the manufacturer can control.The wood block is real wood. The slots are oversized. The 15 piece set has 3 extra slots. The current image does not fully represent how to arrange the knifes. I adjusted them to make sense for me.The knifes are sharp and sturdy. Easy to use and clean.The scissors have a poorly

Been using this for 5 years. Great set. Super sharp, even now. No rust. Lightweight, thin, & strong. Slices easily though just about everything. Highly recommend.

These are great knives. I let a couple of coworkers know that I needed to buy knives because the old cheap FaberWare set I bought from Walmart were falling apart. Two coworkers gave me suggestions, and both of them suggested Victorinox.When I initially unboxed the knives I was disappointed. They were really light and the metal blades were quite flexible. This made them seem cheap to me. Everything about them since that point has been awesome.My old Faberware knives would rust from the dishwasher. I had to get them out of the dishwasher ASAP or they would rust really bad. I have seen zero rust

Super sharp - we’ve all cut our fingers they’re so sharp, but no complaints since the goal was sharp knives! Cuts were all user error as we all got used to sharp knives again after so many years with the old set!Would be 5 stars but the scissors fall apart every time we take them out of the holder - literally since before the first use; they’re just defective. (They’re meant to come apart for washing, but that doesn’t help if you don’t need to wash because they’re just not usable!) Our old set didn’t have scissors so not a huge issue, but just an annoyance - so I’d still buy them, as our prima

The knives were great. Best set I've ever had! The actual knife block slots were not squarely cut, but it doesn't show once the knives are in. I do like the fact that they give you 3 extra slots to add a few different knives. I love the knives but I had a Chicago Cutlery Metro set before so that's probably why I think these are big improvement. I read some of the reviews and someone compared these knives to Shun. I checked the prices on these knives and one chef's knife was $150 while the Victorinox was $40. I don't think that's a fair comparison. Some reviewers also complained about the handl

We just bought a new Airstream RV trailer to do road trips and rather than use old knives in the trailer, this was a great excuse to buy this set from Victorinox because my favorite knife is a Victorinox 8" chef's knife. That knife was highly rated by Cook's magazine. When I first got it, I thought it looked cheap because of the plastic handle, but I was wrong. Having used it now for several years, I love it (and I have other knives from companies such as Henckels, Hoffritz and Wusthof.)I love to cook and rely on good knives. This set has been excellent. Good balance in the hand, very sharp, a
