The knives are sharp and sturdy. I like that there is a built-in sharpener and the slots are pretty much all the same size so you don't have to guess which slot each knife fits into. The set looks professional. see less

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE...These ... see more

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE...These are the best knives I have ever used, and I work for a meat company. These are just as good of a quality if not better then a knife that my company spends [$] each on. I defenitly recommend people to buy this set. see less

I purchased the Kitchen Aid Triple Riveted Cutlery set for my son's wedding shower. My soon to be daughter in law loved them and reports that they uses them all the time. Both love to cook, so it was a sharp gift that they will use for many years to come. see less

I have had these knives for 2 years and they still look new. These are the best knives I have ever owned. I take very good care of them. I oil the block and hand wash and hand dry all the knives before I put them in the block. I would really like to know if the people who had block problems oiled the block and put the knives away dry. It's wood! Hello? Follow the directions and you will be fine. see less

I bought this for my cousin's housewarming party and she loves them ! SHe uses them everyday and so far she hasn't complained. I thought they looked so nice I'm considering buying a set for myself! see less

I've read all the reviews ... see more

I've read all the reviews and decided I needed to add some positive reinforcement for this set of fantastic knives. I purchased these after lots of shopping around for price,quality, and availability. I have been overjoyed with their performance on all tasks from slicing a tomato to cutting hard crusted garlic bread! I like the sturdy craftsmanship, they look expensive,and the quality is superb. I utilize these puppies on a daily basis and I've never been disappointed. I can't, however, speak to the rust issue because I hand wash and dry my knives as a regular practice as I've been told its better and keeps them sharper. I'm off to chop some carrots! Happy cooking! see less

Beautiful knife set! the wooden holder looks great on the counter. The knifes cut so well and feel wonderful in your hand. There is even a built in sharpener! I looked at so many sets, but this one was a great quality and the style I was looking for! see less

I got this knife set as a bridal shower gift. I use them every single day and I love them. Before this set I had a set that was about [$] less but the quality was not very good. These knives cut well and feel good in your hand and I love the built in sharpener! see less

I purchased this knife set for my new kitchen and I absolutely love the look, weight and feel of the knives. see less

I'm very surprised by how ... see more

I'm very surprised by how many negative reviews this knife set has received. I've had this set for over a year and have yet to be dissatisfied. I do quite a bit of cooking for my family and use these knives nightly. No, they are not dishwasher safe, but even the highest quality knives recommend hand washing to extend the life of the knife. I let them air dry after hand washing and have not seen any rusting. For the quality and look, the price cannot be beat. These look perfect with our stainless steel appliances. see less

My husband and I received these knives as a wedding gift, and we love them. They cut steak and chicken very well. Plus, they look really nice sitting on my granite countertops. I have been putting them in the dishwasher, and so far we've not had any problems. see less

Ok, for those of you who ... see more

Ok, for those of you who can read, this will be a great knife set for you. The directions SPECIFICALLY say, HAND WASH ONLY. So of COURSE they messed up when you put them in the dishwasher. I purchased my set over a year ago and NONE of my knives have any rust, the block is in perfect condition, and none of the knives have dulled at all and these are used on a daily basis. I hand wash (keyword "hand wash") these as soon as I am finished using them, dry them completely before placing back in the block and have had no problems at all. Some of the other reviewers probably left them sitting in the sink for a while before washing them which will 1. dull the knives and 2. cause them to rust. If you actually take care of your stuff you won't have a problem. see less

Very functional and the color looks great. Knives are sharp and probably never need sharpening. see less

I received these knives a ... see more

I received these knives as a wedding gift a couple months ago, and they are fabulous. The candy apple red is bright and pretty, and adds a nice pop of color to my kitchen. The scissors are also really nice for cutting meats and pesky packaging. They are nice a sharp, and great for chopping vegetables. My only problem is that even after hand washing them and carefully drying them after use, the red paint is beginning to chip off of some of the handles and the metal underneath is showing through. Other than that, I really like them. see less

Excellent cutlery set for the money, great value! Had the set for a year now and still sharp as ever. The finish has really held up, the red enamel doesn't chip, though I do wash them by hand. see less

The knife set was a gift on a wedding registry andI I had diificulties acquiring other items from the registry either due to shipping restrictions or the Target store not providing equivalent items. see less

I have several other expensive knives and as far as cutting these seem to be the best! They are sharp and smooth. The only downfall is that they rust easily if you put them in the dishwasher or lay them out to dry. You HAVE to wash and dry them immediately. I made the mistake of doing both. They are a little bit rusted and don't look as pretty as my other knives but I use them everyday over them. see less

I love these knifes, I have had them for about 5 months now and they are still very sharp and I have not had any rust problems like, but my dishwasher does do a really good drying cycle. I have not had to sharpen them at all so far and I use some everyday. They come clean very easy. I really like the handle feel on the bigger knifes very comfortable to hold. The steak knifes are serrated and the big knifes are smooth blade except the utility knife is still serrated. Great knifes and good price (It got them for regular price but I have seen them for $ before, on sale) see less

We received these knives as a wedding gift and they are great! Make sure to hand wash though, which I always do with nice knives! They cut through steak like butter, and they look expensive which I love :) see less

I bought our set about 2 mos ago and it's worked out great for us. It seems like most complaints are with rusting, but we followed the directions and hand wash our knives making sure they don't sit and rust. We don't run them in the dishwasher. These knives cut wonderfully. Good product at an affordable price. see less

I've had this set for just over a month and I love them! I do accidentally cut myself quite often, so I know how sharp they are. Good set and great for my needs, especially at such a cheap price. Love these!!! see less

these were very cute but simply not practical. i didn't expect amazing quality because of how cheap they are but goodness they got dull FAST see less

First, these knives look great in the kitchen! I chose this set of knives because the blades are also colored. I had seen just a couple of other sets, but they didn't come with the block. These knives are sharp, and durable. I look for something to cut every time I'm in the kitchen! see less

Received this as a gift from my mom and absolutely love it. I am by no means a pro chef, but enjoy cooking for my friends and this set does the trick. see less

Unlike many other reviewers, I did not receive these as a gift, I had to fork out my own cash to get them. I did do some research before purchasing. Great set for under [$]. Full tang, triple rivited. Having 8 steak knives is a plus. Block has extra slots to add more knives. My knives slice through a sheet of paper without any difficulty. These knives are weighted well and feel great in my hand. I gave four stars for quality because they are made in [...]. I hope this review helps you in your knive shopping experience. see less

My husband and I registered for the item for our wedding, although we didn't get it we used our registry close out coupon for it and are so glad we did. The set includes all the knives we need and the block even has some extra slots to include some other knives we had/purchased to add it it (i.e. a bread knife, a cheese knife that came with a different gift). The knives are sturdy and cut cleanly and smoothly through anything we've used them for. I liked that it included scissors, a sharpener, and 2 more steak knives than we noticed with other sets. A definite worthwhile buy! see less

I just recently received the Calphalon 16pc Cutlery set as a gift and I really like how the set looks on my countertop. The knives are all very sharp and cut well. They fit well in any size hand.I would definitely recommend this item to others or even purchase this as a gift! see less

I just bought this set of ... see more

I just bought this set of knives, and unpacked them. I must say, these feel really nice in the hand with great fit and balance. I love the way they are one piece and look like solid steel even though they aren't. The handles seem to be just the right size and shape or my hands. The variety in this set pretty much covers anything you might need to do with a knife in the kitchen. I'm not sure about the durability yet, or sharpness out of the box. I do consider myself a pretty good knife sharpener, so I'll be straightening the edges out myself and touching them up whenever it's needed. Over all I am impressed with the knives, but there are a few minor irregularities in finish, shape, and straightness if you look close - that's why I only gave them 4 stars for quality. The solid bamboo blocks are........VERY HEAVY. They won't be moving around much on my counter. If they were sold by the pound, the blocks alone would be worth the purchase price. see less

Initially, I was happy with this particular purchase. However after about two months I noticed a crack running down the center of the blade of the chef's knife. Very surprised by this, I contacted Target, explained the situation to them [...]. Thinking this was a fluke thing, I immediately purchased another set. Less than a year later, my new set was dull and rusted. I was really surprised at the poor quality of these knifes. I really expected much better. Being frustrated, I finally decided to buy an entirely new set of knives. [...] see less

This set was discontinued from a store where I was registered for my wedding shower, and I found it at Target.com when using a gift card my husband and I received. Great price, and excellent quality! I will certainly use Target.com again in the future see less

I purchased a set of Onei ... see more

I purchased a set of Oneida kitchen knives but read up on the basic care for all stainless steel. Stainless is not stain proof and depending on any combination of factors can become pitted or stained. The most consistent advice for keeping cutlery from degrading is to HAND WASH in mild detergent and dry immediately after use. A simple online search will lead to lists of destructive agents (for example, kitchen salt) in which cutlery should not be allowed to sit for extended periods of time. Dishwashers and dishwasher cleaning agents can be very destructive. I have other "expensive" knives and always clean them immediately to avoid damage. I love my new knives and plan to enjoy them along with my professional knives for a long time! see less

These knives are nice & sharp and are comfortable to hold in your hand. I love the sleek design. I have had them for 2.5 years and they are still in very good condition. I do not have a dishwasher so I can't speak to their durability on that front, but I have soaked them in water overnight and have had no problems. see less

We have owned this set of steak knives for two weeks, and tonight one emerged from our dishwasher with rust stains. Cannot recommend. see less

These Henckels paring knives are ideal for small jobs in the kitchen. The blades are super sharp and resharpen easily. The different shapes work great for different fruit and vegetable sizes and shapes. The brightly colored handles make it a snap to get the right one out of the knife safe and the handles have just enough width to be comfortable in the hand.Even my skeptical spouse likes them. What more could you ask? see less

The knives were sharp and colorful making them easy to use and easy to see in the drawer. Will be buying a second set see less

I purchased this set of knives because we had not yet received the block set that we registered for, and we just needed something cheap to get us by. I am extremely surprised by these knives. I know that Henckels is a great name, but I did not expect such great knives for the price. Now we have our knife set, and these fit right in the wooden block. You would never know that they were so inexpensive and from Target! I have been using them for about 6 months now. I hand wash them, and I have not had a single problem. see less

I purchased 2 of these in addition to our block set, and we love this set! The knives are sturdy and cut great. I do however suggest hand washing them, as putting them in the dishwasher fades the handles. see less

These are very good knives. The reason for only four stars is because I thought that the term "fine edge" meant that the edge was smooth, which is what I wanted, but these edges are slightly serrated. However, they are sharp and cut well. see less

We got this for my dad who loves GINSU knives. The price was such a steal we got one for him and one for a wedding gift for someone. The knives are super sharp and work wonderfully cutting everything we've used them for. see less

We have owned this set for more than 5 years. I really like the way it looks and I am very pleased with the quality. We haven't sharpened the knives yet, they still are very sharp - I don't know maybe I don't use them as much as other people, but I cook almost every day. I was very surprised to read that someone complained about them getting rusty! I wash them after using and wipe them with a kitchen towel and they still look great. I ordered this set as a house warming gift for my brother 5 days ago, it came quickly, in a perfect condition. The only flaw I would like to point out is that it has a hole in front of the "base", right in the middle, as if for scissors, which is not included. We simply bought a pare of scissors in black, and it fits in quite nicely. see less

I saw these at the store for $19.99 and figured what the heck. Great buy!! These make slicing food real easy, like a hot knife thru butter. I would recommend these to anyone who is serious about slicing, dicing and cutting food. see less

my 3 roommates and 2 of our fiancees love these knives! they are wonderful! we have 6 people cooking meals during the week and the knives have not worn down at all in the past 11 months. it is truly effortless cutting. we are all buying our own sets of these knives now. we love them! see less

Excellent knives--great price! What more could you ask for? Recently got these as a gift from our wedding registry and they are absolutely amazing! They go in and out of the dishwasher all the time...no hand washing here! They are still super sharp and cut through any meat like butter. My husband loves them and he is really picky about knives retaining their sharpness. see less

I recently used J.A. Henckles Steak knives at a upscale steak restaurant. So i went home and googled J.A. Henckels and saw them for sale on the Target web site. I decided to purchase them and OMG! There AWESOME. Going on less than a year with them and dozen steaks later they still have there sharpness and shine. If your a Meat person these knives are what you should be cutting the meat with. see less

When I started using thes ... see more

When I started using these knives, I was very disappointed to find that they are very dull and don't sharpen very well. One of the knives had the tip broken off when I took them out of the box. After mangling several onions and peppers, I decided to get a better set of knives for chopping vegetables. If you need knives for more than opening letters and plastic packaging, I strongly recommend getting a higher quality set. see less

I like how the 2 rows nestle so you can store in in a drawer. We did not need the steak knifes so we put those away and put some extra paring knifes and other favorites in thier place. The knives that come with the block are good for the price. Works perfectly so now no more ugly block on the counter and no sharp edges exposed in the drawer. see less

I had a set of far more e ... see more

I had a set of far more expensive knives. But these were what I bought to fill the gap when those were stolen. My old Mesermeister chef knife alone cost 4 times this set. This entire 4 piece set contains about every knife one would generally need in a proffessional kitchen, minus a serated bread knife. These knives are made of soft steel. You will need to sharpen them. --Note a "steel" doesn't sharpen, it only hones. It will make it perform sharper. Once the edge is gone, however metal will need to be ground off to resharpen it. I have a stone and do sharpen these fairly often.-- Many cutlery stores offer free sharpening. Also if you know a cook or chef, I am sure they would be pleased to assit you. They will not hold the edge of a knife of superior steel, nor will they hold it as long. However, for the cost these are fairly good knives. I however, would not recomend them unless you know how to sharpen with a stone or know someoneone willing to do so fairly routinely. see less

The knives are okay. I had one break after about a month under very light use. They're not super sharp, even with a sharpener, but they work well enough. see less

Purchased 2 paring knives and both failed in the same way within days of one another under light usage. Prior to failure they were satisfactory but don't think they would stand up long to heavy usage as the handle is plastic and both broke in the same spot, obviously a design flaw see less

I have this block sitting next to a block of Cutco knives.Guess which I like the best? The Paula Dean set. NO searated edges ... thank God. Steel isn't super hard and I can shave with them after sharpening. For [Price]you can't beat this. Cutco's cost me over [Price]and I don't generally like them ... much in part to searated edges on 2/3's of them. I even like the non serrated PD's better see less

This whole set is a piece of junk - after just a month of using them, they are rusty and even left rust stains on my sink. If you wash it in the dishwasher, the rust stains get worse. I am throwing out my whole set because they don't honor the warranty either. see less

I have now had this set f ... see more

I have now had this set for over two months. Firstly, the price was amazing for such quality. Secondly, I chose it because it had no "bells and whistles" like scissors and steak knives, etc.. I already had those. Thirdly, the footprint it takes up on my counter is perfect, fitting in with other tools and appliances. The great surprise was the quality. These knives came with an amazingly sharp edge and are easy to maintain in that condition. The heft of the pieces is pretty impressive, with great balance and the ability to slide through most everything with ease. Anyone ready for paper-thin slices of anything you want? see less

I made a good choice picking this. The knives are nice & it comes with a sharpenig stick (that I need to learn how to use). The block is made of very nice looking wood & looks nice on my counter. It's nice to have some good knives for the first time! see less

They look nice, cut great, recently got them so I don't know how long they will stay sharp, but they are impossible to keep clean. I put them in the dish washer and I end up with water spots, so I now wash them by hand and I dry them immediately rubbing the water spots off otherwise they always look a little dirty. Might just be my water but I would stick to knives that do not have stainless steel handles in the future. see less
