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

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 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

Bought this set for a Christmas exchange gift (hoping that I would be taking them back home with me) but EVERYONE wanted them. I didn't end up with them, so I will be ordering another set for myself. A very nice knife set. 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

I bought this in store for [$]. Its perfect for petite hands like mine . I found chopping with 7" chef knife extremely difficult so bought this one. It glides effortlessly while cutting, is not at all heavy like those chef knifes and is extremely sharp and ergonomic. love it. see less

I received these knives as a gift and have given them as a gift too. They are great! I use them for almost everything. Make sure to wash them by hand to keep them sharp longer. I've had mine for a few years so I have had to sharpen them but even when they aren't at their sharpest they cut better than other knives. see less

I bought the red version of her santoku knifes. I dont know if I have used them too much already but they seem to need to be sharpened already. I have used the larger one at home a LOT. They are still the best knifes I have ever used and super sharp but not like when they came right out of the package. Also I have followed the instructions to immediately wipe clean, dry and put away. I still love them though! see less

These knives have performed miserably like all of overpriced stuff. If you're going to spend this much on 2 knives, get a different brand. see less

I purchased the entire knife block from the De Laurentiis line and im very happy with all the knives. I had no problems cutting through apple skin, pear skin, i even used it on a potato. I am very satisfied with this knife. The only complaint I have about it is I would have liked to see the handle a little larger because i have very large hands, other than that this knife will certainly not let you down. see less
