Cuisinart 7pc Stainless Steel Essentials Block Set with Built in Sharpener

This knife block set by Cuisinart is the best thing ever. They are sharp, light and easy to use. It comes with a 7 piece set including shears and a sharpener. I have had no issues with cutting meat and veggies in preparation for meals. Great set and it fits great on my counter top not taking up much space.

The knives are well balanced giving the exact amount of weight I need for using them. They are sharp! I’ve yet to have to use the sharpener. The selection of blades types are perfect for all my cutting and prep needs. The block makes access of the knives convenient and it looks good in the counter coordinating well with my marble countertops. Very satisfied with the knives. They hand wash easily and still look and cut like new. A great investment

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these knives! Was in desperate need of a new set and these arrived! So sharp and a beautiful look in the kitchen! Love the built in sharpener! Unbelievable! They will never be dull! Seem like they’re durable and will last forever! Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Right out of the box they were sharp as could be! I gave them a quick rinse and tried them out with some meal prepping for the week. I used the Santoku & the slicing knife to slice and chop a fresh pineapple with ease! Then I used the slicing & paring knife to slice up some tomatoes and didn't even have to slice, the knife pretty much fell right through the tomato. Then I used the slicing knife to cut up a beef tenderloin and it was like cutting warm butter with a hot knife! No force needed! The only issues I had were the size of the Serrated Utility Knife, only being 5.5" doesn't allow you to cut through a full fresh baked loaf of bread length wise. The scissors, while sharp as all heck, don't have any padding on the outside of the handles, which made my hands kind of sore when I cut through a chicken bone. And the block stand, which is very nice looking, is top heavy. When i when to sharpen a knife, I had to hold down the block with my free hand, to prevent it from tipping over.
