Q: are these stapped or forgeed?

submitted by grant - 3 years ago
  • A: These are stamped according to https://www.ninjakitchen.com/compare/cutlery/

    submitted byJodana - 3 years ago
  • A: The previous comment is correct, these are stamped knives. The NeverDull "Essential" line is stamped. However, the better quality NeverDull "Premium" line is Forged.

Q: The video shows a bread knife for this set, so why isn't it included? Might want to update your marketing.

submitted by DiDi - 4 days ago
  • A: We're really sorry for the confusion. The video showcases a variety of knives from the entire series, not necessarily the specific set shown or sold under a particular model number. We understand how that can be misleading and appreciate you pointing it out. To avoid any disappointment, we always recommend checking the model number and reviewing the list of included items before purchasing, as not all sets come with every knife featured in promotional materials, including the bread knife.

Q: Do these knives rust easily? Dishwasher safe?

submitted by LAples - 3 years ago
  • A: No. DO NOT place knives in dishwasher. To clean your knives, hand wash and immediately dry thoroughly to prevent watermarks, spotting, and rusting. Dishwashers can reduce performance and longevity of your knives and damage the handles and blades. To increase the lifetime of your knives, only hand wash. DO NOT touch sharp edge of knife. If your knife blade shows signs of staining, use a non-abrasive metal polish for cleaning or gently scrub a 1:1 mixture of white vinegar and water with a non-abrasive sponge. Rinse and dry immediately.

Misleading, bad product, poor quality

I tested the sharpness of these knifes. Not very sharp out of the box, and the “never dull” handle system ended up dulling the knifes more. They don’t actually sharpen them anyways, no amount of pulling the handle will make the knifes sharper out of the box, only hone the edge. I stand by my Henckels knifes. If you need to really sharpen your knifes, get a Whetstone.

NOT THE SET ADVERTISED IN THE VIDEO!!

The video shows knives that have a continuous single piece of metal from the blade all the way through the entire handle. That is not this set. This set is a low budget version that gives the appearance of having the metal go from the blade through the handle, but doesn't. IMO it's a borderline scam.

Not worth it

Went to use the scissors for the first time to cut open a pack of gravy and they fell apart in my hands. This set is way to expensive to be trashy. Ive had dollar tree scissors that lasted longer. Super dissapointed in Ninja for this one.

Durable knives System

The knives in the system are very durable and sharp. I love having the knife sharpening system built in with a knives. You just have to remember to sharpen them at least every two weeks.

Great New Addition to our Kitchen

I love the Ninja Knife Set! The knives are razor-sharp and handle beautifully, making meal prep a breeze. The sleek block keeps everything organized and adds a modern touch to my kitchen. It’s a bit pricey, but definitely worth the investment for its quality and performance. The only bummer i would call out is that they are not dishwasher safe to clean but worth it for everything else.
