A great starter set for new homeowners, recent college grads or if you just want the essentials. The Four Star knives are nice and lightweight, great for anyone who doesn’t want something that can be tiring in hand. The Chef is a great knife to use for chopping and slicing vegetables, meat, fruit. The paring knife is great for slicing and peeling fruits and vegetables, and the serrated utility is great for slicing citrus, tomatoes, bread and meats like sausage. With the Four Star having a ice hardened forged steel, these knives will stay sharp much longer, won’t be prone to rusting, and will have lasting durability. A great set to build a knife collection or to have a couple key blades in your kitchen.
