I absolutely love this flatware!  It is perfect for everyday use and nice enough for use when we set a table for guests.  Other reviews commented on the weight of the pieces - I find them to be the ideal weight.  They are not too heavy yet they feel weighty enough to not be cheap.  The pattern is subtle enough to not interfere with grip yet make a nice statement.  The knives have a nice serrated edge which is just enough to cut a tender piece of meat or crisp vegetable.
