I love these. I purchased a set about five years ago. The still look brand new. But my hands have progressed with arthritis. I have been looking for a new set for about a year. I was so absolutely delighted when I saw them appear on your web sight. The knives are beautiful, the right weight and grip for my hands, they are sharp and cut perfectly. I also love that each knife has its own sheath to protect us from unwanted scratches. Thank you for bringing the home to me!
