These knives really lived up to my expectations. Great quality knife set for the home cook. Most sets I looked at only had 6 steak knives and a 5 1/2” Santoku knife. This set has 8 steak knives and a 7” Santoku. Super sharp right out of the box and very comfortable to use. Also love the look and quality of the knife block and that it has a couple extra slots. Would definitely recommend this set! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
