I got this set to replace one I have had for 20 years. Oh my goodness knives have come a long way! I absolutely love this set sitting on my kitchen counter.  It has any knife you may need in it. I forgot how knives were supposed to cut so easily.  Be careful because they are super sharp out of the box. I love the sharpener being built into the set and not having to use the sword sharpener anymore. I have received so many compliments on this. It's not only a looker, but extremely nice knives.  I highly recommend this set for anyone!
