Title: Knives are fine for the occasional cook
Product review: The knives in this set are very nice looking, but are fairly mediocre in quality. They are fine for the person who doesn't need the greatest knives to get the job done or for someone who does as little cooking as possible. The wood block is of poor quality. I ordered 2 of these sets and sent them both back because of major flaws in the block. One had a very visible crack all the way up the back and the other was not put together well. Parts were not glued on straight and the black stain was missing in a few spots. The knives and block are made in China so I guess you get what you pay for. After sending this back I treated myself to a 10 piece set of Sabatier Grand Chef knives and also ordered the Sabatier Grand Chef steak knives. Sabatier also has some cheaper lines made in China, but due to my experience with the Farberware knives I opted for Sabatier's higher end line made in France.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
