Title: Great pots/pans, poor handles.
Review: I bought this set to replace a similar set that is over 15 years old and was abused by a former paramour. While they cook the same as the previous set, that is to say wonderfully, the new style handles are a serious shortcoming.The old handles were made out of rose wood and looked great and were well tapered and smooth. These new ones are a lighter wood which hurts the asthetics. In addition, they are rough to the touch and feel as if you might get a splinter from them. The finish, varnish or polyurethane seems to be missing in a few spots, and the grain of the wood is palpable.This set was about $250 for the 10 piece set and is a real bargain as the origional was over $300 16 years ago.If you are considering these, buy them and you should love the way they cook.
