Title: sharp knives and looks
Review: this set looks really nice on the countertop, my dad just leaves it out. the knives also have great shape and are extremely sharp. he was a professional chef for years and he loves them. but like other people, we had some issues with it at first...1. my dad needed extra help[rubber mallet] to open the slide when he first got it. he oiled it up and hasn't had to break out the hammer again.2. these knives are very light, especially for someone who is used to professionally weighted knives. so handling them was a bit different, but after a few days he said it felt nice to use them as there was very little effort involved.Overall this set is very nice for someone who cooks a lot, and has a problem taking care of their knives[his wifey throws 'em all in a drawer, tsk-tsk] if you're giving this as a gift i would recommend opening the box and oiling the slide before giving the gift, they'll appreciate it.
