Title: Good value
Review: This is a decent set of knives at a good price. All these knives feel properly balanced in the hand. After six months of use, there are no rust spots or discolorations. I typically air dry the smaller knives, and hand dry the long ones, always hand washing.Some of the knives were not quite as sharp as could be, but it was not hard to sharpen them. Note that the 8" sharpener that comes in the set is not very good quality, and my 10" sharpener will not fit in this block. The sharpener slot will also accomodate a knife with about a 1" blade.The steak knives with black handles look great at the table. The Precision tomato knife (size of steak knife) is the perfect size for the 14th slot, if still available.This set is a good value at the clearance price. The steak knives alone, or the block alone, are worth the price. Don't expect to get a top of the line professional set at this price, and you will not be disappointed.
