I love Chicago Cutlery's Landmark series.  The knives are extremely sharp, and rarely need sharpening.  I have an entire set of the wooden handled, original Chicago Cutlery knives, which were never even close to this sharp, even though I thought they were OK (I didn't know what I was missing)!  These are exceptional, as is the price for this kind of quality.  The black and silver look is elegant.  I own the 5-inch slicer, 8-inch slicer and chef's knife, and bought the larger knives because the 5-inch slicer had become my main utility knife that I used for almost everything unless it required a parer.  Highly recommended.
