Damascus Knife Set 7 Pcs with Wooden Handle, Damascus Steel Kitchen Knife Block Sets, Professional Chef's,Santoku,Universal， Fruit,Bread and Kitchen Scissors

This is a very good quality set of knives. I am what might be referred to as a 'home chef', which is to say I love cooking for my wife and myself but am in no way at all trained to cook - my main 'teacher' if you like has been for a long time Jamie Oliver but I follow other too if the recipe looks good. So, back to the Nanfang Brothers knife - they are excellent value for the price, six very useful size/type s of knives of this quality is, frankly, a bargain.Now to the detail; the two stars of this set are the chef's knife and the santoku knife. Both are are alone almost worth the asking price. The santoku knife in particular is far better than I expected. The patina is actually quite bright and shiny, something that doesn't seem to show in most images I've seen (see uploaded pics).These knives are, btw, sharp - really SHARP! How long the edge will retain this sharpness I cannot say as I have only had the set a short while. All I can say is they pass the 'tomato test' easily. Indeed the chef's knife almost falls through a tomato without attempting to cut, rather just a little slight movement to fire and aft is all that's needed.Regarding the off raised question, is it 'real Damascus steel' my short answer is, I don't know for sure. However, to my eyes it look like the real deal. Look closely at the pattern on the santoku knife, just below the 'm' in the printed word 'Damascus' and the layer lines follow precisely in the scooped out indentations (grantens I think they are called). This could of course be faked but strikes me as unlikely, you will have to make your own mind on this one. Honestly speaking for me it is a none-issue because these remain a superb set on chef's knives.Lastly, the wooden block. Mine is practically flawless, beautifully finished, and looks really good. It also keeps those incredibly sharp edges safely away from unsuspecting fingers, etc. All in all, so far, no hesitation in recommending this set. I have my last set for more than 10 years, these will probably last my lifetime and my children's!

This set was actually priced at £199 when I put it on my wish list. A couple of days later when I was ready to order I found it had been reduced to £170, so feel I got a bit of a bargain.This might still sound a lot for a set of knives, but after doing a bit of research I found similar sets on other sites were a lot more expensive...anything up to £500.Anyway, I got these to replace a cheap set of Taylor's Eye Witness knives that cost me around £40. After having them for a couple of years, 2 of them recently snapped where the blade joins the handle (no through-handle tang). All I was doing was cutting cheese...it wasn't even particularly hard cheese either!So I decided to invest in a proper quality knife set. I could have gone cheaper, but knowing a bit about metallurgy, I wanted a set with damascus blades. Not only do they look beautiful, but they are extremely strong.In a nutshell, they are heavier and far, far sharper than my old set - a combination that allows them to cut much cleaner and easier. Handles are also very comfortable. You can really see and feel the quality. Expect these will last me many years.

Presentation box meant something of excellence was within. Wooden block very well finished and a centre piece within anyone's kitchen. Add in the knives and whow. Knives are what is said within the description, beautifully constructed and razor sharp from top to bottom. As for their performance, they just slice through anything that is thrown at them. The scissors, cutting up meat is so simple. Wished we had bought these many years ago. Kudos gentlemen 😊👍

4 stars because they do go rusty if left in the dishwasher

I’ve been using these knives for a few weeks now and can say I’m more than happy with the build quality of them. They were delivered sharpened and without any faults. The wooden block is as expected but functions well for its purpose.

They’re high quality knives. Bought them for my partner, he loves them. Cut through really tough bits of meat with ease. They’re lovely to hold, the sharpener is really high quality and sharpens them well, not that they need it! Well worth the money!

Knifes look good but didn’t stay sharp long. Not the best. Bought better quality and sharper for a lot cheaper.

Although expensive, they are fantastic to use and extremely sharp. Quite comfortable and easy to hold, they make cutting, slicing and chopping really simple for non cooks like myself. They cannot be put in the dishwasher, but they should last a very long time being hand washed. Great quality.

Die Messer sind scharf und sehen sehr gut aus
