Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Wusthof Classic 6-Piece Chef Knife Set
Customer Review: NICE SET OF KNIVES
Summary: 4 Stars
I normally do not like knife sets no matter the quality because you get stuck with a bunch of knives you simply do not need. As this set was given to me as a gift I am sort of stuck with it. I must say though that I have been quite happy with everything and really do not have that many complaints. I did find that the 8 inch bread knife was a bit sort for my particular taste; feeling as I do that these particular knives should be at least 10 inches long. I also immediately replaced the sharpening steel with a better grade ceramic one as they do such a better job.
These knives are without bulging bolsters which is good as they are a waste anyway and do nothing but interfere with the sharpening process. The balance is good and they came very sharp. They are rather easy to keep sharp. I did not like the visible tang that runs the length of the handle as that is just another bit of steel that has to we watched for rust and corrosion and is a bit of a gathering place for grunkies to breed.
The grip is comfortable and the knives to the job they are paid to do. The company certainly has a good reputation and these are certainly not bad knives per se....its just that had I purchased them I could not have purchased the entire set.
Overall I have to give this set four stars but please not that the removal of one star is more from personal preference than anything else. I think that most home cooks would delight in this set.
NOTE: They say these are "dishwasher-safe." No, no, no! NEVER EVER place your good cooking knives in the dishwasher nor should you was them in a sink with other utensils or dishes. This is a fast way to end up with dull blades. This is very, very bad and basically bad advice from the company here.
