 Awesome Knives September 2, 2010
Chris
Beautiful knife set, cuts through anything I can throw at it like a charm. I also put one knife in the dishwasher without thinking about, it survived but I would not recommend doing so on a regular basis (came out with water marks on it).
Only downfall is that three pieces of the knife set are not knives (the block, scissors & sharpener) so you may need to go out and get another knife or two to really complete the set (I personally bought a 7" Santoku ($50 on Amazon)) to really round out the set.

I own Wusthof knives... and these are the inferior variety. They don't have the weight or heft and they just don't feel right. If you want a set of knives that are better than nothing, get these. But if you really like using great kitchen knives, these don't do it.
 Not what I expected for a set Regularly Priced at $488.00 July 22, 2010

I purchased these knifes hoping for top quality but was greatly disappointed. I knew they were "laser cut" but what I didn't realize is that they felt in my hand just like my "Walmart Basic Essentials" knives that I used back in college. Overall, the blades are flimsy, but I will hand it to Wüsthof for the sharpness. They were really really sharp. The block is about average construction, nothing special. What made me laugh most is the logo stickers placed on every knife look like you are buying a knockoff product. Overall a disappointment especially for the price.
As for a start rating, I'll bump it up to two stars because of the sharpness, but no higher as they left too much to be desired. I ended up returning them and springing for the $10 cheaper Henckles set from Costco.
love these knifes! Easy to use and sharp as japanese sword July 18, 2010

When my husband and I were looking for a set of good-quality knifes (not exceeding $200 price range), we went to a department store and looked at many different sets. After doing the test and a little bit of research on other customers experience, we decided on Wusthof. The handles are comfortable and knifes are really-really sharp - that's about all we need from knifes.
Great Knives April 6, 2010

It has been a long time since I had a set of good, sharp knives. After reading reviews around the net I decided to try the Wusthof and am very impressed. These feel well balanced in my hand and the grip works well for me. I must say that it took a bit of getting used to having a knife this sharp again and they make me want to go out and cook more. Bottom line, a great set of knives at a very good price.
