Received the set as a present, probably a good idea to wash anything from the store before use... I did, and now the handles are ruined. Hopefully I can return them and exchange for same or similar set. DO NOT WASH IN DASHWASHER, as another review said, hot dry and hard water are an awful combo. There is no warning of this on the box, and no warning of the fight you'll have with your wife after you're thoughtfulness and consideration to wash the knives turns to a nightmare...
The knifes feel great for balance, handle weight = blade weight so they handle freely. We'll probably return them and repurchase the same set, so that says a lot. Steak knifes look like they'll be a pain to clean and will probably shred your sponge. Sorry this is so scatter brained, that's me, enjoy the knives!

Hi, At first this set seemed better than competition.
Unfortunately I was first disappointed to note that not the entire set was made of "German Steel", the steaks knife are made of "Asian Steel".
Second disappointment, after 1 week, both a steak knife and the bone parer knife showed a stain of rust.
So I returned this and will try to find something like the old knifes I have for over 30 years and never showed a rust stain. I will try to stay away from "Made in China German Steel". Need to read the fine print.

It seems like we have bought new knives every few years for one reason or another, but two years ago, I decided I was going to buy a nice set for my wife for Christmas. I wanted the "lifetime purchase" this time. We don't do a lot of cooking, the knives are mostly for the steaks and bread. At the store, I really liked these knives... they are simple yet a touch of elegance. They have a very nice heft to them, and they are balanced very well, and they fit the hand well. The scissors get used for all kinds of things, and they are nice; the bread knive is good. The larger butcher style knives are simply dull, and feel more dangerous than confidence inspiring. But all that is fine for us... its just the steak knives that really give me pause, but that is by far what we use the most. The problem is that the serrated design is very fine, and from the very first cut, the teeth "load up". By this I mean that the steak ends up filling all the gaps in the serrations and when the knife comes out you can barely tell it is a serrated knife anymore. You can keep cutting, and they will work, but the effort goes up and the mess of meat that is stuck to the knife after every cut is frustrating. There's nothing you can really do about it, just keep cutting and put it in the dishwasher, or use a napkin to carefully pull the remnants out. I've never had a knife do this before... I've had duller knives for sure, but its almost like I'd rather have a clean knife that is less sharp than a sharp one that loads up and acts dull.
Semi-related, I bought the full Calphalon pots and pans set at the same time for all the same in-store feelings. Now, after a couple of years use, the frying pans have been passed to the trash can... the non-stick coating just started peeling / flaking off, and the thought of that in the food is horrible (read up on it... not good to eat teflon). Its like they got so close on both products, but has left me assured I won't buy either again.

Love these knives! I have bought them for a few family memebers and everyone loves them!

I looked long and hard for a good set of reasonably priced knives and settled on this set. Although I love the weight and the professional quality of the set I am very disappointed with the way they rust if washed in the dishwasher - especially if you have a very hot dry cycle. Because family members sometimes forget to wash them by hand I have to clean them with CLR to get the rust stains off. Be aware that if you have hard water the handles will whiten over time unless washed by hand. As previously stated they do have to be sharpened frequently but it takes only a few seconds and the sharpener comes with the set.
