Tramontina 4 Piece Polywood Blunt Tip Steak Knife Set

Tramontina 4 Piece Polywood Blunt Tip Steak Knife SetI bought some of these for cheap from Lee Valley. They're well fitted together and very solid feeling, but they're not good steak knives. The knives are dull and since they are cheap stamped stainless steel, they cannot be sharpened. The amount of serration is very awkward, too little to work as a serrated knife, but no longer useful as a flat edged knife. They're also big maybe the right size for cutting porterhouses or a full rack of ribs, but too big otherwise.

They make decent utility knives, and that's what I use them for. I paid $1.25 each and use them for transplanting plants and cutting cardboard. This knife has the right amount of serration for those tasks.

For cheap steak knives, I'd suggest the 4 inch Forschner paring knives. They don't look as good but they stay very sharp for years and cuts effortless through any kind of meat.
