Fiesta Tangerine 6-Piece Steak Knife with In-Draw Tray

Fiesta Tangerine 6-Piece Steak Knife with In-Draw TrayThese steak knives are sharp and feel great in the hand. I was hesitant to order the "tangerine" color at first, but I've come to really like the color once these came in.

Our kitchen tools, utensils, and pans are all Rachel Ray orange cookware, so these knives were wonderful to have. We've used them only once so far, but they slice steak very nicely and are easy to hold with the soft grips.

I bought a set for myself, and recently bought another set for my mom. We love them! They stay sharp, and look sleek in their holder. Comfortable grips too.

Bakertowne Thick & Thin Cheese Slicer

Bakertowne Thick & Thin Cheese SlicerI LOVE this item. It makes perfect, uniform cheese slices something I have never been able to accomplish with a knife, cheese plane, or wire cutter attached to a board. I bought one at my local Kitchen Outlet over a decade ago and fell in love. The only downside is that it's a little flimsy with a life expectancy of about one year. It's so inexpensive that I didn't mind buying a new one once a year. But then my local kitchen outlet stopped carrying it.

I bought a similar item from a different manufacturer that cost about twice as much and it broke while I was cutting my first slice of cheese! Don't settle for anything less than the original Thick & Thin Cheese Slicer! It's the best :)

This will be my annual birthday present to myself. I am so happy to find this product again.

Small, lightweight and inexpensive. Works perfectly. If a string should break at some point in the future I'll just buy another one. Has been used on soft, medium and hard cheeses with no problems so far. Does not suffer from "adjustment slip" (becaue it is not adjustable) but you are given the choice between thick and thin. Would highly reccommend. I bought a very nice professional slicer but this is the one I use most often!

This product delivers exactly what it says. Thick and thin slices of your cheese. And if someday it breaks, who cares? At this cheap price you can afford to buy replacements!

This was a great little cheese slicer until it snapped in two during normal use. Spend a little more and get something that's better quality-the plastic is pretty thin.

Want Bakertowne Thick & Thin Cheese Slicer Discount?

We're on our third slicer, as the wire stretches. Each one lasts about 6 months, but I love them and am back for more. Stand a 2lb loaf of Oregon cheese on end and slice horizontally, supporting the wire as you bring it from the far side of the cheese toward you. It makes quick work of a tricky job, allowing you to buy better quality cheese at a lower price than pre-sliced cheeses.

Core Bamboo SDC430 Bamboo Chef's Slicer Knife

Core Bamboo SDC430 Bamboo Chef's Slicer KnifeI couldn't resist trying this out as I love fine cutlery as well as all things bamboo. The construction and ergonomics are surprisingly good. The handle is thick enough to hold nicely. Using my regular steel knife sharpener--the old fashioned kind--I can get a fine edge on it almost as good as steel (and with no saw dust!), but then I do treat it pretty gently. Don't expect this to replace a steel knife, but there are good uses for it. It is as much a conversation piece for me as it is a kitchen tool. I never had problems with cut lettuce turning brown but it was a good excuse to buy this fun but functional toy. Now I can cut cake without scratching the pan.

Knife was not sharp at all... Fine for cutting soft cheese, tomatoes, etc. DON'T try to cut an apple with it! Very disappointed. Glad we only bought one.

Felt uncomfortable cutting with this. Seemed flimsy and cutting meat was not an option. Maybe I just am not use to this style of knife!

So dull doesn't really cut. Neat concept and something to talk to guests about, but not functional. I ordered the bread slicer with a serrated edge and it works very well for now. Not sure how to sharpen if it dulls.

Trudeau Stainless Steel Grapefruit 5-Piece Set, Yellow

Trudeau Stainless Steel Grapefruit 5-Piece Set, YellowThe knife is terrific. One end has two parallel blades, serrated and sharp, with a small gap in between. You position this over a radial membrane to quickly and easily separate the grapefruit from both sides of the membrane. After zipping down each membrane, you can efficiently slide the knife's curved other end around the circumference of the grapefruit. Voila!

The spoons are nothing special. They're OK, but don't win any style points.

This would earn five stars if the spoons were nicer than diner-quality.

Grapefruit knives and spoons are very difficult to find. Amazon helped me find them, and the company they suggested fulfilled the order just as they said they would. The spoons and knife are of good quality, and the knife especially makes grapefruit easier to cut and eat. I would recommend this set for purchase. It is a good value for the money.

Buy Trudeau Stainless Steel Grapefruit 5-Piece Set, Yellow Now

Sharp utensils, well balanced. I really enjoyed the length of the spoons. Will eat more grapefruits from now. Like the yellow color. Amazon has many choices for battle with grapefruits. Bought two, one for Chicago, the other for Sunny Isles Beach in Florida. Niam, niam, niam, goooood.

Read Best Reviews of Trudeau Stainless Steel Grapefruit 5-Piece Set, Yellow Here

This set was made poorly. The spoons and the knife have a raw metal edge that has not been finished, was made cheaply and poorly. We could not use the spoons as they gave a strong metallic taste in your mouth. At first I thought the design of the knife was smart, but found that although the curved side of the knife works well for cutting around the edge of the grapefruit, the straight side of the knife, meant for cutting sections, is actually a double knife and it ends up massacring the grapefruit. I actually cut off one of the double knives and now it works ok.

we had to throw out the spoons, the knife also has a raw metal edge that catches and does not cut cleanly or smoothly. Not worth the purchase!

Want Trudeau Stainless Steel Grapefruit 5-Piece Set, Yellow Discount?

The spoons work very well and are solid. The knife is great but the spoons can be used well even without the knife.

Arcos Maitre 7-Inch Granton Edge Santoku Knife

Arcos Maitre 7-Inch Granton Edge Santoku KnifeReally good product from a good company. It's not heavy, actually even lighter than I expected. The grip is good and comfortable even for people with big palms like myself.

It's not forged so it's probably not the best chef's knife you can find but it's very decent for the price and fun to use.

One thing I noticed and was weird but honestly I don't know if it's me or it should be like that the grooves on the knife are on the left face of the blade and if you're right handed then you should hold whatever you chop with your left hand. since the grooves are on the left face then the "non sticking" benefit happens in the side you don't need it... Again, I don't know if it's a problem or not but I got used to it and I enjoy working with it.

Would definitely recommend it to friends and family.

Black Ornate Handles 5 piece place setting cutlery set, French design

Black Ornate Handles 5 piece place setting cutlery set, French designWe bought this set in Ivory.

This set is the biggest rip off I've every experienced when dealing with a company. I'm out nearly $400 dollars. Just two people using the set for approximately one year. A fine set if you like throwing away your money.

My wife and I spent over $300 on a full set of the Ivory Colored set. They do look and feel great, but unfortunately they will no hold up to very light everday usage. Even the serving pieces will crack.

We now have 9 pieces that have cracked outsides after fairly light usage. I contacted customer service and this is the response I received:

"Hi Andrew,

I can understand your frustration, but at this time there is nothing we can do. The set you purchased is not a Laguiole set so it is comparing apples to oranges in terms of the pricing and quality of what you had purchased.

Regards,

Cheryl

Customer Service Manager"

My response is actually it is not Apples to Oranges, I paid almost $400, so how exactly is that nothing. BTW, thanks for nothing, YOU'VE LOST A CUSTOMER FOR LIFE. I'd even be surprised if you leave my very negative experience and review on your site, but it shall remain on Amazon since you have no control over here!

---------

I also wanted to add, that I will soon be posting pictures of the 9 items that have already cracked. In addition to Cracking, some of the items are showing rust and on one the metal ornament on the handle fell off.

These are not full tang, meaning they metal from the utensil stops as the plastic part. This means that in addition, to cracking and rusting; you can expect all your utensils to eventually start wobbling.

I had different expectations than the other reviewer. I bought a set of 12 place settings and serving pieces two years ago but I use them only occasionally. These pieces look gorgeous on the table and feel sturdy in the hand. The knives are nice and sharp and cut meat easily. For this reason I'm back to buy more place settings for a buffet.

Because of the wear and tear that daily use wreaks on tableware, I choose not to use resin as my everyday set. We tried it years ago with a DuBost set from Sur La Table with mixed results.

The Comptoire set doesn't have a full tang and probably will eventually wobble. For this reason I hand wash them we have other resin Laguiole cutlery and have noticed that over the years even they don't stand up to the dishwasher for a sustained period of time. We've had not cracking, chipping or metal erosion at this point. They've worked well for us.

Victorinox Cutlery 9-Inch Wavy Edge Bread Knife, Black Polypropylene Handle

Victorinox Cutlery 9-Inch Wavy Edge Bread Knife, Black Polypropylene HandleBefore I bought, I read a lot of Amazon reviews on the 10.25 inch Victorinox 47547. I have an old, 8" Chicago Cutlery bread knife that is kinda dull. I wanted a new bread knife, and I thought I wanted a longer blade. Two things in those otherwise great reviews caught my attention: the blade "was not too rigid," and it "was sharpened on only one side." (The reviewers said the knife being sharpened on only one side would cause the blade to drift offline during a cut--and I thought I was a perfectionist!). This "offline" complaint drove me to seriously consider the Wustoff (the $126 model--so I wouldn't have to put up with those aggravating offline cuts). But before I spent that much money, I went to see one at a local store. Lo and behold, the Wustoff blade--the $126 one--is sharpened on only one side! (My guess is, all wavy-edge, serrated knife blades are sharpened this way... so much for perfect cuts.) Once I found out about one-sided sharpening on all the blades I was considering, the $26 Victorinox models were looking very good. Because I've noticed that my knuckles get in the way when I slice, I ended up getting the Victorinox 9-Inch Wavy Edge Bread Knife, with the offset handle. Its blade is plenty thick and stiff, and very sharp. I now enjoy slicing bread without having to manipulate a straight knife because of my knuckles. And, at this price, I can afford to buy a new knife every time one gets dull. PS: My freehand, thin bread slices are an even thickness from top-to-bottom and side-to-side.

Six Months Later: for the first time I used the knife on something other than bread, a raw potato. Lo and behold, the blade does drift offline as you cut, it pushes away from the sharpened side. Can't imagine where this is a big deal (I didn't really notice it slicing bread), and it seems to be able to be controlled if you try.

It's the best I've ever owned. The Z shape helps keeping your knucles off of the cutting board and the blade can handle any job with maestry!

This knife cuts like its more famous sibling, the R H. Forschner by Victorinox 10-1/4-Inch Curved Blade Bread Knife. I happen to like how the other performs, so I later bought this offset, slightly shorter bread knife and brought it to my workplace for cutting sandwiches and bread. The blade obviously does not have the heft of (way) more expensive bread knives, and it can flex a bit, but its performance is definitely a tremendous step up from the similarly priced one that my coworkers and I had been using previously at work.

I buy a lot of freshly baked bread and find that having a good bread knife is a must. For me this knife has the trifecta: It is well balanced, has a comfortable grip, and slices effortlessly. I also really like the raised handle as it makes it easier for me to cut slices of bread with an even thickness. Victorinox has a reputation for making high quality knives at a good price and this offering does not disappoint.

Ginsu Hanaita Damascus 33 Layer VG-1 Core Stainless Steel 9-Piece Cutlery Set with Cryogenic Edge R

Ginsu Hanaita Damascus 33 Layer VG-1 Core Stainless Steel 9-Piece Cutlery Set with Cryogenic Edge Retention 5909I almost didn't buy this knife set because the only other review was so bad. I'm glad I didn't listen. I don't know what knives that person received, but it definitely wasn't the Ginsu Hanaita series.

These knives are solid, sturdy, sharp and durable. They are most definitely genuine damascus steel. Mass produced, machine made damascus....yes. But still very good steel. For this price I wasn't expecting hand forged knives. I paid half of what I would have paid for a six piece set of Shun knives and feel like I got an excellent value. Much better than the comparable Calphalon damascus knives.

I bought these thinking I was getting a high quality product.. These knives are worthless and dull after just a few uses. I followed their directions on how to properly handle and use and it matters none. The blades themselves are not made from Damascus, and the steak knives (i bought the 13 peice set) are so cheap they bend when cutting. I will donate these POS just to try and get some of my money back. Went back to using my 15 year old chicago cutlery knives that are much nicer even after 15 years of use. Ginsu you should be ashamed of yourselves for putting out such a shotty product for the price. I wouldnt pay 100 for the set.

For a Le Creuset-branded item, the price for this bowl was good.

I've used this bowl for a few purposes since receiving it. It's heavy, of course, and solid. No flaws that I can see. The ribs on the outside are handy for gripping /carrying. Not much else to say, really. I like it a lot.

Sabatier 4 Inch Forged Carbon Steel Paring Knife Made in France

Sabatier 4 Inch Forged Carbon Steel Paring Knife Made in FranceFirst let me say the price of $29.99 was the best I found and these were shipped fast. (The name Sabatier is not protected by patent. Sabatier knives are made by a number of companies including China and really the 4 Star Elephant brand are the nearest in quality to these K Sabatier knives). I bought a set of 4-6-8-and 10 inch. I liked these well enough to buy my daughter a set. They do have a slight curve to the edge so you can dice or slice with them. These knives have a RC of 54-56 and while may be considered a soft steel it's also easier to sharpen, plus holds an edge pretty well. These are carbon steel (not stainless) and will develop a patina or will also rust If not hand washed and dried, then vegetable oil applied. Truthfully I believe any good knife should be hand washed, even stainless can rust and handles crack. I prefer carbon steel knives for kitchen work . Now I'm 69 years old and own 200 plus knives (stainless and carbon steel) for hunting and kitchen work (some hand and custom made), plus own a number of sharpening systems. Many stainless knives sold today are junk (cheap ones won't hold or take an edge) and good stainless knives will be harder to sharpen due to the alloys used. I'm not a novice when it comes to knives. I'm very satisfied with this brand of Sabatier, have found they do take a good edge and hold it well. I also have three 4 star Elephant Brand Sabatiers, two of steel forged in the 1930's (sold as historic knives) and one of new forged steel. The two historic older forged will match these in edge holding, but the modern one doesn't match them. I really didn't expect that and I know a lot of people like the Elephant Brand, so many will disagree. (Both brands in my view are better than the German Knives, yet generally cheaper in price) Fit and finish on these are good, did notice one had slight grind marks on the top edge, but not bad. Most wouldn't even notice it. But one of my Elephant Brand historic knives did too. That doesn't effect use though. The blades are thinner than some Chef Knives, they are lighter than many, well balanced, but for most of us in home kitchen use, these are great. Handles on the smaller knives are larger than most making them easy to use too. The only kitchen knives I have and rate better are 40+ year old Carbon Steel American made, Wear-Ever and some Clyde Knives. I don't believe anyone has ever matched those in quality, nor do they now. This review is just my opinion and some will disagree and that's OK and why we have many knife companies. Hope this review helps someone and I tried to be very honest.

I have a fondness for old carbon steel knives, and was intrigued when I saw these K Sabatiers listed as such a great price. Based on research, and on the reviews on the 10-inch version of this same knife, I bought a 4-inch, 6-inch, and 8-inch version. I am VERY pleased with these knives, and will probably go ahead and order a 10-inch as well. They were fairly sharp upon arrival, but a quick trip to my professional knife man for a pre-use touchup turned them into razors. Care must be taken, remember, to wipe these occasionally during use, to wash and dry immediately, and even wipe with a bit of oil, as they WILL rust and discolor.

If you like carbon steel knives, trust these. These are the real K Sabatier. You won't be disappointed.

I needed to replace my Sabatier 4" paring knife because, unfortunately, it fell out of the moving box and was run over by the moving van. Searched Amazon.com. Came across many Sabatier-type knives. Decided to take a chance on the 4" paring knife from China Fair, Inc because their description seemed to be honest. Besides, I fully intended to send it back if I were disappointed because $40 is a lot of money for a knife that small.

Was extremely pleased. That little knife met all of my expectations, right out of the box. It would slice a hand-held piece of typing paper into shreds, just like the proverbial hot knife through butter.

I have just ordered a 6" chef's knife from China Fair, Inc. Incidentally, in subsequent e-mails with high-level staff, I learned that China does not come from the word `China'. It comes from the word `china', i.e. dishes. They are a family-owned business who have been purveyors of fine kitchen `equipment' for 47 years.

This is a very nice knife at a good price. It is super sharp because of the material: carbon steel.The disadvantage is that it SHOULD NOT GO IN THE DISHWASHER. The sheller states that, and I can testify to that, since I ignored his advice. It will discolor in the dishwasher, but it stays sharp.

American Metalcraft 18" Two Handled Pizza Knife (12-0471) Category: Pizza Cutters and Utensils

American Metalcraft 18' Two Handled Pizza Knife Category: Pizza Cutters and UtensilsWOW! This knife is a monster comparable to a machete! I had to hang it on the inside of a large cabinet as it will not fit anywhere else. This is comparable to the knife at my local pizza joint. It works just as well and as fast. Totally a top choice in this price range, don't be scared off by the plastic handles, they are of pretty good quality. The hole at the top is perfect to hang it. My dogs barked at it when I picked it up, ha ha, probably a good thing on scary movie nite! I've included some photo's with different pizza pans for comparison as well as to show it will only work on a flat surface when cutting. The blade is about 1/8" thick & SHARP, most pizza cutters say their sharp only to arrive very dull. This one is sharp right out of the very nicely & professional packed box. Looked like a large picture frame box!! I love my pizza's and hate putting in all the work only to have a cheap cutter rip off all my toppingsno more! Problem solved, you'll really like this cutter. It took me 5 different knives to get to this one, and one rocker cutter. I do not like the rocker cutters myself, I find it too hard to cut same size pieces accurately, and it was time consuming. I want to cut it fast & enjoy. The overall measurement is 23 1/4" from tip of blade to end of handle!

Buon appetito!

What a quality item this is! What I like about it is that you can make a pizza on a pizza stone, cut it right on the stone, and have the pieces be as small or as large as you want. The advantage is that you can cut the pieces much smaller than usual with the greatest ease and thus pretend that you are not eating as much as you usually would. It also works with pizza shop pizzas to make the slices much smaller. This would make the best father's day gift, combined with an Emile Henry pizza stone. Or THE wedding gift. I just came back to order some for gifts, since at one point they were down to just one when we originally bought ours. We have used it for a long time now and it seems as sharp as ever.

Solid feeling handles, sharp blade that cuts easily and cleans up just as easily. What's not to love? The hole at the end of the blade is a nice touch. I have it hanging on the rack with my cooking pans. Both of my sisters now want one of their own.

We all love how you can cut straight down through with little to no effort. The toppings all stay where they're supposed to instead of getting shoved to one side in front of even the large pizza wheels. It's also much easier to get accurate cuts than with a pizza wheel. No more having several large pieces and several much smaller ones.

This cutter should last me the rest of my life. I used to buy a new pizza wheel every couple years because they would dull and/or the rivet and hole would get worn out and the wheel would get sloppy. If this ever gets dull, I can just run it through my knife sharpener.

These knives will not fit in a standard knife block that has the steak knife inserts at the bottom. Unfortunately I had to return them and the refund process was smooth.

I received this knife as a gift a couple of months ago and it has become my new go to knife for just about everything. About once a week I cut up whole chickens to BBQ. This knife is perfect for that task. I have an old set of Chicago Cutlery that I keep in good condition but nothing in that set compare with this Mercer. Maybe because its newer and the technology is now more advanced than the older CC knives but this Mercer has a much better feel and it appears to keep a sharper edge. Looking forward to buying a couple more Mercer pieces that will complement this 7 inch.

Unfortunately, after the first dishwash, the plastic legs came off, but as they were mostly unnecessary, I didn't care. Gourmet cooks will probably require a higher standard (and price), but for the average household, several of these boards are perfect.

These acrylic boards are superior to other types of cutting boards I have tried. They do not stain, do not retain odors, are effortless to clean and dry, and storage is also easy. I have three different sizes (this is the one I use the most). I also have a larger size for dinner preparation for larger groups, and a small-sized one that I can hang on my kitchen utility storage rack. Works great for cutting cheese, chopping veggies (especially onions). I would like to see these come with different designs available to help coordinate with other kitchen decorations, or when giving as a gift. I am thinking of looking for some waterproof window decals to stick on the underside of the board, such as flowers, garden vegetables or cute little animals. I always wash my boards by hand -I do not use a dishwasher nor do I let them soak in the dishwater.

I think these are more sanitary than the wooden ones and they are easy to clean by putting them in the dishwasher. It's a good size. I have about 5 of them and I wash them in dishwasher after each use. They scratch eventually, but not much. Those little feet always fall off, so I don't even miss them.

I mainly bought this because it is clear and I can leave it out on the counter without it appearing in the way in the kitchen. As others have mentioned, on of the "legs" did come off after a couple of weeks but I put it back on (without any additional adhesive) and it hasn't come off again several weeks later. I'm not an expert on knives but from what I've read, this is not the best surface to have to maintain a nice edge.

Bottom line: If you have a nice knife collection and need something to preserve them, stay away from this and any cutting board like it. If you don't care about your cutlery and just need something cheap to cut up veggies on, this may be the item for you.

I have a bad habit of cutting right on my counter because I'm too lazy to get out a cutting board to slice something small and quick. I stayed at all suites hotel recently where they had one of these on the counter. It blended right into the counter and was there when I needed it. Right after i got home, I searched and found this one. Now it has a permanent home right on my counter and gets used almost everyday.

Tramontina Commercial Foodservice Quality 4" Paring Knives - 2 Knife Set.

Tramontina Commercial Foodservice Quality 4' Paring Knives - 2 Knife Set.Everything is great with these knives, but I like a slightly larger knife for a paring knife. Otherwise the knife cuts well and goes into the dishwasher which was important to me.

This style is known as a HOTEL PARER.

The characteristics of that style are the large simple handle and the spear point blade.

Tramontina knives are known in the industry for excellent quality. Contrary to the only other review,

the 4" blade is, in fact, about the longest blade commonly used on a knife called a "paring knife".

It's a good size for its purpose, but the more common 3 1/4" blade is certainly more popular, but not better.

That is a matter of preference.

The knives are sharp from the factory, which is not always the case with many brands. They are also thin blades which are very easy to re-sharpen using a honing stone.

A great buy!
