Oneida Michelangelo 2-Piece Cake Server Flatware Set

Oneida Michelangelo 2-Piece Cake Server Flatware SetMy favorite silverware pattern, used lots of times at family get togethers and at a wedding. I love everything about this servers.

Good item,well priced, replaces a set that I had for years but lost in a move. Functional and attractive. Looks pretty on the dessert table. Amazon had a huge selection of sets but I found this one to be closest in appearance to the one that I lost. All in all I'm pleased with the product.

This was a wonderful purchase for us; although we have the pattern in 12 settings, and some of the serviing pieces, had not ever gotten the cake server set. So glad you had it available............and at a very good price.

These cake servers are absolutely stunning in person.

They meet my visual expectations, I can not write on the longevity or use of them as we wont be using them till early next year.

They do have some weight to them and feel very strong not flimsy at all.

We have lots of weddings here at my little bed and breakfast. I finally decided to get this set to match the cake forks :) and am so pleased that I did. It really completes the look. These are quality pieces, at a fair price, well-packaged and promptly shipped. The size and weight are even nicer than I expected. I'm happy to have them.

Chroma KTB1 Kasumi 7-3/4-Inch Titanium-Coated Chef's Knife

Chroma KTB1 Kasumi 7-3/4-Inch Titanium-Coated Chef's KnifeMy husband actually bought me a smaller Kasumi knife as a Christmas gift. It is only about 5" but it has a blade shape of a chef's knife, so a review under this knife seems to be the best fit. And I felt the need to review it since I am so attached--one could even say loyal to it. First of all, I had no idea that these Kasumi knives were so expensive. So I had no bias. We have some decent heavy German (Wusthof) knives that are good quality, so I didn't even understand why my husband bought me a knife. I didn't use it much at first, but slowly over time I started reaching for it. Eventually I noticed it was the only one I reached for. I asked myself why and realized it is because it is strong and sharp, but most of all it is LIGHT and fits my hand so comfortably. I would however like a bigger knife as well, and I'm telling you I am eyeing this one. I wish it weren't so expensive or I would have bought it already!

Pretty and functional. Great knife, though did not come as sharp as I was lead to believe.

Yaxell Ran Chef's Knife

Yaxell Ran 6-1/2-Inch Santoku Knife, 1-CountCustomer review from the Amazon Vine Program First off, I REALLY like this knife. It is very comfortable to use, and cuts better than any other knife in my collection. As I used it for cutting apples, I kept switching back and forth between this knife and another, and this knife clearly cuts better than the other. It has served me well now for cutting fruits, vegetables, and for trimming excess fat from steaks. However, there are some things you should know:

1) When you buy a knife, remember that it eventually will need to be sharpened. When it is time to sharpen THIS knife, I won't be able to use my standard knife sharpener because the angle of the blade on this knife (and Santoku knives in general) is narrower than on German/Western style knives. Yaxell sells their own sharpener, but there are other inexpensive, well rated sharpeners available on Amazon that are designed for this knife. If you don't have ANY sharpener yet, you might consider one that can handle both Westernand Santoku-style blades.

2) The small size of this blade means it is definitely NOT a chef's knife. This has a 5-inch blade, whereas a chef's knife will generally be in the 8to 10-inch range. I was trying to use this knife for chopping Romaine lettuce for a salad, and had to switch to my longer chef's knife instead. I use this smaller knife a lot when I am doing smaller more precise cutting, but this is not a substitute for a chef's knife.

3) The manufacturer recommends that you NOT use this knife for cutting through/around bones. So, use something else if you are doing something along the lines of carving a chicken.

4) This is a great knife, but there are some great alternatives that are much less expensive (some below $30). Do your research, read reviews (I'm a fan of Cook's Illustrated's equipment reviews), and decide for yourself whether the extra cost is worth it.

I am a chef and in my job I normally get through a lot of items... knives, but

this one is one of the best I ever tried... nothing to do with average but better

known brand like Global... This really makes your work easier!

Buy Yaxell Ran Chef's Knife Now

I got the Zen knife it's 37 layers; also a Yaxell knife (you can't find this model in the US only in Europe). I am writing a review as a higher model it can only be better (as I have an 8 inch Gou Yaxell chef's knife and it's amazing). It's the same size as this knife. I got it as a present. I was looking to buy the Shun knife and this one in every aspect, beat the hell out of it. It's more balanced and sharper I got it as a shushi knife, I cut raw fish as if it is butter. I'm writing a review as no one else wrote any reviews on these knives. This is the best knife for the money. It might be a bit expensive, but spend a bit more and it is worth every penny. In my line of work, as a chef, I used to work with a lot of knives from Victorinox, Global and even the Shun, this is the BEST knife that you could buy for yourself and it will last forever (with a bit of sharpening). If you buy this knife, please write a review so that others can learn about it and buy it as well. Enjoy your cutting!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program If you are not good with sharp objects, then stay away from this knife.

However, if you are a foodie/chef who really appreciates great tools, this is a wonderful knife. It has a great feel and balance and the knife Tang (the metal) extends all the way through the handle for extra strength. It makes top-of-the-line Henckels look like bargain basement dime-store knives.

The edge cuts smoothly through anything that you throw at it (though I have to admit that I didn't test it with the cliche "cutting through metal" stress tests. It is my favorite knife for cutting vegetables, de-boning a chicken or cutting beef into strips for stir-fry.

The price of the knife is incredible so it is not for the faint of heart or the budget minded cook. I don't know that I would spend the money for it myself... however, it is a pleasure to own and use so from that respect, if you are looking for a thoughtful and significant gift for the chef in your family, this knife makes a great addition to the collection.

this knife is just as advertised its amazing its razor sharp and cuts like nothing is even under it. I only had it for a day so far and i mean thats a restaurant day and it was still sharp as could be...the only thing that scares me about this knife is how light it is, like super super light, if your not careful i feel like breaking the blade could easily happen, just have to know your going to have to baby it and if your only using it at home you really have no worries then...(Ps avoid anything with bones or relatively hard just IMO)

Shun Pro 10-5/8-Inch Yanagiba Knife

Shun Pro 10-5/8-Inch Yanagiba KnifeWithout being a purist, (I'm from Wisconsin, after all), this is a very nice sashimi knife, considering the price. Those of you who work at sushi bars will scoff, but this isn't a $600 hocho either, and not all of us wish to spend so much. No saya came with my knife.

After many sharpenings, the back must be leveled, very much like a good Japanese chisel, as the hollowed part comes closer to the edge, but this is true of all knives of this type.

Money well burned, if you cut a lot of fish into tiny bits. It is good for many other things, and gets a lot of use in my house.

BTW if you are just fooling around or learning, get one of the $30 knives they are plenty good, and, if you find that you don't like using this type, you haven't blown a bunch of cash that you could have spent on ahi or mahimahi . . .

I bought this to use at work; I couldn't be happier with it. It's a beautiful knife, excellent for skinning & portioning fish. We get large Mahi-Mahi halves w/ the skin on in the kitchen I work in, & I bought this knife mainly to use on those. It's perfect for the job. A flawless edge and needle-sharp, perfect tip make what was a somewhat cumbersome task a breeze. I have several knifes from various well-known "upscale" companies; this one ranks at the top of the list. Beautiful to look at, perfectly weighted, precision edge everything one could want in a knife. I hesitated at the price, but after using this knife for a couple of weeks, it's obvious that it was a worthwhile investment. With proper care, I'm sure it will stand up to many, many years of professional use. In a home kitchen, I'd wager it would last a lifetime.

I recently purchased the shun pro knife. The steel is of the highest quality,and the weight is perfectly balanced. The knife blade and handle are designed for right handed users. The knife arrived razor sharp and has performed flawlessly. The knife is so well designed that I can cut paper thin sashimi, and make sushi the way it is meant to be, one bite.

I bought this to use at work and cut my finger on the very first day. The cutting edge is razor sharp! But if using it with care, this is a great knife to slice a lot of fish precisely. This knife has met my needs very well.

I ordered three wine plates. They were colorful, and nice for the price I paid.

Wusthof Culinar 6-Inch Sandwich Knife

Wusthof Culinar 6-Inch Sandwich KnifeSome people might note that you don't really need this particular size and shape knife. If you have an 8" chef's knife, a paring knife, maybe a long carver and a bread knife, you can pretty much do anything. However, to my mind, that is irrelevant to judging the quality of the tool. The Culinar knives are beautiful, superbly balanced, and, in my experience, take a great edge.

This knife is perfect for making a sandwich, carving a modest sized roast, doing many of the things a boning knife would do. Slice a tomato? Done. Cut raw meat for serving size, or for a recipe? No problem. And, with the nearly seamless stainless handle, it's easy to clean to prevent contamination.

I like this knife. I don't use it as often as my chef's knives, or my paring knife, but it is a useful tool, and I'm glad it's in my collection. Additionally, I have read some reviews from people who complained that they had Wusthof knives that were dull, didn't sharpen, or wouldn't hold and edge. This amazes me, and is not at all my experience with their fine products.

The Perfect Slice Pie Cake Slicer As seen on TV 3 Piece Set

The Perfect Slice Pie Cake Slicer As seen on TV 3 Piece SetI bake a lot of cheese cakes and this product is great for cutting them. Also good for pies. Makes the presentation beautiful.

If you have a cake on a perfectly flat surface, it works(4 stars). If your cake plate has a lip or curves up as so many do, the Perfect Slices hits the raised portion and can't cut all the way through. So, totally forget pie it can only make a mark on the top to use as a guide for your KNIFE because the PIE DISH is in the WAY! You can barely cut the edge of the crust with this thing let alone all the way through. Calling this a pie cutter is false advertising. Even if you get the pie out of the dish whole (with a metal disposable tin, it makes a mess of it. And, it's humongous. Where to store it??? A total waste of money UNLESS you only plan to use it on cakes that are on a COMPLETELY FLAT serving surface.

Buy The Perfect Slice Pie Cake Slicer As seen on TV 3 Piece Set Now

I use this for slicing cheesecakes and regular cakes without any problems. I like the size handles it has for gripping. Easy to use and easier to clean. Like it's name, it is a perfect slicer!

Read Best Reviews of The Perfect Slice Pie Cake Slicer As seen on TV 3 Piece Set Here

I was really looking for something to cut my "Famous" New York Style Cheesecake. I make cheesecake and when I cut it, the cake sticks to the knife or whatever I am using. The slices pretty much crumble as I am cutting. Fortunately the taste compensates for the appearance!

Using this slicer, I figured I might be okay using it on a flat bottomed cheesecake out of an expansion pan. The cheesecake still stuck. The only difference was before I would have one little mess at a time with each slice. When I went to complete the cut with this new device slicing for the first time, there was an "Uh-oh" as I started pulling it up finding that I could now create messes on a much grander scale since I could now cut (or destroy) multiple slices in one stroke as they all stuck to the slicer and crumbled at once. This "Perfect Slice Slicer" did not solve my problem. This was a waste of time and money just enought to make it not worth sending back. I don't foresee any special uses for it to occupy space in my kitchen and it will likely end up at a local Thrift Store.

This device will only slice as long as the food item is on a flat surface (nope, don't see how it would slice pies). If it is used to cut anything that might stick to it, (like maybe cheesecake or very moist cake), it will stick as you come back up to complete the cut. I suppose one could use it to mark absolutely perfectly even sized portions, but I guess I'm just not that anal. I think a knife and pie server work as well or better.

I have been looking for something that will slice my cheesecake (kind of like those presliced cheesecakes in Costco where there are slices of plastic between every slice) and I have become frustrated in trying to find something... Still Looking!

MATFER BOURGEAT Plain Pelton Spatula Exoglass

MATFER BOURGEAT Plain Pelton Spatula ExoglassThis is the first spatula my wife has been satisfied with. The others have been either too flimsy, the edge too blunt, or the food sticks to them.

J.A. Henckels International Classic Forged Hollow-Edge Stainless-Steel 2-Piece Knife Set

J.A. Henckels International Classic Forged Hollow-Edge Stainless-Steel 2-Piece Knife SetHaving been fascinated by all the hype over the hollow edge knives, I did my homework and picked this 2 knife set to try. After using these knives and in particular the 5" knife I understand what the rave is about. The control and shape of the knife allows for very precise cutting and slicing. From meat to vege's the 5" knife has a very light yet accurate feel. Being only 5" long the knife isn't meant for large items, but I have already ordered the 7" version. My wife uses the paring knife for almost all her light daily activites.

If you are a novice to better cutlery, Henckels makes very high quality items and in my opinion, is an excellent value. I already own a full set of Wusthoff and frankly am not sold on the brand. This 2 knife set, a 8" chefs knife, and perhaps the 7" hollow edge would be what I would pick to start a collection of good knives.

I am so glad I bought this set. I thought about some more expensive knives, some recommended by "famous" chefs, but this set along with the bread knife are all I need in my kitchen. The handles are well balanced. Not too heavy, not too light. Everything about this set, IMHO, is just about perfect.They cut like thru butter, the handles are designed to fit into my hands just right. I really love them.

We have mostly the traditional blade Wusthof classic forged knives in our kitchen, but we got this Henckels Santoku set as a gift about a year ago. Almost immediately they became our favorite knives. We find the larger one is the more useful if you're getting them separately.

Great knives. Very sharp, good construction and felt nice in the hand. Inspired us to sharpen all the others in our drawer. 4 stars given due to excess packaging. The knives fit securely in the package design but there was extra plastic and space at the top of package...seems wasteful.

Wusthof Traditional Gourmet 7-Piece Block Set

Wusthof Traditional Gourmet 7-Piece Block SetI purchased this set during an Amazon Friday Sale and am pleased with its quality.

Each knife came separately packaged. It was packed as in it's original box inside of a larger box (important to me since I dislike it when items are shipped only in their manufacturer's box).

I am a novice cook and a young bachelor recently out of college so I needed a set of knives to start out with. Using my cheap Farberware or whatever brand you get at the supermarket wasn't cutting it (literally). So based on the price and the reputation of Wushtof, I decided to go with this set. It's supposed to be designed the same as the Classic series of Wushtof knives (excellent knives), but not of the same quality. I cannot give any negative comments about it yet. I use the chef's knife most often, but all have been very useful. The knives were very sharp out of the box and cut through anything smoothly and cleanly. Remember that I'm upgrading from supermarket knives, but this has made cutting things fun. I smile everytime I cut a tomato so nicely and easily or a chicken breast into two thin filet-like pieces.

I recommend this to those who need a set of knives to get away from that supermarket junk, but don't really have the money (or don't want to spend that much money) on a set of knives. I would also recommend it for anyone. I haven't used any "top of the line" knives, but for me, these are one of the most satisfying additions to my growing arsenal of kitchenware.

I love my knife set. I have used the more expensive Wusthof chef's knives at cooking class, and I cannot tell any difference between them and this very reasonably priced Gourmet knife. The small bread/tomato knife is fabulous. The chef's knife is perfect. And the shears come in handy constantly. Cannot recommend this set highly enough. Keep in mind that I am a novice cook, but I can't see anyone being disappointed with these knives and this price.

I've had these a few days and have used them extensively. I plan on updating this review as I continue to use them for weeks and months.

I really enjoy the shape of the blade, and the steel handle is the perfect shape for dicing vegetables, etc. Some may consider the handle a little short, but it's just right for me.

They wash fine in the dishwasher though it recommends "hand washing for fine cutting instruments"... They said made in the USA, though I do not know if that is a good thing or a bad thing for a knife... we tend to think Japan, right?

The packaging is very basic white with no branding or lettering. Considering the exceptional value here, that was OK for me, and thus I consider them a great deal for basic kitchen vegetable chopping and the like. I will update on sharpness as I've used them enough.

Waterford Monte Clare by Reed & Barton 65-Piece Stainless-Steel Flatware Set with Hostess Set and C

Waterford Monte Clare by Reed & Barton 65-Piece Stainless-Steel Flatware Set with Hostess Set and Chest, Service for 12I love this set of silverware by Reed Barton. It pays to buy a nice set of flatware, no more bent fork tines, the silverware doesn't tarnish, spot or discolor. The style is very contemporary/transitional so it will go with very nearly any style of dishes and decor you chose to put this gorgeous flatware next to. Everyone carries on about Oneida but I find Reed & Barton's quality and styles to be second to none.

I am thoroughly pleased with the weight and feel of this flatware. Getting the hostess set AND the silver chest at this price was an additional bargain. The price is better than other websites I visited. The pieces are "continental" style, which means the handles are longer than American style flatware, and they feel perfectly balanced in your hand. There are no rough edges and being that they're 18/10 composition, they shouldn't get dull over time. I'm glad I purchased these for my new home!

Buy Waterford Monte Clare by Reed & Barton 65-Piece Stainless-Steel Flatware Set with Hostess Set and C Now

I recently order the 65 piece Waterford Monte Clare flatware set with chest and have been very satisfied with flatware portion of my purchase. The chest is another story. The chest I received was not like the one pictured in the description. The pictured chest shows the Waterford symbol on the inside lid but the chest I received had no inscription. It makes me think that the chest isn't apart of the Waterford line at all but rather a standard old chest. Now, mind you, there's nothing physically wrong with the chest. I just would have perferred the chest to have the Waterford symbol in it. I paid more for the "Waterford Set" thinking that the chest was Waterford as well. If I had known it wasn't, I could have saved myself about $50 and gone with just the Waterford flatware set from the Bowl Company for around $170.

Single Knork

Knork Gloss Single TubeGot this to use in place of the plastic utensils at work. It's on the heavy side but I have no issues with that. The edges aren't really sharp but they are VERY sturdy and have sort of a pointed edge so it does cut through many items better than you would expect. My wife laughed at the need to buy a Knork but I like it. It's also shaped so it works very well scooping ice cream. The points dig in better than a spoon could.

The one I received is off center in the tines, but other than that It's all good!

Wusthof Culinar 2-Piece Asian Cook's Set

Wusthof Culinar 2-Piece Asian Cook's SetThese are great knives. I use these two everytime I am preparing a meal. I've owned them for almost five years now. I bought a generic honing steel and a few passes each week and the blades have stayed sharp longer than anything I've ever owned. The gaps on the side of the blade really do seem to stop slices from stickign so much to the blade. Still happens some, especially with something like a tomato.

Some people have asked me if they are slippery with wet hands, being all metal and the answer is not at all. The brushed handles are textured and they never feel loose or slippery even when my hands are wet from washing stuff or handling meats.

The little W logo is attached by glue and that came off. Other than that, they've been flawless. I've even thrown them in the dishwaher once in a lazy while. I think the heat from the dishwasher is what unglued the logo.

The brushed steel look is just very classy and not ultra-modern-although it might fit well in that style too. I like it much better than the everyday-black handles. After five years, I have no desire to buy a replacement. These were worht the investment.

I'm a professional chef and ordered the KIWI Knife after a co-worker recommended it to me. I've worked with Global, MAC and Wusthof before and was skeptical about the $10 price tag. The knife is lightweight and flexible. It came razor sharp and after a week of hard use still has its edge. Even better, I ran it across my waterstone a few times and it was like new. It's not a "SUV" utility knife like most German brands, but rather a "Sports-Car," as it is extremely useful for intricate and precision cuts on stuff like herbs, shallots and fruit. For the price, you really can't beat it. I've yet to find another knife this cheap that actually has an edge and isn't junk after a day. I recommend it and just ordered the 4" paring knife.

Wusthof Oyster Opener

Wusthof Oyster OpenerOf course I had to drop it right out of the package. Didn't matter, it still works like a charm. It is sort of a cross between an oyster and a clam knife. Good, hard, sharp steel, it works great on the small oysters, where the larger knives can't get. Works good on large Blue Points, too, but it is Kumamotos etc where it really comes into its own. But user beware, it IS sharp. If you open a lot of oysters, you will appreciate this knife.
