Progressive International Herb Pro

This is a pretty handy gadget for those who enjoy cooking with fresh herbs. It appears to be pretty well made and the container is very useful for other storage or measuring purposes. The busy chef will likely prefer something faster than the "scissoring" of the herbs in the container, however; also, if you need finely chopped herbs or to prepare more than a small amount of same, this is not the right tool. Still, a good value product. The scissors are useful as floroal snippers too.

The beans are in and these little shears snip the ends off faster than anything. Yes, they're great for herbs, but also for other kitchen tasks. Any time my regular kitchen scissors get mislaid, I can reach for these shears as my backup pair. The multi-blade herb shears may be great for herbs, but not for opening a pouch of frozen veggies or liberating an individually packaged fillet.

These shears can be locked closed and hung from a hook so they are always in easy reach. I use them to harvest herbs from my Aerogarden (AeroGrow AeroGarden with Gourmet Herb Seed Kit, Black) or my summer deck planters as well as cutting the herbs into small pieces. The little container actually works quite well for mincing and measuring, but I more often just cut things 'freehand' directly into the pot or salad. The spring action makes the cutting job easy. I'm pleased with this purchase and use the shears frequently. They are an excellent kitchen multi-tasker.

I cook with a lot of herbs and I hate how much time it takes to chop them on a cutting board. It leaves me with green stained fingers/nails. I've tried chopping them in a food processor, but it never seems to work well. These scissors are wonderful, especially for the price. You have control of how fine the herbs are, there's very little storage space needed for this item and my nine year old daughter likes to help chop herbs now. That alone is worth the cost. Seriously, my chopping time was cut in half and no green fingers!!

Mincing herbs such as Rosemary, Coriander and Parsley is quick and easy with the Herb Shears. Clean up involves little effort. For this product, the price is reasonable.

I got this recently and found it to be very useful for finely mincing herbs. It also works well for a chop-like consistency. I like that you can keep unused portions capped in the same container.

Shun Classic Left-Handed 3-1/2-Inch Stainless-Steel Paring Knife

This is my second Shun Classic Left-Handed knife (the first was wide santoku). This knife simply rocks. It is very very sharp and fits perfectly in my hand.

Really, stop buying over and over $11.99 knifes from retail stores.

p.s. Shun company offers free sharpening (just pay one way shipping).

This was my first foray into real high quality knives and that was all it took to make be a believer. This thing is incredibly sharp and cuts better than anything else in my block. I am left-handed so I appreciate that Shun made a variant for me that feels great in my hand.

Hi I just got this paring knife a month ago and only use it a few times before leaving on a deployment. I am not a professional chef just trying to act like one. I am left handed explaining why I got a left handed knife LOL. I will say this knife is very very sharp it will slice a potato as if it was butter. My only issue and it maybe cause I have not used it often enough. Is it pulls to the middle of the potato as if it was a right handed knife. The knife does not seem to have a one sided blade so maybe I was holding it wrong. Again I only had a chance to use it a few times before leaving town.

Kuhn-Rikon Kulu Herb and Vegetable Knife

Because I love my first Kuhn-Rikon Kulu Vegetable Knife so much, I ordered this one as a gift for my daughter. This knife is very versatile I especially like it for cutting salad vegetables. I frequently use bagged salads, so I just dump the bag's contents into a big bowl, and then rock my blade through the lettuce and stuff a few times. Voila bite-size pieces! The blade, which is super sharp, is very easy to clean. Some reviewers found the curved tool difficult to use, but I think it's quite easy. My arthritic fingers can easily and painlessly use this wonderful knife. With this, an onion slices perfectly, and my eyes don't tear because I don't saw back and forth releasing onion fumes into the air. I also use it to trim and slice meats for wok-cooking. It is a great invention and the low price is a pleasant surprise.

I love the sprayer. It's very easy to use, and I get a lot more use out of my olive oil now. The potatoe peeler is fine, as good as any. I never use the lettuce knife, but this package is a good enough deal without it.

I really only wanted the Misto sprayer, but for the price I jumped on it. Wow, the quality of all three items is surprisingly high. And all for the price of the sprayer. You can't go wrong with this deal folks!

Messermeister Meridian Elite 8-Inch Carving Knife

I got this knife about 5 years ago while working on a line. about a year of use before I quit my job thinking I wasn't going back to a kitchen. so when instead of buying a can opener like a normal person this knife was used as a can opener for a year.... I returned to the kitchen after owning this knife for 3 years and was amazed that I was able to sharpen this knife back to be a real cooking tool, after stabbing into cans. about 2 years back in the kitchen this knife is not far off from perfect, even the tip. I can only imagine how it would be if I had taken care of it.

Alton's Angles by Shun Angled 5 1/2 Inch Santoku Knife

The knife I received is not the knife shown on Amazon.

It is a very nice Shun knife, but it is not an Alton's Angles

knife. The knife shown on Amazon had Alton Brown's logo on it, this one does not. I bought this gift as a birthday present for my husband who is a huge fan of Alton Brown's. I was told by customer service the Alton's Angles knife is not available anymore. If so, Amazon should not show his image on it.

First off...take the stock picture of this knife off the web

my wife is a huge fan of alton brown even has his shun logo tattooed on her four arm

i bought this knife thinking it had alton browns signature on it.

Shun presents the Alton Brown Angle santoku knife. It is very well crafted and rivals my Henkels in heft and feel. The blade is beautifully crafted steel, and has ridge lines embossed that give it the look of folded damscus steel. This is an extremely sharp blade. The angle of the handle keeps your knuckles from hitting the cutting board. I look forward to a lifetime of use from this quality piece.

Togiharu Virgin Carbon Steel Gyutou

I took the next step to full carbon steel versus high carbon stainless (HCS). I have other Togiharu knives and knew that the fit and finish would be very nice. Indeed, this gyutou is beautiful but also very functional.

The whole knife is light for its size and well balanced. The edge is thin and holds its shape very well. It is like an oversize scalpel.

The down side to carbon steel versus HCS is the staining aspect. Some foods change the color of the blade while others can give it actual rust quite quickly. I have to always clean it right after I use it. In fact, Bar Keepers Friend does a great job in shining it back up.

I know that some chefs prefer carbon blades but I wonder how they take care of them while using them throughout their shift. I'm certainly glad I bought the Togiharu Virgin Carbon Gyutou. It's one great knife and I'll continue to take care of it to keep it that way.

One last note. Togiharu is a great company. If you don't want the hastle of carbon steel, consider the Moly or Inox lines that Togiharu offers. As said by many people, Korin is a great place to buy a knife.

Blade covers look good and hold knives ok. Compatible with my knife roll. Mix is awkward and some I will never use, but overall price per unit is still good even if you purchase a couple pieces of unnecessary plastic. I would round the edges to make them easier on the hands and/or knife roll.

Nice heavy tight-fitting blade guards. They work just fine with Globals in my wrap case.

Light, thin, sharpperfect. Have used only this brand of kitchen knives for the last 20 years. When I was talked into buying them at Zurich airport.

Taiwon Metal Stainless Steel Modern Space pattern flatware, Butter Knife set of 12

Exactly what I was looking for. Just small enough to sit on a butter plate and the price was not bad also.

The Modern Space series by Taiwon Metal is a simple yet lovely pattern with a simple rounded end. It's sleek and simple design make it a perfect for either restaurant use or to accompany intricate and beautiful china and crystal. This set is more than good enough quality for the average home, and it seems sturdy enough to hold up even in restaurants for many years. It does need occasional polishing but doesn't seem to easily scratch or bend.

The weakest part of this set is the absence of a few pieces: Appetizer Knife, Butter Spreader , and Bouillon Spoon (all of which are offered in the Baguette design) and a Fruit Fork, Fruit Knife, Fruit/Citrus Spoon, Oyster Fork (with three prongs), and Salt Spoon which are not offered in any of the Taiwon Metal patterns. But that only highlights exactly how perfect this set is for multi-course meals or restaurants with different dishes. One can easily built a 7-12-course meal with this set.

*This review is based on a sample received for a minimal cost from the manufacturer.

Cuisinox Steak Knife with Black Handle (Set of 6)

These knives are gorgeous! They were purchased for us from our wedding registry and we are so happy with them. They slice through steak flawlessly, are very well made, and absolutely beautiful. The case is sturdy and I keep them stored in it in our cutlery drawer. I'd recommend these to anyone looking for truly stylish and (dare I say?) sexy steak knives.

Buy Cuisinox Steak Knife with Black Handle (Set of 6) Now

These steak knives are very attractive but are best used on meat. There is a curve to the blade which cuts other foods such as tomatoes or even bananas weirdly. It does not cut straight down but pulls to the side when cutting. I use my steak knives as general purpose knives so for me these knives are just not what I needed. They were inexpensive, however, so I just use them for meat and will buy other knives for all purpose cutting

Kyocera Revolution Series 4-1/2-Inch Utility Knife And Peeler Gift Set

This is very sharp knife! Comfortable handle, useful shape of the blade, sharp, makes precise fine cuts. Everything one would expect from a ceramic knife. With all the pros and cons. Kyocera will resharpen this knife for a fee (around $10), but I can't comment on that because I didn't have the knife long enough.

The peeler is also very good, with ceramic peeling blade.

I would definitely recommend this set as an addition to you fine-steel cutlery block.

Love the knife....stays sharp (forever), just not practical for twisting operation (such as deboning chicken), since the knife will break.

Buy Kyocera Revolution Series 4-1/2-Inch Utility Knife And Peeler Gift Set Now

I just got mine in the mail today and the first thing I did is start cutting stuff.

I used all of my old cutting knives (7 year old cutco) and compared it against this one... HOLY C>R>A>P!!!!

I effortlessly cut through a raw potato!!! I cut a piece of the potato and laid it on its side (a circular cross section). Then i proceeded to make 1-2 MM cuts across the entire cross section. I had 50 mini fries that were super thin.

Then I started to cut apples the long way (if the core is North/South I was cutting east to west). Basically these slices look exactly what you get from "apple chips" bags. I bet if I let them sit out and dry they would taste pretty good. Also another cool thing: the apples were dead white, they did not start to turn brown and oxidize...this knife is amazing. I'm buying one for my dad for his birthday.

Read Best Reviews of Kyocera Revolution Series 4-1/2-Inch Utility Knife And Peeler Gift Set Here

The knife is great, but the peeler only peels in one direction so is unsuitable for lefties who peel using an outward motion. When I looked at the peeler I thought it would be simple enough to just flip the blade around to make it work for me. Wrong! Whoever designed the peeler designed it so that the blade cannot be reversed because the holes that the blade goes into are different diameters on each side. It's a terrible design decision that'll make me think twice about buying handed devices from this manufacturer.

Want Kyocera Revolution Series 4-1/2-Inch Utility Knife And Peeler Gift Set Discount?

I love these knives (this is my third). And the peeler is pretty incredible; this is the second one I've bought and couldn't be happier with the quality and sharpness. It only allows you to peel away from you, so it's a little tricky for apples but for straight veggies it's excellent.

Iron Chef IC-3002 Ceramic 6-Inch Chef's Knife

I'm a foodie and was very excited to try out this ceramic knife. This was the first time that I had the opportunity to experience the ceramic technology. It did not disappoint! This chef's knife is true to it's description of being light weight, it has a really good feel in the hand, very comfortable. I of course had to test the "stain" proof and jumped right in with chopping fresh cranberries. It slices with precision, no smushed fruit and it cleaned beautifully. This knife will definitely be my go to knife in prepping salads and fruits. As this is a high quality knife it does require high quality care, not tossing it in the sink or using it without a cutting board. All of my quality pieces in the kitchen are treated with great care, this knife included.

I purchased this knife for the sale price of $29.99 having previously acquired the 5 inch "As Seen On TV" version from CVS for only $14.99 (Yoshi blade). I was so disappointed with this knife that I felt compelled to write my first product review ever. Compared to the much cheaper version I purchased from CVS, the handle and grip were not nearly as good and the cutting ability of this product paled in comparison. I had trouble slicing through the skin of a tomatoe. Once I forced the knife to break the skin, it was ok. As a side note, the $15 version came with a storage sleeve to store the knife in when it is not in use the $30 one did not. Needless to say, I am going to return it.

I own three ceramic knives and love them so had high expectations for this one. It won't even cut a tomato without squashing it and I had to push extra hard to get it to cut through a green pepper. It does feel sturdy and I like the handle but I'm not sure what it's good for because it isn't for cutting.

The knife is not sharp at all. It will not cut into tomatoes with out just squishing them. Vegetables are difficult to cut due to bluntness of the blade. A useless knife and a real disappointment. It is also ridiculously priced considering the lack of sharpness. I'm returning ASAP.

Want Iron Chef IC-3002 Ceramic 6-Inch Chef's Knife Discount?

I'm giving it 3 stars, but for some these could be a 5 star knife. For others a 1 star. Here's my reasoning.

Definitely lightweight. With its thin white blade, and some of the warnings on the box, I could be quite brittle. I'm not about to see how much pressure I can put on it till it snaps. But definitely don't drop it. Tip or blade could chip easily.

Another issue is I store my knives on a magnetic bar. Not this one.

It boasts that it won't impart a metal taste to your food, but I've never had anyone ask if I used a steel knife because of the food's taste.

It certainly is unique and although they claim it will withstand years of use before sharpening, I can't be sure what one would use to sharpen it.

Also, despite their boasts, it is not as sharp out of the box as other knives (Shun comes to mind).

So 3 stars for a usable knife that is definitely a conversation piece. Worth the $30 in a Gold Box deal. I wouldn't spend the regular price of $70+ for a 6" knife that only needs to get nicked to ruin it.

Will report back after some serious use. So far, a satisfying purchase.

Victorinox Cutlery 12-Inch Wavy Edge Slicing Knife, Black Fibrox Handle

This is indeed a typical fine product from Victorinox but as a carving knife goes it's probably a little thin. (I had asked for the granton edge knife for Christmas and received this one instead from my wonderful wife.) The knife cuts easily but weaves off course as you slice through the meat. It's light as a feather and will work great with a bit more concentration on my part. Great conversation piece, too, when you're carving for a crowd.
