Mundial 5100 Series 7-Piece Knife Set with Block, Black

I bought the Mundial 7-piece set for my father in law. I wanted to get him a quality of set of knives at an affordable price. Knowing that no set of knives like Shun or Wusthof could possibly be worth the $500-$1000 price tag and owning Henckels myself I knew there had to be a happy medium. I did some research and Mundials are exactly that. Not too expensive but very high quality. They are heavy with good balance, fully forged (one piece of metal), and guaranteed for life. I suggest though paying the extra $50 and getting the 10-piece set as the block for the 7 is the same and have 3 empty slots. The individual cost for the extra 3 knives is actually much more than $50.

I bought a small set of small, regular kitchen knives at a local store and fell in love with them, so a few months later when it came time to make a wedding registry I put this Mundial knife set at the top of my list.

We love our knife set, they are so sharp! Nothing has given these knives a problem.

I can't compare them to other high end knives, since I haven't used any, but me and my wife are happy with these.

I love my old Mundial scissors (I've had them for 6+ years) so I was excited to get this set of knives with a new pair. Unfortunately there was a couple of set-backs that made me regret buying this on Amazon.

First, there's some hackery being used to describe this kit. The second image of the knives shows 7 pieces, but there's actually only 6. One of the small knives is not included and the block is really the 7th piece. So it's really "6-Piece Set w/ Block" as opposed to the clarity of the "10-piece Block Set".

Second, the scissors are substandard. My old Mundial scissors were clean and elegant. The new ones are rough, greasy, shop metal. I honestly thought Amazon sold me a counterfeit set. I've contacted Mundial about the difference, along with pictures, and am awaiting a response (update: they responded fast!)

The knives seem good. The only product I knew was the scissors, so I don't know if they're different.

[Update] within minutes of this post I got an email from a Mundial team. They're sending new shears and have asked me to send them the bad ones. Very happy to see such service =)
