The holes cut in the wood block seem to vary a little so they may not all line up 100% (height wise) when down in their slot, but mine don't seem to have any noticeable difference from a couple feet away. The block is made in China and there was some visible spill out of glue in sections, but what do you expect from China.
Overall great first impression with these knives, I wanted to write this review now so I can come back and give an update when/if anything goes well or wrong in the future!I bought this set of knives about 3 weeks ago and I have been using it quite often. They came out of the box nice and sharp, and after a rinse with hot soapy water they were ready to use. The weight and balance feels nice in my hand when I'm slicing up meat, veggies, and herbs. I like the almost seamless connection between the handle and the blade. It makes it very easy to keep them clean.
Then knife block seems pretty sturdy and looks nice in my kitchen.
I bought this set as it seemed like the best quality for the money. All the knives are forged steel. A big selling factor for me is that these knives are not made in China. They are made in Brazil. However, the block comes from the PRC.
Anyway, so far so good. I feel like this is a great value for the money and I would recommend them for someone who's looking for a good set of knives but can't afford the big bucks for Henkel or Victorinox.

I'm by no means a gourmet chef or expert on high end knives. Some of the reviews on knives get into some serious detail comparing the knives to space shuttle alloy materials and Japanese/German steel heritage. All I know is that these knives didn't cost me an arm and a leg, are sharp as heck, and quite attractive. Because they a single body steel versus having a wood, attached handle, they are dishwasher safe (though I generally hand wash). The only two knocks I would give the set (why I rated 4 vs 5) are that the steak knives have no serration and it would have been nice to get a bread knife.Very nice and beautiful knives. Very sharp and good quality as well. And the block is made of solid wood.VERY GOOD QUALITY AND BRAND ITS FOR ME THE BEST BRAND IN STAINLEES STEEL IF YOU WANT A SUPERIRO QUALITY FROM THE REGULAR QUALITY THIS ITS YOUR CHOICE
