Wusthof Gourmet 23-Piece Block Knife Set

Bought these as a step up from the crappy Pinzon knives we bought from Amazon years ago. They were shipped from Macy's and Yay! they shipped to APO addresses. Let me tell you, when these things arrive they are SHARP! However, these aren't Wusthof's top of the line by any means. Some of the steak knives were full tang, some only partial. Most of the blades are pretty thin, with the exception of the larger blades (santoku, cook knife, cleaver, etc.). And the included block clearly wasn't intended for this set. It's short two slots, so I had to double up on some of the knives, while the slots for the smaller knives are too big, leaving way to much wiggle room. But using these knives is a dream. They glide through produce and veggies with nary an effort. I've been using them for over 4 months now, and they still seem as sharp as the day I got em. Been using the steel only when I felt I needed to, and have used the provided Wusthof pull-through "sharpener" as sparingly as possible. Would I buy this set again? For the price I paid (on sale) yes. But I do think I'll spend the extra money and get Trident Classics or their Grand Prix2.
