Rada Cutlery Serrated Slicer Knife, Made in USA, Aluminum Handle (R138) Review

I LOVE THE SHARP SERRATED BLADE OF THIS KNIFE. IT IS OF GOOD SIZE, FITS INTO MY HAND PERFECTLY. THE ONLY PROBLEM I FIND IS THAT THE HANDLE IS NOT SATIN FINISH ALUMINUM, BUT RATHER A BRUSHED FINISH THAT CAN BECOME A BIT ROUGH FEELING IN THE PALM AFTER SEVERAL WASHINGS.

The Serrated Slicer is fabulous for slicing meats, large fruits and vegetables.Blade 7 inches, overall 11 1/2 inches.Rada cutlery is made of surgical quality, high carbon stainless steel. Hollow-ground blades ensure a precision concave surface for maximum edge retention and sharpness. The solid cast brushed aluminum handles create a 'feel good in your hand' balance for superior comfort. NOTE:Hand wash and dry immediately after use to prevent discoloration of the aluminum handle. Like all Rada Cutlery, this item carries a lifetime manufacturer guarantee against defects.

J.A. Henckels International Classic 4-Inch Stainless-Steel Paring Knife Review

J.A. Henckels International Classic 4-Inch Stainless-Steel Paring Knife

First, I preface my review by stating I am not a professional chef, nor am I a very experienced cook, but in fact I am a novice who enjoys learning to cook. My parents have the entire set of the same Henckels International Classic set and thus this is the only set I had ever really used for most of my short cooking life. I presumed all knives were like this and this is the norm. Well, I recently moved and also recently had been cooking at friends and family's houses who don't have this set of knives...well let me just say, I now know the importance of a good set of knives. The knives cut cleanly and easily, leaving clumsy people like myself less opportunity to injure themselves. So, one of my first purchases in my own place was of course the same set of Henkels International Classic knives that I had "grown up on." (The store near me didn't have a complete set, so I bought this little paring knife essentially to complete the set.)
I should also say that in choosing a set of knives, I called the Henkels company to ask about the difference between this set and the Henkel Pro or 4 star. I was told that the difference is in the weight and that this set is a little lighter than the pro and also that this set is designed in Germany but built in Spain. The staff was very friendly and told me honestly that unless I was a professional chef or professional cook that I really did not need to spend almost double the money on the pro and that the international set would be quite sufficient and perhaps even more appropriate.
I would recommend this set and this company to anyone and everyone especially the novice...because good and safe cooking starts with a good set of knives.
BTW I don't compliment companies easily.

Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Grip Colored Paring Knives, Set of 4 Review

At first I was turned off by the bright (gaudy) colors. However, I have learned to appreciate that these knives are color-coded! They stand out in the knife drawer, and you can always find the one you are looking for. Consequently, the right knife is used to get the job done.
The knives are indestructable and durable. We have owned ours 4-5 years and they show no unusual wear. Put them into the dishwasher! We don't do that with another knife (regretted it when we have), but these can take it. The knives are well-designed for function, comfortable to handle, strong, & sharp.
We love them and gave sets to our adult kids who always are commenting on how useful they are. Friends that visit and use ours comment favorably on them.
These aren't showy knives for formal dining nor will they impress anyone with your classy style. However, they do impress everyone who uses them. And, the price is nice.

Chroma Type 301 Designed By F.A. Porsche 8 1/2 inch Bread knife Review

I recently purchased a set of 6 of these knives, and I couldn't be happier. We were originally considering Global and Wusthof Culinar knives, but once holding those and then these, we decided these were the knives for us.
Their unusual design is not only stylish, but functional. The wider handle design makes them easy to hold onto, even when your hands are wet or greasy. (Not the case with the other two.) The knives are also heavy and extremely well balanced, giving you a solid feel when you cut through something. Finally, they are forged out of just one piece of metal, so there are no seams (like on the Wusthof Culinar line) between the handle and the blade, making them a breeze to clean up with a little soapy water. (As with all good knives, they should never be put in the dishwasher.)
This bread knife cuts through soft or hard bread with ease. It is so sharp that I think it will be a long time before it needs sharpening. (For comparison, I use some of the other knives in my set every day, have had them for 3 months, and I'm just thinking of sharpening for the first time soon.)
I really don't think you could go wrong with this knife.
