Saber F-11 Working Chef Knives with Chefs Knife Bag Review

Saber F-11 Working Chef Knives with Chefs Knife Bag
Average Reviews:

A friend of mine is a professional chef for an up-scale restaurant in downtown Seattle. He uses Saber Knives exclusively and claims they are by far the best on the market. I had no idea where to find a set; he got his through a chef supply place in New York. I've been checking on-line for some time now and then...finally Amazon has the same set he has. I bought a set immediately and they are fantastic! If you are serious about cooking and want the best in the kitchen, this Saber Knife Set will make you very happy.

Providing professional-grade cutlery at a price an apprentice can afford, this 12-piece knife set makes a smart choice for any busy kitchen. The set includes a 3-1/2-inch paring knife, a 4-1/2-inch paring knife, a 5-inch French boning knife, a 6-inch utility knife, a 7-inch Santoku, and an 8-inch bread knife, as well as an 8-inch slicer, an 8-inch chef knife, a 10-inch chef knife, a 10-inch ham knife, and a 10-inch sharpening steel to help keep the blades in good working order--plus a carrying bag to keep everything neatly contained. The knives come fully forged (not stamped or cast) from a single piece of proprietary German steel and go through a 38-step manufacturing process that includes heat treating and cryogenic freezing to ensure blade stability and maximum sharpness. Each knife also features a comfortable handle, a full tang with bolster for exceptional strength and superior balance, and a scalloped edge (granton edge) that creates fine air pockets between the blade and the food being cut to minimize drag and improve efficiency. Furthermore, the durably constructed chef's bag provides concealed magnetic inserts and polymer sheaths that hold up to 13 knives securely in place for safety and protection from damage when not in use. The bag also offers an accessory pouch for smaller kitchen tools, an industrial-grade zipper closure, and a padded carrying handle and shoulder strap for comfort when transporting. The 12-piece professional knife set measures 22 by 10 by 4 inches and carries a lifetime warranty.

J.A. Henckels Black Fine Edge Pro 13-pc. Block Knife Set Review

These knives are exactly what I was looking for. I don't cook frequently, but wanted to have reliable cutlery for when I do. This set is more than up to the task. I have every type of knife I would need, and it's great to have a nice set of steak knives. Be aware, there are not enough slots in this block for both santoku knives. I have to keep one in a drawer.

i just got this set for my new apartment, and overall, i'm really happy with it. the knives are very sharp, ergonomically well designed, and look pretty on the counter. that being said, you should know that this set is not one of the higher quality henckels sets - a fact betrayed by the price. they are very light and somewhat delicate, so a bit difficult to weild with control, and poorly suited to cutting through tougher material such as bones. of course, some may find light knives convenient, but i would have preferred heavier blades and handles, especially on the bigger knives. the santoku knife was the most disappointing because it was thin and very light. the rest are fine as they are, and cut with great precision, especially given the price. there are a few of extra slots in the block, which, while strange, came in handy for my old homeless knives. also, the set pretty muuch covers the range of needs and preferences for cutting absolutely anything (except bone-in chicken/fish, since the knives are a bit delicate). if you're not looking for a lifetime keeper set, then this is a great set for you. i really love mine, and plan on keeping it until i can splurge on a $$$$ set.

The Henckels International line offers affordable cutlery from one of the world\'s most renowned knife manufacturers. Ideal for everyday use, this 17-piece set contains a 2-3/4-inch paring knife, 6-inch utility knife, 5-1/2-inch boning knife, 8-inch chef's knife, 8-inch carving knife, 8-inch bread knife, 7-inch hollow edge Santoku, 9-inch sharpening steel, eight 4-1/2-inch steak knives, and a black storage block. Formed of contoured, almost cushy santoprene, the handles are handsomely-backed with brushed stainless steel for added leverage and a sleek, contemporary look.
Fine Edge Synergy knives are constructed of stamped German stainless steel with hand-honed blades that can be resharpened (unlike the company\'s Everedge knives that have identical handles but micro-serrated edges). The molded handles are quite comfortable and resist breakage, and full-tang blades slice and chop with ease. Made in China, the cutlery is dishwasher-safe yet best washed and dried by hand. A lifetime warranty applies.
What\'s in the Box 2-3/4-inch paring knife; 6-inch utility knife; 5-1/2-inch boning knife; 8-inch chef's knife; 8-inch carving knife; 8-inch bread knife; 7-inch Santoku; 9-inch steel; eight 4-1/2-inch steak knives; black storage block can accommodate up to 20 knives.

Wusthof Classic Bread Knife and Board Set - Wusthof 1590 Review

Wusthof Classic Bread Knife and Board Set - Wusthof 1590
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Wusthof makes great knives and this one is no exception. This is a nice sharp knife which will keep its edge for a long time and the fact that a cutting board comes with it is an added plus. It's just long enough for things which come out of a standard 4.5" loaf pan. However the somewhat short 6 inch length makes it less useful for cutting the big round crusty loaves produced using the New York Times no-knead method or the breads from Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day: 100 New Recipes Featuring Whole Grains, Fruits, Vegetables, and Gluten-Free Ingredients or Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking
If you plan to use it on hearth style artisan breads in addition to standard loaves, you'd probably be happier with one having a longer blade, perhaps 8 or 9 inches.
