5 Piece Sabatier Professional Knife Block Set - Solid Wood Block, Full Tang, Quality High Carbon Steel Taper Ground Blades, Triple Rivet Comfort Handles. Sharper for Longer. by Taylors Eye Witness

Bought as a present for my daughter for her new house and she is very happy with it, a good selection of knives which are good quality and easy to hold.

I thought I kept my knives sharp before I tried these ones. These are razor sharp and so easy in the hand too. Cutting, slicing and dicing are an ease, sturdy too. I cannot understand previous reviewers of these knives when they say they don't stay sharp. I read one review that was complaining the knives had lost the edge after ONLY three months of use. After I have used mine, they are washed which only takes seconds then dried, then about ten seconds on the sharpening stone to hone the edge back to where it should be. The only real care I have to take is not to put them in the washing up bowl with the rest of the washing up. They are honed to a razor edge so safety is the key.

On arrival 3 of the knives would not cut a tomato, once they had been sharpened they were fine so make sure that you have a decent knife sharpener, I have only had them a couple of weeks and have had to sharpen one of the knives again so time will tell, The wooden block is quite a bit smaller than my previous one so does look a bit insignificant in the kitchen, I had assumed they would all be a similar size.

You get what you pay for. These knives are the best I've ever owned. Very well balanced, apart from the bread knife which is rather blade-heavy and no bad thing, and they keep their edge for ages. The knife block is very well made and looks great too. I can't praise the knives highly enough.

I have had similar knives for many years and have been very pleased with the way that they cut everything in food prep. I have been looking for similar ones for our son/daughter-in-law, but have not seen the same thin blades on Sabatiers as we have been using anywhere: Until Now. These knives are thin, so they will cut with less force needed, they are superbly made and the block holds them neatly available on the worktop. At the price, they are just brilliant. If you need a great knife set to last years, get these. I have struggled to find anything close to this price for this quality.

Thought these were good, but the two big knives are now both broken after one dropped on the floor and the other broke whilst being sharpened. Clearly not made strong enough.

Bought these as I originally went for a cheaper version and regretted it. Metal handles make all the difference, feels quality. Sharp enough so far, not noticed them gliding through anything however I have not sharpened them yet.

The big knife snapped! I thought these were going to be good knives. Used them for about 2 months and the big knife snapped almost cutting me, was cutting a pepper. You can see where the metal hasn't been bonded well at all

Couteaux dont la marque suffit à expliquer la qualité. La prise en main est agréable, le tranchant au rendez-vous. Ils s’insèrent bien dans le bloc du plus bel effet. Une étoile en moins pour la livraison. Chronopost livre toujours laborieusement, l'emballage est celui d'origine avec l'étiquette d'envoi juste collée dessus (c'est super pour faire un cadeau!), le colis n'est même pas scellé (ça va tout était complet). Il n'y a plus de carton d'emballage chez Amazon????

Block de couteaux qui coupe super bien
