Review of Tramontina 4 Piece Polywood Sharp Tip Steak Knife Set

These are the only knives I have that really stay sharp with no help from me.I have some older ones too, slightly larger, that I've had for years and never have to sharpen.So, they're always the ones I reach for in the drawer-they don't need to be in any kind of holder either to preserve the edge, and into the dishwasher they go--all the time.So, yes, I would recommend these.

Product Description
Now you can have steak house steak knives at your own dining table. These short sturdy blades with a comfortable poly-wood riveted handle will make quick work of beef, lamb, and pork.

Review of J.A. Henckels Twin Cuisine 9-Piece Block Set

We purchased this set of knives about two months ago and we are extremely satisfied with it. We compared this set with the pro series and some Wusthof's and picked these based on the feel and the price.

The balance of these knives are perfect and the handle is very sturdy. The addition of the santoku knife is great and works very well.

Overall, I am extremely satisfied.

Review of Miracle Blade III 11-pc. Knife Set

I would not recommend this set for any reason.I ordered this set and the one offered by ron popeil for the same price.The Popeil set had more items and was just a more substantial product.My miracle III knives have rust stains and the small chopper is so thin that it is nicked.Plus, the sets were $39.00 when they were made in the USA.Now they are made in china and sell for the same price.Do not be fooled by the wonderful television ad's.the set from popeil is far superior and the same price.

update:10 mar 05.these people are impossible.my knives are RUSTING.stainless steel!!!!!!!!i called miracle blade two months ago.they were going to send me a new set.That was after being cut off 3 times.their computers were down.i called them again the other day and was told their computers were down.finally i called and said i wanted to place an order and it was a miracle, the computers suddenly came up.i finally demanded a supervisor, none available.i was told i would have to pay $29.00 for the warranty.i laughed.i had to pay $14.99 for shipping.they are just sleezy.look into sharpkut II.they are great knives.i have had one for twenty years.i thought that miracle blade was the same company.NOT.sharpkut II knives are made in the USA and don't rust.trust me.stay away from miracle blade.

Review of J.A. Henckels Twin Gourmet 4-Piece Steak Set

My wife and I have been using another brand of steak knives for the last five years.About 6 months ago, we replaced the rest of our knife set with Henckles.We fell in love with them.They are a quality knife that really keeps its edge (when properly cared for).So, we broke down and bought the Hollow Edge Henckel steak knife set.They are everything that we could ask for.Even though we don't have more than a month of time with them, I highly recommend using them.I am sure they will keep the edge like the rest of the set we have.

Review of Forschner / Victorinox Steak Utility Knife, 4 3/4 in Straight, Rosewood Handle, pointed Tip Model 40002

This is my all-time favorite kitchen knife (the Forschner / Victorinox Steak Utility Knife, 4 3/4 in Straight, Rosewood Handle, pointed Tip Model 40002 ).The blade is strong, yet thin.This thin-ness makes it ideal for many many jobs, as it slices through fruits and vegetables much easier than a knife with a thicker blade.The size of the knife makes it good for paring & peeling, general kitchen use, or as a fine steak knife at the table.

The quality of the steel is excellent.It takes a razor edge when sharpening and holds the edge for a good period of time.I have one of these knives that is over 15 years old, it gets used multiple times every day, and it is still in excellent condition.

For sharpening, I use a Chef's Choice 120 (with 3-stage honing/polishing). Then I use a sharpening steel, and after that a ceramic sharpening steel.Then the edge is as good as it was when it came fresh from the factory.I have never needed to use the coarse honing stage of the 120 on my 15-year old blade, just the two finest honing stages. (Note - I don't like the Chef's Choice 130 - it has only two-stage honing, and the built-in sharpening steel does nowhere near as good a job as a hand-held steel.The 3-stage honing of the 120 is much better).

Review of LamsonSharp Set of 4 Serrated Steak Knives - Rosewood Handle

Don't get me wrong, I love these steak knives. However, after about 8 years of normal use, the serrated edges get dull.I mailed them back for sharpening. They sent them back to me with a note - "Serrated knives cannot be sharpened"!!!How's that for false advertising!

Review of Shun Pro: Set of 4 steak knives in a Bamboo Box (VG0150ST)

Best thing about them is their functionality. For steak knives they are amazing, you will think you are eating with a samurai sword. I have the shun kaji set, and i preffer theese knives better, both are amazing, but i like how theese feel in the hand, you will cut you meat and chicken without even letting a drop out of your piece... really amazing... also, pretty good to prepare sushi, really versatile.

Review of Shun Steel 5-Inch Steak Knife

We own a pair of these Shun 5" steak knives, and they are absolutely excellent steak knives.They are thin, rigid, light, sleek, and well-balanced.They slice meats thinly and smoothly, with the cut falling away from the blade.We've also noticed that when we pull them out of our bamboo knife block, they make a steely ringing noise, like unsheathing a tiny sword.While that might not be as amusing to you, we consider it a testament to the knife's craftmanship.I nearly forgot to mention that they are extremely *sharp,* but you could probably gather that from both reviews.We give these knives a "high recommendation," even with the equally high price point.Now if we could only afford to buy two more...

[Edit - July 2008] After a few months of pretty constant use, we have managed to chip both knives (!) They require professional sharpening, and should absolutely never be used as general utility knives.They are quite a bit more delicate than we first thought.Still recommended, but you really have to be quite careful with them.

Product Description
Seamless stainless steel construction produces this stunning collection.Features the look and benefits of Damascus steel, yet without it's rusting problems.

Review of Chroma 4-Piece Steak Knives

First I was very surprised, when I first time have seen the steak knives in a three star michelin restaurant in Alsace in France. They have no serration. They were extremely sharp. So I asked the chef, Mr. Westermann, why they are like this. And he explainded. They have no serration, so you can easy resharpen them by yourself. This way you always have the sharpest steak knife. If you resharpen them ;-)
I do it very easy frequently with a stone.
Everybody loves my new staek knives!

Review of Wusthof Grand Prix2 #9625 4piece steak set

Wusthof are Superb knifes.
Highest quality of precision forged in Solingen, Germany since 1814, Wusthof knives are designed for maximum strength, safety, balance and weight. Stainless steel construction ice-hardened for maximum durability and corrosion resistance, sleek innovative design, and great functionality. Very sharp and comfortable well priced at $169.99 price is right.
Wüsthof Steak Knifes Grand Prix II Set is an excellent example of fine craftmanship the are forged not stamped with perfect blend of materials.
I remember father purchasing Wusthof Solingen trident knifes though expensive they were and still are the best.

Product Description
A good steak is a great pleasure and cutting it with a fine knife makes it even more pleasurable.This set of 4 Grand Prix2 steak knives are sharpened to an ultra sharp edge.WusthofGrand Prix2 knives are made in "The Cutlery Capital of the World", Solingen Germany, the Wusthof factoryhistory goes back as far as 1814 when the company was listed with the Duchy of Berg. To this day, the company remains family owned.Throughout it¿s history, WÜSTHOF has focused almost solely on the manufacturing of forged knives for the professional chef and home cooking enthusiast. A considerable number of separate manufacturing steps are required to complete each precision forged knife. Each step is performed to exacting standards by skilled German workers aided by the most modern, computer guided equipment. Some of our precise steps are done robotically and utilize the same machinery that are used to produce very well known Swiss Watches. It is this balance of German technology and old world hand craftsmanship that is the secret of how each WÜSTHOF knife is created. Known the world-over for it¿s unique and uncompromising quality, Wusthof uses a special blend of German steel through out the whole length of the knife. The ingredients of this steel are proudly etched on each blade. Wusthof not only uses the best materials to make a fine knife,but it is also crucial that each blade is precisely tempered.This tempering allows the knife to hold its edge for an extremelylong time, yet still be able to be maintained in your home kitchen with out the need to be sent away for maintenance. Our unique compound angle is not seen in many knives.This angle tapers from the spine of the knife to the edge to allow for a sturdy, yet extremely sharp edge while it also tapers from the bolster to the tip to give the knife strength as well as flexibility.

Review of Zwilling JA Henckels Twin Cuisine 4-Piece Steak Knife Set

While Amazon advertises this knife set as a "Gift Set with bonus Birchwood Block," we received two separate orders of this knife set and did not receive the above mentioned bonus block.Having received the first order, customer service (an overseas operator) told us to contact the manufacturer for the block.When informed that the product was actually sold by Amazon and NOT THE MANUFACTURER, we were assured by the overseas operator that the manufacturer would be able to help us.So we called.Guess what.Henckels told us that Amazon was responsible for the block.

Called Amazon again.Got a different overseas operator.Was told he'd ship us the correct order.My wife just called me in my office and informed me that the package arrived and (guess what) same thing.No block.

Now, I not trying to make a case of getting a friggin' block for a knife set that is very superior in quality.But, come on Amazon, ship what the heck you advertise!

Review of Sabatier Laguiole 6-Piece Steak Knife Set, Black and Brass

These knives are junk. Seriously. Cheap plastic handles, a rivet job that looks as though someone nailed the knife together with tacks. Bent or crooked blades (depending on which knife you look at) complete with missing or maybe ground off points.

Unbelievable! ($$$) ? I don't think so.

Review of Chicago Cutlery Forum 4-Piece Steak Knife Set

The knives have a nice design and balance, and were sharp out of the box. Though I'm not a professional cook (just a single dad), I think they're excellent value. They are a high carbon stainless steel so they should be hand washed and dried. I did put mine into the dishwasher several times to see what would happen, but after about four washings they did did develop rust "stains" that came off with some soft scrub cleaner. That's the trade off--you get a sharper, longer-lasting edge with high carbon stainless steel, but it will develop rust stains in a dishwasher. Also, be aware that these Forum steak knives do not match the steak knives that come with the Chicago Cutlery 10-piece Forum Cutlery set. Though the handles are the same, the steak knives included in the cutlery set have a serrated edge and are about a 1/2 inch longer.

Product Description
Chicago Cutlery Forum 4-Piece Steak Set includes 4-Each steak knives, boxed.Chicago Cutlery Forum collection is constructed of high-carbon stainless steel blades and features our exclusive Taper Grind edge technology which is extremely sharp and enables precision cutting. The forged bolster provides balance and safety while ergonomically designed stainless steel handles combine comfort and safety with sleek, contemporary styling.

Review of Mundial Olivier Anquier 5-Inch Steak Knife with Serrated Edge

Having eaten steaks using henckels knives and few other big brands, i never understood the term, cuts like butter until i used this knife. I cooked a millet mignon, to medium rare with peppercorn crust. Started cutting at the start of the blade and as soon as it bypassed the crust, it really did cut same way as one would cut through butter.

Having used this knife at least a dozen times in the last 4 month, i can say that for the price i paid, it is trully a superior product.

Review of Anolon Advanced 15-Piece Knife Block Set

After holding off on buying new knives for years, and settling with a drawer full of hodge-podge of collected crud, I finally decided to treat myself.Could not be any happier with them.Felt guilty at first for buying myself something a couple of months before Christmas, but I rationalized that with all the cooking I'll be doing, I'll be far better off.The are amazing.The rubber-like grip makes for steady handling.They are weighted perfectly.Comes with a great sharpener, as well as super simple instructions on how to care for them.(Who knew you are really supposed to sharpen them after each use!Takes two seconds, and will keep them like new forever!)Anyway, I'm still rambling.But I'm just so happy with them.And I love the santoku knife!The block looks great, too.
