Customer Rating:

Summary: Consistent Rust Stains
Comment: Despite my by-the-book care of these knives, I still get rust stains that are nearly impossible to get off. I do not have that problem with other knives in my collection, but these clean up like cheap steel. Not very attractive, and you don't want to eat with them.

Customer Rating:

Summary: I do wish Amazon would be a little more honest with Calphalon 'savings'....
Comment: If you visit the Calphalon site (www.calphalon.com), you will see that the 'suggested retail' is $49.95! Thus, your 'real' savings are in free shipping.

Also, these knives are manufactured in China, not in Germany or the USA. Despite this, they are, as another reviewer stated, superior to stamped blades.

Customer Rating:

Summary: We're really pleased with these knives
Comment: These knives are a pleasure to use. The have a nice heft and balance, classic look, single piece tang fabrication, and a very stiff blade. I also liked the price.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Excellent set of forged steak knives
Comment: I have had these knives for about 6 months now and could not be happier. They have excellent balance and feel. A major improvement to the stamped knives that comes with the Calphalon 15 piece set. The wood storage tray that comes with the knives is not very nice (light pine with no finish), but I don't use it anyway.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Almost a hit.
Comment: I was a little surprised with this set. Don't get me wrong, you should buy it, but the edge lacked a little of the visual refinement of the rest of the line. Also, the block of wood shipped with the knives is made of pine, or some other very soft wood. It would be nice if it was a Maple match to the block that shipped with the 15 piece set. This is a very good set, but it could use a little help upon arrival with a very fine whetstone, and a proper hardwood block. If you don't mind 2 minutes per blade with an ultra fine stone, this set compares well with the best of the two big homegrown German brands. Don't get me wrong, this set is far above any stamped steel set (even the stamped offerings from the big German brands). Buy it and enjoy!
