Review: The best Chef knife there is - slices through everything like butter - I did a LOT of research on knives for months before making this purchase. I compared all the lines within like Wusthof & Zwilling, Japanese ones like Shun, Miyabi, Global etc. Wusthof in my opinion was the best all round winner - Quality, looks, durability, ease of maintenance and price. Moreover, this particular deal - Chef and paring knives for $172 is a steal. (Only the chef knife is worth $180 everywhere else). The Chef knife is a killer knife, slices through anything you want like its butter. And it feels absolutely perfect in your hands. Do not underestimate the paring knife - its fantastic for cutting fruits and vegetables - we use it everyday as well. I am sticking to my promise to only hand wash these.
Review: Tremendously sharp knife - These are suburb when it comes to a good kitchen knife. They're well worth the extra cost. My sister has owned a set for 15 years and they're what sold me on how sharp and well balanced they are. If your considering buying German steel knives please read carefully on where they're made. Some say German steel but are made in China. These are made in Germany

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love these knives
*by D***N on December 14, 2014*

I love these knives. They actually make me want to cook. They feel great in my hand. I think the Ikon handle makes the slightly higher price worth it. These are really the only two knives you need - all of the rest could easily be considered specialty knives. I have others but rarely ever use them. They are super sharp and have a beautiful edge right out of the box. I bought an electric sharpener to keep them tip top. The electric sharpener is worth it if you are here because your current knives are dull. It has revived some walmart specials to an amazing degree. If you enjoy cooking and your current knives cost less than $50, treat yourself. You'll understand why I brought them with me to my brothers house to cook.
