fantastic cutlery
I was so lucky to find this set of Cutlery. I had three different sets of Faberware Cutlery before this and loved all of them. I found the chefs, and all the others except the stake knives for $12.98 at Ross. That is new and I sharpened them and they are fantastic. I did not know that Cuisinart had anything to do with Farberware untill I looked them up on the web. I would have spent the money for them anyway but what a bargain I got. Love Them...
Nice try - but has plastic handle
I was lured in by the fact that these knives were forged and that the metal went all the way through the knife. Not bad. What isn't clear is that the handle, which cases the knife is hollow plastic. The ones that were shipped to me were damaged, and I could easily see how cheap the plastic is surrounding the knife. One bad move and you would be left without a handle - just a long piece of metal. I wasn't expecting $300 knives for this purchase, but with this plastic casing these were overpriced. This would have been a good buy for about $45.
