Amazon.com Review
Any person that has ever tried to slice the golden crust of a baguette with a paring knife, or to peel an apple with a chef's knife, knows the importance of stocking a wide variety of cutlery in the kitchen. A single recipe may require four or five different knives to cut, dice, and slice with efficiency and ease. To cover this wide gamut, Ginsu offers a new comprehensive cutlery set. From the International Traditions cutlery line, the 14-piece set comes equipped with a 3-1/2-inch paring knife, 4-1/2-inch utility knife, 5-inch boning knife, 8-inch slicer, 8-inch chef's knife, 8-inch bread knife, six 4-1/2-inch steak knives, kitchen shears, and knife block. With this wide variety of blades, the set makes a wonderful housewarming gift for a young family establishing their first household.

The blade of each knife was forged from Japanese 420 series stainless steel with full tang for increased balance and permanence. The hygienic stainless-steel construction resists rusting, staining, and corrosion. The craftsmen at Ginsu employ a specialized Symmetric Edge technology, notching matching serrations on both sides of the blade for enhanced precision and smoothness for left- and right- handed users alike. The balanced two-dimensional serration eliminates the need for sharpening these knifes. Stainless-steel handles are curved to provide an ergonomically-friendly hold for chefs. The knife block features sturdy hardwood construction to protect knives and permit quick access while cooking. For cleaning convenience, the knives are dishwasher- safe. Ginsu covers the set with a limited lifetime warranty. The knife block measures 8-1/2 by 6 by inches. The set weighs 9 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

5 out of 5 stars Incredible deal   November 24, 2009
Jaden P. Brulotte (Enfield, NH USA)
These knives were an incredible deal, and after owning them for a few months, I am impressed. They are very sharp and precise, and the weight on them is perfect. Very sturdy. I looked around for quite a while for a good set of knives before buying these, and I would buy the same ones again... A lot of bang for your buck!

I ordered these recently, and have had them for one month. I already have to send back one of the knives due to a loose handle, and the kitchen shears, which are already falling apart.

I followed the instructions on the care of these knives, and have not put any of them in the dishwasher. One of the reasons why I purchased these was on account of the great reviews they received. I would not recommend these, and if I were under the 30 day deadline, I would return the entire set.

I purchased an expensive set of Chicago Cutlery a couple years ago and was so disappointed as I was not able to keep an edge on it sharp enough to do the job. I bought a 14 piece set of Ginsu Knives for a fraction of the cost and they are the best knives I have ever used in my over 60 years.
