SHAN ZU Knife Sets for Kitchen with Block, Knife Block Set, Japanese Super Steel Kitchen Knife Sets with Removable Block & K133 Ergonomic Handle, Black Tortoise Genbu Series

These are fantastic and very sharp serrated knives. They fell very nice in hand and are well balanced. The weight is that of what was expected of a quality knife. We tried them on tritio and it cut through like butter. With any knife I would not place in a dishwasher, the finish I feel in durable but do not run sharp knife’s in dishwasher for many reasons. I would highly recommend and the perform better than expected and will add a wow factor to any guest joining you for dinner.

Sharp right out of the box! Longer then my old one and the handle feels perfect in my hand.

Excellent quality, n design, good shipping time.

I just received these knives today, so my long term experience with them might vary from this review. Out of the box, these are a very nice set for the cost.The pro’s: All of the 16 knives arrived in the manufacturer box. My set was well packed. All of the pieces arrived with protective knife tip plastic caps, cushion wrapped, all in individual plastic sleeves. The (heavy duty) kitchen shears were not in any of this packing described above, but were in good shape and undamaged. Each knife arrived EXTREMELY sharp. Be careful handling them out of the box. The knife block arrived in vacuum sealed plastic and was in pristine condition and really attractive.The fit and finish of the knives seems top notch. The transition seam where the wood meets the metal on each knife is smooth and perfect on each knife.The appearance of the knives and block is impressive for the money. This is a knife nice set to display. It looks first class. Very upscale.The removable steak knife block is a great idea. Not sure when it can be used in the real world, but a pretty imaginative idea.The one thing that I really like is the kitchen shears. None of the “plastic handle scissors” that come in most sets. These seem extremely heavy duty and ready to cut bones, heavy skin, and any kitchen duties that you will put it up against. (The one thing I have to mention, and mention in the con section, is that although it’s not really that noticeable, the wood used on the kitchen shears is not the same as the knives in the set. They somewhat match, but it is definitely different.)Cons: Like I stated above, each knife was individually packaged…but not the kitchen shears. That was notable, but not a big deal as they were undamaged. And, as I said, the wood on the shears differs from the wood on the knives. Matches well enough, but not exactly.I will say that the fit of the knives in the wood block is not exactly perfect. They are somewhat loose. To have the knives line up perfectly, it takes a few seconds to re-set a few of them to get them sitting identically in a row. Kind of annoying, but not a deal breaker.In conclusion, so far I’m very happy with this purchase. If these hold up in the long run with hand washes and hand drying, I’ll feel good about recommending it to everyone who asks. If you choose to purchase this set, I hope your experience is as good as mine…so far.

For the price you won’t find a better knife

My favorite fileting and boning knife! Besides it being a beautiful knife it is well balanced with a nice narrow and flexible blade which works great getting under skin or silverskin and the flexible allows the blade to track well when boning or skinning!

Well built, sturdy and very sharp knives.

I just got it and I’m very impressed it’s firm yet flexible knife probably the sharpest blade I’ve used in many years of fishing here’s to it staying that way.
