Quality that every amateur cook needs., January 6, 2009

This review is from: Furi Rachael Ray Gusto-Grip 6-Piece Bamboo Knife Block (Kitchen)

First off, this knife set is great because there are only 6--not 10 or 15 or 20--just 6 knives. And that's really all you need (read Anthony Bourdain's "Kitchen Confidential" and you'll learn that most professional cooks only use a few knives to complete their many and varied cooking tasks). Also, the knives are petite yet solid. No hefting a slab of tempered steel just to chop parsley. Nope. These combine the perfect balance of strength AND lightness. As far as aesthetics, their orange handles are flashy (in a good way) and the bamboo block is attractive and slender, which is another advantage of the set only including 6 pieces. Buy them and enjoy them!

These knives are wonderful. I have had them for a couple months now and they still cut through everything like butter!! I have yet to sharpen them as they are still very sharp. I researched a lot of knives before buying because I wanted good knives that would last, however I did not want to go broke. I love this set because it does not come with a bunch of knives that you will never use! I also love the handles, as they are small, easy to grip and do not slip in your hands. This is a great product and I would highly reccomend these to anyone looking for good quality kitchen knives without paying the high price!
