This review is from: Jamie Oliver Carving Set (Kitchen)
Carving set is of acceptable quality, but not the same as a high quality German made set (as far as feel, balance, finish, and knife edge out of the box). Def a couple of grades up from most lower end Chineses made knives though. Knife feels hollow, which does not give it great balance. This set is more than acceptable for occasional use, but if your carving all the time I would recommend buying a better quality German made set......But these sets usually cost at least 3 times the price !!!. I seriously dought Jamie Oliver uses these knifes in real life, only for show on TV, there def not professional knifes. I would also buy a sharperner from Amazon at the same time (great prices), so you can get and keep your knife sharp.
I would have given the product 3 stars, but with Amazon's (current) fantastic pricing at just under $28 I give this product 4 stars. I would recommend purchase for someone wanting a carving set for occasional use like Thanksgiving, the odd dinner party...Read more
