Proper care is essential when using ANY high quality ustensil, and when these knives are sharpened regularly, and cleaned properly, they will perform beautifully. You will LOVE them, I do! 14 of 16 people found the following review helpful: This review is from: Rachael Ray Furi FUR863 Furi Gusto-Grip 3-Piece Antimicrobial Set (Kitchen) I bought these in 2008 in my quest to find good knives at an affordable price. While they looked and felt great in my hands, I was soon disappointed by their performance. As soon as I got them, I eagerly cleaned them and got to cooking. I found them to be extremely dull! Quite shocking for a pair of brand new knives. So, I had to sharpen them myself. Sadly, this was a frequent task of mine as they seemed to go dull rather quickly.
The worst part for me was the fact that the larger of the two knives cracked - right near the handle in the metal itself! I've never had a knife crack in the metal, so I was quite surprised.

They were a FREE gift along with my R Ray pan set! Can't be free! However, when I got them, I realized just how great they are, and I would not have been upset if I'd had to pay for them! The wooden box is SO nice & sturdy, you won't be throwing it away. Initially I thought I'd only be really using the larger knife, but I find myself grabbing the small knife instead of a paring knife many times. The silicone handles make for very safe use! You won't worry about it slipping out of your hands. . I absolutely love it! I highly recommend it to anyone who cooks. Her products shows you y Rachel is one of the Top Chefs . Excellent knife set, you'll love it. |
