 Excellent Knives! January 7, 2010

They Rust in the Dishwasher October 26, 2009

I looked long and hard for a good set of reasonably priced knives and settled on this set. Although I love the weight and the professional quality of the set I am very disappointed with the way they rust if washed in the dishwasher - especially if you have a very hot dry cycle. Because family members sometimes forget to wash them by hand I have to clean them with CLR to get the rust stains off. Be aware that if you have hard water the handles will whiten over time unless washed by hand. As previously stated they do have to be sharpened frequently but it takes only a few seconds and the sharpener comes with the set.

The knives were delivered on time, everything was there and undamaged. The box was a bit banged up, but not enough to lose points over.
The knives themselves are very nice, cut unbelievably well, pleasantly balanced and easy to grip. Calphalon products are always of wonderful quality and these are no exception.
My only regret is that I did not buy two sets, as this one was purchased as a gift and now I want one.
 Like it, but a bit disappointed April 3, 2009

I purchased a single Calphalon knife (the 7" Santoku) from a local store to try this brand, as I had not used it before. I LOVED the Santoku knife, and even though it's recommended that you sharpen the knives before each use, I did not do it, just to see how long it would hold its edge. The one knife past the test w/flying colors, only having to sharpen once every 6 or 7 uses. So, I decided to purchase the complete set. I've had the set now for about a month, and I'm here to tell you that I've had to sharpen each and every knife EVERY TIME before I use them. The knives work wonderfully, when they are sharpened, but they DO NOT hold the edge for more than a single use. Needless to say, I am disappointed. The set is very attractive and it will look great on your counter, but be prepared to sharpen, sharpen, sharpen...

I recommend this product to anyone who is shopping for a knife set. I have been buying $50-$75 knife blocks for the past 10 years. I have wasted my money. I never wanted to spend a lot on knives. I wish I would have purchased this set a long time ago. Their are sharp and heavy. I have never had such a great set before. Pay the extra money and it will be worth it.
