 Calphalon Katana September 14, 2009
Laura A. (Los Angeles, CA USA)
This is a nice set of steak knives, the only little problem was that the box came damaged. Other then that everything else was great, the knives themselves came undamaged. Normally I wouldn't have paid that much attention to the box being damaged as long as the item or items are not damaged, but seeing how these Calphalon Katana set were purchased as gift, I would have been more than happy to give a five star rating. This is time I was lucky to receive undamaged items (in this case knives), but next time how knows, because damaged boxes usually mean that the product inside might be damaged. Overall a five star rating for the knives themselves, great set I would say.
 The sharpest, coolest steak knives! May 28, 2009

These steak knives are fantastic...sharp, well-balanced, and they look great. They are the perfect compliment to the Calphalon Katana chef's knives. I only have one minor complaint -- they come in sets of 4. Four is not quite enough for entertaining at our house, and eight are too many. Still I highly recommend these knives!

Wonderful set of knives. They are incredibly sharp (I've used them to carve uncooked meat during prep). Definately worth the price

I was a bit hesitant about buying these knives as I'd read from another site a person had problems with the knives rusting quickly (they noted it happened within an hour, not that they'd left the knives in the sink overnight). However, I have a contemporary styled set of Wusthof Grand Prix II knives and need non-traditional steak knives to match. One thing that allayed these fears was Amazon's return policy. Another thing was Calphalon's lifetime warranty. Thankfully, I have had to use neither.
The black you see on the handles is a polyresin that is actually quite comfortable. It imparts some warmth to the design and offers grip not seen in items like the Wüsthof 8-Piece Stainless-Steel Steak Knife Set with Wooden Gift Box. This also gives the handle some size and makes it less dainty -- enough that you would feel secure bearing down with the blade. The blade is also very hard and cuts through even tough meats like warm butter. I have not had to use the saw tip yet. Were it not for the light weight of the knives, I may have bought the kitchen knives as well for their style.
If you like light knives you will appreciate this set as well. The tang goes all the way through the handle but I would put the balance point more near the center. My only quibble with Calphalon (and the reason for only 4 stars) is why only 4 knives? I've noticed this with other manufacturers as well. 4 knives seems like too few while 8 knives seems like too many. I'm single so 4 knives suits my needs plenty, but occasionally will have 3-5 people over for dinner. Do I try not to serve anything that requires a serious knife? Cajole guests into sharing? Pop for the extra 4 and leave 6 or 7 knives languishing for the majority of the time? Help a guy out!
Best knives ever! June 22, 2008
Chris Priest (Manchester, CT USA)
I recently purchased the Calphalon Katana series complete knife set and they are awesome. Not only are they the shapest knives I have ever owned but they look and feel great in you hand. Once I found out about the steak knives I had to have them and guess what they follow suit. They are sleek and super sharp. The serrated tip cuts through any meat like butter and the rest of the straight edge slices anthing to paper thin slices with ease. I love these knives and they are worth the investment.
