Summary: Good Value
Comment: The knife set has been a good value for the price. I was a bit disappointed when I put them in the dishwasher and two of them had small rust spots, but they cleaned up well and are sharp. Not a bad deal for around $100.
Customer Rating:
Summary: blades very thin
Comment: The handles on these knives are very comfortable, and the non-serrated blades make a nice, clean slice. Unfortunately, the blades are very thin, and, in fact, the packages that I received had multiple broken knives upon arrival. (Amazon did immediately replace the broken ones.) I have found that I have to baby these knives while cleaning and storing since it is very easy to bend the tips. Too bad, because otherwise they would be perfect.

Summary: Bait and switch
Comment: Metro Kitchen sent me a MUCH cheaper set than the item pictured here. The blades we not forged, instead they were thin stamped metal (rather than widening at the base of the handle), and the blade did not even go completely through the handle. They did send me a "Gourmet Steak Block Set", however the picture they user on Amazon is not the same set, and is therefore completely misleading as to the quality. They unapologetically offered to take the item back if I PAID THE RETURN SHIPPING! I have obviously contacted my credit card company....
Your choice, but I woul NOT do business with Metro Kitchen if I were you.

Summary: Good Value Steak Knives
Comment: Treat these knives as you would your best Wustoff and you'll be rewarded. If you store these in a wooden block or case, ocassionally run the blades against the sharpening steel and hand wash and immediately dry the blades, they'll stay sharp and last for years.
If you want your cutlery to last and perform, NEVER, EVER put your knives in the dishwasher. Regardless of the price, top notch knives are not designed to be washed in a dishwasher, period. Don't be a lazy bum!

Summary: 8/12 HANDLES BROKEN
Comment: I purchased two sets of these knives for x-mas 2002. Within 3 months 6 out of twelve knives had cracks on the handles in the same place, by now 8/12 have cracks in the handles. We wash them in the dishwasher along with our other Wusthof knives and the other more expensive Wusthof knives have never had a problen. Also when washing these in the dishwasher the steak knives get rust stains on them that we have to polish by hand. I have been very dissapointed with the quality of these steak knives and will try to contact the company about the warranty.
