Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sabatier Stainless-Steel Balance 14-Piece Knife Block Set
Customer Review: The "Missing Knife" syndrome......
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this set (not from Amazon - unfortunately. I paid one third more money for the set) and found them to be well balanced, stylish and sharp. Yes, they are made in China, but almost everything you purchase today is made in China - realities of life. These knives are well balanced and I have had no problem handling them with my arthritic hands.As most kitchen "engineers" know knife blocks usually contain at least one empty slot available to add an additional knife of your choosing in the future...If the aesthetics of this bother you then just buy another knife and fill the slot. Also place the knives in the block with the sharp edge upward (not against the block). This will greatly contribute to retaining the knife's sharpness over time.
In my opinon this Sabitier BALANCED knife set represents another great culinary value from Amazon.
Enjoy!

Description of Sabatier Stainless-Steel Balance 14-Piece Knife Block Set
Fully forged in China of high-carbon stainless steel with hollow stainless-steel handles for weight and balance, the five kitchen knives in this set equip a cook with all the cutting edges needed. Six 4-1/2-inch steak knives with serrated blades and solid, mirror-finish, stainless-steel handles are also included in the set. The kitchen knives are an 8-inch chef's knife, an 8-inch bread knife, an 8-inch slicing knife, a 4-1/2-inch utility knife, and a 3-1/2-inch paring knife. To keep their edges in order, the set includes an 8-inch sharpening steel, and there's a pair of rugged kitchen shears for cutting food, flowers, and cardboard. Everything fits into the set's 14-slot wood storage block, which has one extra slot for another knife and is stained black for a striking contrast to the satin-finish kitchen knives. Smoothly shaped bolsters and contoured handles contribute safety and comfort to the kitchen knives, which are seamless for hygiene and easy cleaning. (The steak knives have a seam in their gleaming handles.) To protect blades of this quality, the knives should be hand washed. --Fred Brack What's in the Box
