HOSHANHO Knife Set with Magnetic Knife Holder, 6 Pieces Japanese High Carbon Stainless Steel Kitchen Knife Sets, Ultra Sharp Professional Chef Knives Sets

My wife loves this set. They're high-quality, razor sharp, well balanced, and ascetically pleasing. They feel durable and should last a long time. The price was fair, too. We would buy this set again.

Great handle, grip and weight. Very very sharp and looks great. Cuts easily through everything. Best paring knife in the drawer.

Very nice knife set, super sharp, handle is very well made. Nice weight to them

Some of the best knives i have owned. Excellent craftsmanship. Exceptionally sharp. Great feel

The great quality of the steel and handle do not make this a great paring knife. I always hesitate in choosing it over my other paring knife when about to peel fruit or vegetable. It does not feel balanced for use as a paring knife, and at first, my hand automatically moved to hold the knife like my Oshanho Japanese chef's knife and a Chinese chef's knife, with index finger and thumb at the back edge of the blade. However, by ignoring my other paring knife, this became familiar, and my hand found a comfortable hold just ahead of the back edge of the blade. If appearance is most important, I have to say that it does look good next to my chef's knife of the same series. I had given this 3 stars, but after some familiarity, and changed hold, it became useful and efficient for most paring. I can even remove potato eyes with it, by sliding my hold to near the tip.

Worth the investment. Holder great too.Ive used these knives about 2 months.Fantastic! Makes cooking prep easier with keen edge and great shape.The wood magnet holder is both handsome and effective. There was room for me to add another large knife to the set.They are very comfortable, thick enough blade to have good function, nice construction and gorgeous.So lovely that I can't help but think these came from Lothlorien. :)They were on sale for for $90 when I bought them, and first time I bought extra nice cooking ware.It was well worth it!I tossed out the mishmash drawers of mediocre blades, good to invest in this nice easy to store set.I cannot attest to its long term capabilities yet, but for now I love them, and they are nice enough to show in my sword collection instead of a kitchen. These knives are nice, i want to upgrade my kitchen to display them in.I added a picture to show how well the heavier "half cleaver" model fits in with the set on the bar.

These are the best quality knives I have owned. Very sharp out of the box. Very sturdy and tough, just the right thickness to cut whatever I need. They are hefty but not too heavy. My favorite thing is the handles. Although they are large enough for a man's hands, I have smaller hands and these are designed so that even I can easily grip them securely, and they are beautiful! The wood is polished and gorgeous! I love the blade designs too, so functional. I bought a few more extra knives from this line to complete my set. That's another thing I like-you can add on as many as you need.
