Furi Rachael Ray Gusto-Grip 3-Piece Knife Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I received this set of knives for Christmas 2006 and the larger knife came defective. And since they advertise a "limited lifetime warranty" I figured I go straight to the manufacturer for a replacement. Bad idea. I contacted them in early January 2007 and no one got back to me. Then in early February I contacted them again. When I called they told me to email them describing the issue. I did and after a couple weeks and a lot of frustration I called back. This time I was told to send an email. Oh, what a surprise. I explained that I already sent an email and I was told that they were going through some changes and I was assured that someone would respond to my email this time. So I sent yet another email describing the problem. But unlike the previous emails, this one received a response. The email asked that I submit their return authorization form, which I completed and faxed back. Over two months later and I'm still wondering when this knife will be replaced.
So what good is a "warranty" if you can't get in touch with the company so they can honor their warranty?

Shun DM0712 Classic 7-3/4-Inch Chinese Chef's Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've been cooking for over 15 years (I'm not that old), and I grew up in a Chinese family. A Chinese Chef knife is exactly that, it is not a cleaver, despite the resemblance. This is the one knife a Chinese chef will use in the kitchen for just about everything.
Trust me, I've tried cleavers, they are not a replacement for a real Chinese Chef knife. I've also used many of the Chinese Chef knives that you can pick up in many Chinatown shops and Asian specialty shops. (BTW, I'm from the largest Chinese community outside of Asia, so we are not lacking the "goods").
The Shun classic....is amazing. It is perfectly weighted, and the grip is fantastic. I can grip the knife with confidence even when wet or dealing with meats.
The blade is the sharpest I've used of _any_ Chinese Chef knife. The first time I used it, I was mystified why it took so much effort to cut (it was supposed to be sharp, wasn't it?). The reason was, I had already sliced through everything without noticing and was already pressing on the cutting board!
One problem is that it also cuts into my cutting board with relative ease. If I don't remove the blade straight up, I hear a sound which makes me think the thin edge is being knicked. However, so far, no real problem, the edge is still perfect.
I have still been a bit wary to use it to hack at bones, but I think that fear will go away. (When I say Chinese chef's use it for everything, I mean everything).
I don't care about a Damascus steel look, but I can attest that the surface has no problems with releasing food. Slides off easily.

Shun Ken Onion DM0502 7-Inch Santoku Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Shun Ken Onion 7-in Santoku is perhaps the best knife I have ever held in my hand.
For years, my knife collection consisted of assorted Henckels 4-star and Wusthof Grand Prix knives, which I found to perform very well. However, I recently became curious about the recent hype over santoku knives and what qualities, if any, set the santokus apart from chef's knives.
Given the Shun reputation, I decided to try several of their santoku knives. My evaluation of them was primarily based on weighting and feel. I tried the Shun Classic 4" and 7" santokus, as well as the Ken Onion 7" santoku. I found the Classic 4" to be surprisingly unbalanced and would therefore -not- recommend it. The Classic 7" santoku felt good, and has a weighting that is on par with the good weight distribution of Henckels 4-star knives. However, the Ken Onion 7" absolutely blew the others away in terms of weighting, balance, and control.
The Ken Onion 7" Santoku has a superbly weighted feel that truly sets it apart from other knives I have tried. It is noticeably heavier than German and Shun Classic knives (chef's and santokus). While some prefer the lighter weight of other santokus (lighter due to the thinner blade), I find that the weight of the Ken Onion santoku provides superior control for chopping and dicing that cannot be achieved by a lighter knife. The blade of the santoku is already thinner than the blade of a chef's knife, so because of that, you still get the greater precision of the santoku blade without sacrificing control.
The balance of this knife is superb. It is unlike any other large knife that I have held. This knife has become the one that I always reach for, and my Henckels chef's knife has become obsolete. Most things can be done using a santoku instead of a chef's knife, I've found. In fact, it is better for chopping vegetables and works well on meat. (However, I still recommend a carving knife for thin cuts of meat.) My other knifes, while very good by general knife standards, just don't feel as good as the Ken Onion 7" santoku.
The hollow ground features of this knife will cost you a bit more than the straight blade santoku, but it does keep vegetables from sticking as much. It does not, by any means, prevent sticking altogether, but there is an improvement. It is hard to say whether it is worth the additional cost -- it really is a personal preference.
Finally, this knife is gorgeous. Its form and function are unparalleled -- the Ken Onion 7" santoku is not only a pleasure to use, but a masterpiece to the eye, as far as knives are concerned. The handle fits extremely comfortably into my smaller hand, and I have been told, repeatedly, that this knife works for both rightys and leftys.
While I cannot say say that this knife is a bargain, its performance is superb and I truly enjoy using it. Many of the German knives or the Shun Classics will work very very well for the typical chef, but Ken Onion knives are great for collectors and avid chefs. The quality is outstanding -- made using a technique employed by japanese swordsmiths. The stiffeness of the blade is remarkable compared to others that I have tried.
Most of the cooking process deals with preparation, and a good knife is perhaps the best investment that you can make. Ken Onion knives make prep time so much more pleasurable that it may easily be worth the additional dollars. I assure you that you, too, would be proud to own one of these.

Made from VG-10 high-carbon steel, Shun knives are specially constructed to be harder, less brittle, but also more flexible than traditional steel formulations. The VG-10 core is clad with 16 full layers of SUS410 high-carbon stainless steel on each side, for a total of 33 layers. These layers not only protect the VG-10, they create an exquisitely detailed surface reminiscent of Damascus or pattern-forged steel, the kind once used for Samurai swords. As a result, the knives are simply stunning to look at--much like antique Damascus knives but without their tendency to rust. An additional benefit includes the slight patterning, which helps slice rather than crush delicate foods and keeps cut food from sticking to the blade.
Designed by Ken Onion, one of the world's top knife designers, this 7-inch Shun Santoku knife combines the qualities of a vegetable cleaver and a chef's knife for powerful yet precise chopping and slicing. The knife features a handle made from ebony-colored PakkaWood, a fused blend of hardwood veneers imbued with waterproof resin that combines the warmth and traditional look and feel of wood with the strength and durability of plastic. The arched handle and stainless-steel angled bolster offers extra clearance over the cutting board for safety and extra slicing power, plus prevent the knife from twisting or slipping, even when hands are wet. Furthermore, the knife comes in attractive Shun packaging--great for gift giving. Like all Shun Ken Onion cutlery, the knife should be washed by hand and dried completely. The knife measures 12 by 2-1/2 by 3/4 inches and carries a lifetime warranty when purchased directly from Amazon.com.

Shun DM0715 Classic 2-1/2-Inch Bird's Beak Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have a lot of experience using various brands of kitchen cutlery, including some from relatively obscure Japanese manufacturers, and I truly believe that this is the best bird's beak knife on the market. The most important thing in selecting a bird's beak knife is sharpness, and Shun knives are certainly among the very sharpest on the market today. The only comparable knife that I have used is the Global bird's beak knife, but this one has a much more comfortable handle than the Global does. Additionally, the Shun bird's beak knife is balanced better than the Global, and significantly sharper than similar knives from Wusthof and Henckels. There is also a Shun Stainless bird's beak knife, with the only difference being the stainless steel handle. Although not every kitchen absolutely needs a bird's beak knife, I highly recommend this one for those that do want one for peeling tough vegetables such as turnips and for specialized decorative garnishing.

Wusthof Ikon 3-1/2-Inch Paring Knife, Blackwood Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As Wusthof official statements put it, the Ikon Blackwood is the jewel of Wusthof. It is the most expensive line of all Wusthof cutlery lines.
In short summary,
Pros: Decent stainless steel grade, excellent reduced bolster design, excellent ergonomic handle, good weight, beautiful wood handle, an overall attractive knife
Cons: High cost (when not on sale), the knife balance may shift too much to the handle for a paring knife.
The Classic Ikon series and the Ikon Blackwood series are essentially the same, except for the handle, where the Classic Ikon handles are made with hard plastic and Ikon Blackwood handles are made from African Blackwood (Grenadill wood). Currently, the Ikon Blackwood paring knife is being sold at $80 and the Classic paring knife is $60. Both are forged knives made with a good quality steel blade, an ergonomic handle, a full tang, a reduced (heel-less) front bolster and an additional bolster at the end of the handle butt. Despite the marketing statements claiming it is a high carbon stainless steel knife, it isn't. X50CrMoV15 is the stainless steel grade here, so it has 0.5% carbon and that is not considered high by today standard. In contrast, VG-10 (used in Shun Classic knives and Tojiro knives) has 0.95%-1.0% carbon and SG-2 (used in Shun Elite) has 1.25-1.45% carbon. Nevertheless, X50CrMoV15 makes a tough knife with good corrosion resistant. In other words, the edge rolls easily compared to most Japanese knives, but this steel has good resistance against chipping and rusting.
What I really appreciate about the Ikon line is its reduced bolster. The traditional full bolster which extends the entire knife heel makes sharpening difficult. Ikon solves this problem nicely by reducing the bolster. The knife edge is fairly sharp out-of-the-box compared to other knives, but it could have taken a much better edge. I sharpened it on diamond stone and then on Japanese water stones. I can vouch from my experience that the reduced bolster has made the knife much easier to sharpen. The ergonomic handle is truly ergonomic as it claims. It fits my hand nicely. The second bolster on the back of the handle shifts the center of gravity significantly toward the handle. It probably works better for larger knives, like a Chef's knife, but for a small blade paring knife, I feel it may have shifted the weight slightly much toward the handle. Still, it is not too bad and I can certainly adapt to. The African blackwood is indeed as nice Wusthof claims. It is very beautiful, smooth to touch and best of all: it really does not absorb much water. I bought this knife at $50 and am quiet happy with it. At $80-$125, which is the usual price range for this knife, I think it is high.

The paring knife is one of the most widely used tools in the kitchen.Its versatility of uses is a mainstay in any kitchen a quality parer like theIkon is a real pleasure for your small cutting needs. The WusthofIkon is culmination of all the best features of each of the Wusthof knife lines. The combined riveted handle design is combined with a contoured shape to add comfort and control.The handles are made of African Grenadill wood.African Grenadill wood is the worlds densest wood and expands and contract less than most traditional woods.These handles are hand crafted and fitted to each knife. The Ikon adds a rear bolster that acts as a counter balance when using the knife.This second bolster adds significant blade control. Ikon has a unique forward bolster as well.The forward partial bolster is designed so you can sharpen the complete length of the blade.This bolster is also curved inwards to allow your fingers greater control while holding the knife by the blade.Wusthof uses a special blend of German steel through out the whole length of the knife. The ingredients of this steel are proudly etched on each blade. Wusthof not only uses the best materials to make a fine knife,but it is also crucial that each blade is precisely tempered.This tempering allows the knife to hold its edge for an extremelylong time, yet still be able to be maintained in your home kitchen with out the need to be sent away for maintenance. Our unique compound angle is not seen in many knives.This angle tapers from the spine of the knife to the edge to allow for a sturdy, yet extremely sharp edge while it also tapers from the bolster to the tip to give the knife strength as well as flexibility. Located in "The Cutlery Capital of the World", Solingen Germany, the Wusthof factoryhistory goes back as far as 1814 when the company was listed with the Duchy of Berg. To this day, the company remains family owned.

J.A. Henckels International Forged Synergy 16-Piece Knife Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a variation of my review of the J.A. Henckels International Forged Synergy 13-Piece Knife Set. But this 16-piece set is the one I'd recommend, so here goes... My wife and I have been using the Forged Synergy knives for about 2 years, and we couldn't be happier with them. They are well made, well-balanced, have beautiful handles, a nice finish, and hold a very sharp edge--we've sliced tomatoes with all of them. If you're buying your first set of fine knives, these WILL hold up to the Henckels reputation for quality.
Now regarding what some others have said about rusting and quality, I'll just add my two cents. There is a "Forged Synergy" and a "Fine Edge Synergy" series, and the main kitchen knives in those sets are NOT the same (though the steak knives appear to be so). The forged series has a metal tine that runs all the way through the handle with the black grips riveted on. The J.A. Henckels International Fine Edge Synergy 13-Piece Block Set is totally different--see the Amazon photos and descriptions for yourself. Yes, this Forged Synergy set is also made in China (not Spain or Germany like some of the more expensive Henckels sets that are 2 to 5 times more expensive), but the quality is still excellent and should far surpass most users' expectations.
Regarding rust spots, we've had none. However, there are two main types of stainless steel: one is harder and slightly less stain resistant; the other is more stain resistant but slightly softer. That means that you give up a little stain resistance to have a knife that holds a sharper edge longer. I think that's much more important than having to clean an occasional rust spot off if it were to occur. And usually, rust spots come from cheap kitchen gadgets whose rust sticks to the stainless--not that the stainless itself is rusting.
There are only two minor faults I find with this set (that didn't stop me from buying it, however). The kitchen shears are excellent quality and cut great, but the two parts should be easily separable for cleaning purposes. You'll see this in newer shear designs, and it's not a feature that would add to the cost. Also, the black finished knife block will eventually show wear and tear from missing when inserting knives into the slots. I'd have prefered a standard maple block. Lastly, for a few dollars more, I recommend the 16-piece version of this set over the 13-piece set because you get three more knives for about the price of one more.

Combining contemporary style with great value and excellent durability, this 16-piece knife Forged Synergy set from J.A. Henckels brings a modern Asian sensibility to your kitchen with the inclusion of a santoku knife and a vegetable knife with its fine-edged, symmetric blade. This set includes the following knives: 3-inch vegetable (kudamono), 3-inch paring, 6-inch utility, 7-inch santoku, 8-inch chef, 8-inch carving, and 8-inch bread. It also comes with a set of 6 steak knives (4-1/2 inches), a 9-inch sharpening steel, and a pair of kitchen shears. All items fit neatly into a hardwood storage block with contemporary black finish.
Perfect for smaller jobs like cutting, peeling, and cleaning fruits and vegetables, the kudamono paring knife has a slim blade with center tip and hollow cutting edge, which allows air between the blade and the item you are slicing to avoid sticking to the blade and ease of slicing. And the santoku knife, which is style after the classic Japanese cook's knife, has broad blade and especially sharp cutting edge that's great for cutting fruits and vegetables.
Made from high-quality stainless steel with a satin finish, the knives also offer a molded POM handle with brushed stainless steel cap and rivets for a comfortable grip and contemporary style, full rat tail tang for balance and strength, and full bolster that provides weight and ensures safety. They're backed by a lifetime warranty against defects in material and/or craftsmanship. Handwashing with mild cleanser is recommended.

(More customer reviews)That about sums it up. These aren't "knives," they're more like razor blades. Cut through a potato...no sweat. These are just unbelivable knives. Furthermore, they are comfortable to grip, so they make all cutting chores easier.
The only problem: I've already cut myself twice, once deep enough to bleed for hours. So if you get these, be careful! Of course, that's NOT a problem with the knives; rather it's my own novice cooking ability. Provided I don't remove all my digits, I'm sure I'll get the hang of these soon enough.
No, these aren't cheap knives, but they are most definitely worth the price...fantastic buy or gift idea. Now, if only I could get Rachael here to help show me how to properly use these knives...........:>) Seriously, a terrific product!

Rada Cutlery Bagel Knife, Made in USA, Aluminum Handle (R118) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you are able to get real bagels - as opposed to the bread-like things sold in grocery stores or in the mid-West - this knife is for you. I make my own bagels, using high-gluten flour and the boiling method, and the exterior is definitely the "tough" crust of real bagels. Most bread knives had some difficulty biting into the crust and then cutting through the entire bagel.
This Rada bagel knife bit right in and was able to handle the tough bagel crust without damaging the more delicate interior. I've been using it for three years, and the knife is just as sharp as the day I got it.
I would not recommend using this knife on more delicate breads and rolls as the cutting edge is rather coarse. Rada makes a wonderful bread knife and a short bread knife that are ideal for other breads.

Shun Ken Onion Cleaver, 7-Inch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is my third Shun knife and my second Ken Onion. They come quite literally sharper than a razor in that the edge lasts longer and it unbelievably sharp. I sharpen mine about once a month. Sending to Kershaw would take way too long. Blade is heavy and very thick, great for cutting through bone (which is why I bought it) but still sharp enough to slice through bits of skin. If you want the images to remain longer clean them with a gentle toothbrush or they will come off over time. Ergo handle very comfortable to use. Also have the 7" santoku knife with same handle. Look very attractive sitting on the counter and ready for action when needed. Love it!
