Are the knives hollow?

Not to my knowledge. I just went to my drawer and picked a knife up to check. It feels too heavy and sturdy to be hollow. They are heavy weighted towards the back. Hope this helps.

No, they are just decorative and dull, though they can be sharpened as the steel is rather thick.

No--they are solid. This is not a lightweight cheapie set of cutlery. They are well made and nicely designed. Use mine daily. Oneida means quality!

Yes, the knives are one piece. Good quality too for the price in my opinion.

Yes they're hollow, they are the same as a stir stick at a bar. Maybe a mm or 2 wide

No, not hollow - very well made and sturdy. We bought more to give us service for 12.

I don't find the handle thin, but they are different in that they are rounded rather than flat handles like most cutlery. Bigger hands! Hmm I can't answer that! I'm happy I bought them. They are unusual and I'm drawn to things that are different.

It's hollow, they're pretty much always hollow. It is a thick-gauge steel though, so no worries, it should handle a reasonable weight...

I'm not sure. I just opened it and gave it to my kids. they are not bulky, so i'd assume they are hollow

No they are not hollow. Think of this pan as a cute muffin pan rather than small hard shell oreshki. I tried doing the oreshki method , where you squeeze the dough between two stacked pans, didn't work as I wanted them too -because they were too big. Then I did them like korzinochki, they just fell apart because they were once again too big. Hope this helps , good luck!

Yes it is hollow but not openable without a saw. It is still working perfectly after a year!!

I think they would be. They are good quality knives that seem to hold an edge fairly well. Plus, they have an appealing look.

no they aren't, but there is a serrated knife for breads and meats. It wouldn't matter, this is a great knife set and sharp as all get out, (be careful).. I have had no problems with them whatsoever. They sharpen easy too because it comes with one in the butcher block that houses the knife set. I highly recommend this product!

Yes, hollow but pretty narrow. You could get some tinder and maybe a very small striker in it.

I'll be blunt, not a chance. They will be crushed in my opinion. They are hollow. Hope this helps.

Yes it is hollow. My dog has chewed it up quite a bit, but it still retains its shape. However, the handle had been destroyed.

No. They have the correct "edge" on them, but they are painted and you will need to sharpen them yourself.
