This set is priced much lower than the single "Wusthof Classic 3-1/2-Inch Paring Knife". Does it have the same qualiity?

These knives seem to be of the same quality as other wusthof knives I have. Which by the way, they are great to work with.

Absolutely, the only diff that I've seen May be in the handles and even they're better than others

I'm not sure about the exact same quality, but I purchased these over 6 ninths ago and they are still sharp and work great!

I don't know. I love the knife, had another which got "lost", so replaced it. It is my favorite. Look it up on a cutco siteis my recommendation.

I will add that, while the knife is certainly lighter than many of the quality German knives, it is by no means 'cheap feeling' or 'too light'. The first time I picked up this knife I immediately noticed the solid, quality feel.

Yes that's a bargain price retail is over $400 as you can see other sellers price point. Amazon has but they have a 1-4 month shipping lead time. We are able to ship out tomorrow. It's a great set of knives hopefully you will be able to obtain one soon.

No difference from the specs but only in price and name. There maybe an additional discount for the survival knife. (Not an expert in knives...just like the BG line for quality and price.)

Well, I'm not sure what classic refers to in this instance, the set I have the steak knives have a handle of brushed metal, while the other, larger knives have a handle very much like the picture shows. What I do know about this set is it is, without a doubt, the best set of knives I've ever owned! The knives are sharp, weighted perfectly in your hand, attractive to sit on the counter with a great assortment included. In my opinion, you won't go wrong with this set. I've been extremely pleased. However, as for the original question, I'm afraid I don't definitively know the answer. Season's Greetings!

My order didn't come so I don't know the quality and feature of this Swiss knife. Maybe you can ask another one. Sorry I can't help.

Doesn't seem to be much difference in any of those respects. They are all great knives. For the price they are actually exceptional. I had purchased three to see in person, keep the one i liked best and gift the other two. I ended up choose the color I liked bestt..... That's what it came down to, because they were all great knives.

Yes, they are both the exact same knife. Remember that the handle on this knife is very big. You might not like it if you have small hands.

There is an 8 inch Chef's knife #31071, a 5 inch serrated utility knife #31070, and a 4 inch paring/utility knife #31070. I know the last two numbers are the same but it is exactly what is printed on the blade. The paring/utility knife is a bit larger than our other two paring knives which we prefer. These are the Zwilling JA Henckels made in Germany and are awesome. They are NOT the cheaper J.A. Henckels International ones. If you have never owned knives such as these I strongly suggest you buy a sharping steel to keep the edges straight. They stay sharp for a LONG time and are hard to sharpen because of the steel so we don't even bother with it anymore. Once every year or so we take them all and have them sharpened and at $2 per knife.

First of all there ar two different sets one has a black handle and the more expensive one is all steel, both are very good and stay very sharp, on the box it does not show the two 3" paring knife, or plastic juice extractors, be careful these knifes can cut through frozen meat.

I dont know.. But if u dont har a speedsafe kershaw, get it. And if u do, then get it anyway. I dont really buy high end knives. Rather, i buy high value "beaters" that can see REAL use.

I don't think they are the same, bit I don't know what the differences are. I have had these knives for years and they a still perfectly sharp. I don't see why they wouldn't suit a professional kitchen. I prefer these over my wusthof knives I paid triple for.

The blades are very thin and light, much thinner and lighter than my traditional chef knife. I use mine on a maple butcher block and only have to hone them about once every 3 months. Not all high carbon steel is created equally. Would I choose these over a Wusthof Chef Knife at the same price? Probably but it is a personal preference based on look and feel. Both are quality knives and would preform well.

Actually I own both knives and they are all about the same and will do the job equally. Both are the same size blade same thickness same durability. The only noticeable difference is in the color of the handle. I always have one or the other in my vehicle at all times. It's an extremely useful tool.

Gorham Ribbon Edge 89-piece. Mine as purchased from this listing Jan 2014 are stamped Made in Vietnam on the back. I have had 8 place settings of the original in this pattern for many years and use daily. I don't think the quality of this set is quite as good as the original. But for the price and this is what is available, it is adequate to add some extra place settings to mine. I was a little disappointed that the cocktail forks are 3-tine design and in my opinion nothing special, but those weren't pictured. I also have an original hostess set from the Golden Ribbon Edge pattern that is also higher quality than the pieces here. My GRE butter knife is a hollow handle, this one is flat handle.

If you are able to get for $12.99, DO IT (and please email me at lmbates219@aol.com to tell me what site!!!!!). I was one of the lucky ones that got it for $12.99, and it is an AWESOME set! I went back to buy more for family members, and the price had gone up to $99 (which is actually reasonable for this set, but I'm way too cheap to pay that kind of money for knives!) Anyways, definitely worth it!!!
