Do the knives have plastic handles, as pictured? This makes it easier for me to grip. Thank you!

Yes they are I have also the ones that are completely stainless steel and these with the black handle has a better grip

Yes, the handles are plastic and they have grooves for better handling. These are the best knives..I've had only one for years and I just bought a set for each of my daughters for Christmas! They stay sharp forever!!!!

I can't help you with the handles (they are constructed very well) but I can say these are the best steak knives for the price. Very sharp. I use them as pairing knives as well. Highly recommended.

No, they are steel with a colored coating. They have so far been very good knives.

They certainly are stainless and seem to be steel. That is the best answer I can give. I do love the way they fit in the hand and are as sharp as a razor. I am very happy with them, whatever they are made of.

I have used these knives for years. I do put them in the dishwasher and the only problem I have is that the handles tarnish. It doesn't affect them in any other way. Enjoy.

The ones I have used so far are completely smooth. The edges aren't sharp but they are thin plastic so I guess they could be, it would all depend upon your definition of sharp. I have had no problem with them other than I wish the handles were a little longer.

Yes. These are terrific knives. I bought a second set, I was so pleased with the first set. They are sharp, and remain sharp, so be careful. No problem in the dishwasher. They come out clean and fine.

I think I remember sometime back seeing a video on how these were made. I think the handles are dipped into the plastic and allowed to cool. I wouldn't remove them because I value their comfort grip. However, you could take a sharp knife and with the tip, run it the length of the rubber grip and just peal it off.

Hi Deanna , No the handles aren't cast iron but are mild steel which is better. cheers Dave

I chop and slice every day on one or more of them, using quality steel honed cutlery. I occasionally see small traces of knife edges, but nothing as you describe. I also put them in the bottom of my dishwasher on normal cycle and they have held up well.

No the set has somewhat of a brushed handle. We are very happy with the Rada knives

The knives appear to be full tang. In fact the underside of handle has a large amount of the tang which you grip. I've had my set for a year now and I don't have any regrets. I do not wash mine in the dishwasher even though you could, the knives are to nice for that.

My other Henckels knives have nice, smooth hard plastic (polypropylene) handles. These also are plastic but it are not as smooth, don't have the same hard feeling and lack the rounded corners. They are just generally cheaper feeling.

The one I ordered had a wood handle pictured and that's what I received. I think you'd be happy with any of the Mora knives. This is my first one, but at these prices, it won't be my last!

Actually, they are quite nice. There is enough texture to get a great grip on it. The metal is VERY comfortable. I have other Benchmades with G10 and other non-metal that are absolutely horrible to hold, and hurt your hand.

Unfortunately no. The handles have plastic on the undersides. Otherwise, they're absolutely fantastic.

I don't know because I sent them back without looking at the knives. They were mostly black handles and the reason I got them was because of the different colors that it was supposed to be
