Knives good, Way Delivered Bad!
587460
This was a gift for my spouse.  It arrived well before expected.  The one problem I had is that it was not placed within another box.  Someone slapped a shipping label on the knife set box and simply sent it out directly.  So when it arrived at my front door...viola no surprise there at all.  One Christmas present ruined!  I was NOT HAPPY!!!  Yes, we may be adults, but it still was Christmas for goodness sakes!
The set, itself is quite nice.  It's functionality is definitely everything it was  advertise it to be and maybe even more.  I am more than satisfied with the knife set.
I was very excited about the sale price  for such a high quality set of knives.  I guess I should have read what the set contained more closely, however, as when it was opened I found it did not contain a bread knife, something we use frequently in our home.  I've never known a knife set not to contain one.  Oops, my blunder.  :(  Of course as it says under the lid, I can always purchase one to complete the set.

Beautiful knives, but what I got was a little different to what I ordered, with 3 of the 8 knives being different!

The yellow santoku knife was replaced with a pale pink hollow-ground santoku knife. I'd deliberately purchased the hollow-ground santoku knife separately so that I didn't miss out on it, now I've got 2. If I'd known the yellow one would have been switched I wouldn't have ordered the extra one and saved money.

The yellow citrus knife was replaced with the cheese knife.

The deep blue slicing knife was replaced with the purple sandwich knife. I don't see the point in having a bread knife as well as a sandwich knife in the set. I will have to find and purchase the slicing knife separately now.

Disappointed that I didn't receive exactly what was ordered hence the 4-star rating, otherwise I'd put a 5.

Quality knifes but I paid extra to have it shipped on Saturday and the box was basically already open and the whittlers kit was also open, the packaging was horrible and Im surprised something wasn't broken. Otherwise Im happy.

These knives were delivered before expected due date and let me tell you, they are unbelievable!!  The only problem is everyone in the family wants one and now I have to order more!!

These were purchased as a gift for Christmas. They have not been used yet. The packaging was a bit weird in that within  the factory box, some of the knives were not in their protective cardboard sleeves, and some were not even in the clear plastic pouches. Makes me wonder how the box was handled at the factory, warehouse, seller's location or in shipping.

Also, the photo looked to me like the steak knives were serrated. The are not. The edges on all the knives look to be quite sharp, and the knives themselves look to be good quality. Time will tell. If they don't live up to expectations based on the good reviews I read I will update.

I can't say that they are good or bad. They were delivered dull as dull could be so I haven't been able to carve with them. I'm still looking for someone to show me the correct way to sharpen these knives. I will have to post a review after I have been able to put them to use. As of right now I'm very disappointed.

Great knives, but HIGHLY DECEPTIVE DESCRIPTION. The title says '8pc set' - this DOES NOT MEAN 8 KNIVES! I found this out the hard way and I am not happy, and this should be CLARIFIED in the description!!!

Update after just over a month of minimal use, and the handles have already begun to deteriorate. My original 3 Star rating is now down to 2 Stars. While the knives perform well, if the entire product cannot hold together for more than a month then the product is WORTHLESS!

I first got these knives they were so sharp I love them but within a couple of months they started getting really Dull VERY DULL so I called Ronco and said I'd like to send1or 2knives back  well they said about 3 bucks each.

BIG RIP OFF!!!!

The knife is great!  Very sharp and useful.  I ordered it on Dec 10 and didn't get it until Dec 24 when it was promised by the 16th.  Oh well.

BUYERS BEWARE! They look nice but quality is terrible, par only to the poor service of the Manufacturer/Distributor. When I opened the original package the clear plastic base was shattered in the corners which hold it in place. I was able to glue it but you can notice the broken plastic base. Then, the first time I used the 8" utility knife, it broke in half, cutting an onion no less! (See photos). Immediately, I contacted the seller who gave me the distributor phone number that provides the warranty. The quest started... Contact their service agent, explain the problem, submit copies on original order, invoice, receipt and photos of the damage articles. Once they had the information, they advised me that they will replace the DEFECTIVE merchandise after I paid shipping and handling charges. Bottom line: buy something that looks good in the listing, but may arrive broken. Then, the knives may brake upon their first use. Lose valuable time trying to correct their mistake to find out that you have to pay again. And by the way, they will only replace the items that were broken, not the whole set. If within the warranty period 2 or 3 knives brake, you end up paying shipping and handling 2 or 3 times. MAKE YOUR OWN CONCLUSIONS ABOUT IF IT'S WORTH BUYING!  ps/after reading some other reviews that share the same experience, be careful, they may be dangerous!

The knives are really good, we treat them really nice. One of them broke, contacted the seller for a replacement and I haven't revived a reply yet. Poor customer service.

I ordered 2 sets of these olive handled knives, but only got 1 olive set and 1 non-olive set.  Considering other reviews that mention some sets not having all 4 knives in them, this paints a very poor picture of the seller's organization.  As for the knives, they're OK, they do the job.  When compared to other knives in this price point, they are good and I am happy with them.  When compared to Opinel pocket knives, they fall short of my expectations.  All the edges had burrs on them.  I would purchase again, but not from this reseller.

so the knife was indeed sharp as I cut myself on it as it came out of the box. Which the packaging could have been better as in my pictures you can see where the knifes edge was up. There was no way to tell the orientation of the blade as it was coming out of a knife guard or something would be nice.  As my mother told me after though, I suppose you have to follow the 2% rule and be 2% "sharper" than the object you are working with.

Knife is 5/5
Amazon handled complaint well. I didn't necessarily want anything just maybe they should idiot proof the packaging a little better.

The knives cut like knives, but...
The knife itself is very loose from the handle. It rattles around. I'm constantly worried that the knife will separate from the handle resulting in me cutting myself. Not impressed with the quality and of course, I cannot return them or replace them because I missed the window by a week.

Buyer beware!

Nice knives for price terrible carry case though! Would not use  to transport! Only buy for knives not the case

What a great looking knife only to be ruined by either poor packaging or by shipping a previously returned knife. The blade grind was also wavy and the blade was not centered in the handle. Bummer because it seems like a nice knife with a good weight to it. Not high enough quality for the cost.

The knife I received had a straight blade instead of a turned up skinning blade.  I bought them as gifts and did not have time to return them.  Very disappointed to say the least.  The knifes I received were good knives just not the type I wanted.
