Calphalon LX Series 15-Piece Knife Set Review

First off I ran across Calphalon brand knifes by chance.Just happens Im in a store and I need 6in utility knife.I look over several knives,choose calphalon 6in. contemporary.Knife looked ok,price more than anything made it my choice.I had never heard of this brand before.After using this knife I noticed the qaulity was very very good.I liked it so much,I decided to buy the whole contemporary set.These knifes are better than knifes I paid 3x more for.After using the contemporary set for a couple months I purchased the complete LX series,and I love them.Excellent product,fantastic price.

Chicago Cutlery Insignia 12-Piece Knife Block Set Review

This knife block set is great for the average home cook!I use it all the time and each knife works well.The kitchen scissors is especially handy, and the knife sharpener is convenient.The wooden block looks really nice next to our wood cutting board.To keep these knives looking their best, try not to wash them in the dishwasher very often or the black handles will fade a bit.

Mundial Solid Wood In-Drawer Knife Storage Tray, Small Review

This holds long shallow blades (like a serrated, bread knife) ok, but a standard 8 inch Western chef's knife, or a Japanese Santoku, flops over in the slot and falls out because the blade slots are too wide and too shallow.Obviously, knives falling out of the holder and banging around in the drawer is not the best solution.

It looks nice, and I expect that it would last a long time, but since this item fails at the one thing it's intended to do, I can't rate it higher than one star.

Chicago Cutlery 18-Piece Insignia Steel Knife Set with Block and In-Block Sharpener Review

These are our daily use knives, particularly the paring knife, and steak knives. We've owned them about four years.

They are beautiful, clean up well, but occasionally do need to be polished when water or rust spots appear. We don't dishwasher the chefs or carving knife, but we do dishwasher all of the other knives.

Stainless steel doesn't sharpen to as keen of an edge as some other high carbon steel knives, but then the high carbon knives discolor more readily. That is the trade-off.

As a result, for heavy veg prep, we'll grab the Global chefs knife. For raw meat, we prefer the Shun. At the dinner table. for roast or turkey carving, the Henckles outperforms the included knife.

The scissors come apart for easy dish-washing and sanitizing and cut chicken bone with some effort. They stay sharp though, we've assaulted many a double walled cardboard box with them and haven't deemed it necessary to sharpen them yet. The honing steel is about all it takes.

In hind sight, while we've collected particular knives for particular work thus obviating the need for the two largest knives in the set, we'd still buy this just to have a matching counter top set.
