Great gift for your mad wife

I like the look of the black block. More than the normal wood you see most of the time.

just stay clear of the kitchen when she's on her rag

i hope they stay sharp.

cutco brand is better

No reviews though on Amazon for these knives so who knows if they are flimsy.

I would recommend the Miracle Blade. They sell it at CVS or Amazon among other places and they are dirt cheap. Two of my siblings have had them for years and they outperform all but the super premium knife sets. They are also much safer than the super premium knife sets as they tend to cut steak and other food incredibly well, but human bone - not so well.

This set would have you on the cutting edge of culinary preporations.

Oink

pretty cheap price for a 13 knife set- don't they usually range in the 100s?

#9 thanks i was about to buy one.

I would recommend the Henckels Int'l from Target, which is the same price range. Those knives are good.

#5 is right. Cutco rules...just saw it on "how it's made" TV show. Sharpest knife in the world, as verified by outside labs. Now I can hack my fingers off in one swift cut, rather than sawing back and forth...

Good set for the college student.

#2: I like to end sentences. To start new ones where the old ones should have continued on.

#15 - you've been smoking funny cigars again?

For the price, I think you could afford to replace them in 4-5 years. So even if they don't last, it was at a good bargain price anyway.

extremely affordable if you need a block knife set and are on a budget.

This does seem like a good price on entry-level knives. Since a steel is included, I'd assume that they're real knives, not saws.

High entertainment! I went out to the Miracle Blade (suggested by #7) website, and they are nice enough to have a customer reviews page. Among the reviews was this (exerpted from a full "review"):
"I was so excited that I bought them online and went to
UPS to pick them up! When I got them, I spent all night
chopping stuff. I cut bananas in mid air, I cut leather
steel-toed boots, I even used them to cut the bottom off
of my Christmas Tree..."

This person must be a real riot to live with!
