Customer Review: Shock and Awe
Summary: 5 Stars
These are sharp. They are knives. They are heavy and gleam impressively. They will work.
Yes, your pretentious friends will give you crap and ask you if you sit around all day slicing cans open and practicing your karate moves. Thy will ask if they can borrow your Slap Chop. They are just jealous of your stylin' ninja moves- and that they spent several hundred dollars towards the same end. You both have knives to cut stuff up and to hang out on your countertop, gleaming like they mean business.
I never realized how dull my past knives have been, until I started unwrapping these. The first thing I cut with my new knives: myself. I don't hold that against them (or anything else that I want to keep attached to myself, for that matter.) For the record, the Santoku was the culprit. These things come in cardboard sheaths wrapped in plastic, and while I was sliding it out of the cardboard, it split the sheath and slit my fingers. We're not just talking about a scratch- I had to apply pressure, elevate, and bandage. Whoops.
So um, be careful. Sorry if that makes me sound like your mom.
All the knives in this set are serrated, except for the Santoku and the cleaver: these two knives also do not have a handy dandy spot in the knife block. That's okay, they adorn my magnetic knife strip with grace and style. The stainless utensils- eh. Let's face it, they're just window dressing, for the most part.
I haven't used the cleaver yet- the santoku has chopped the heck out of some cilantro, the bread knife whizzed through an artisan loaf with a hard crust, the steak knives whistle through your carnivorous entrees with ease, and the paring knife eviscerated an unripe pear practically by itself.
Love my new Ginsus- I am probably going to get the bonus steak knives, carving set, so my cleaver and Santoku won't be so lonely on the knife strip- I pitched my other knives.
