Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Ginsu 14-Piece Stainless Steel Knife Block Set, with Black Block
Customer Review: Affordable and high quality
Summary: 5 Stars
When I was searching for a new, sharp knife set I originally was leaning towards Henkal's or Chicago Cutlery. Luckily I happened upon this set on Amazon before I made a purchase. I figured for less than half of what the others cost it wouldn't hurt to give Ginsu a try. The stainless steel and black go beautifully with my kitchen. The knives are very sharp. I didn't realize how dull my old ones had gotten! I wash these in the dishwasher and haven't seen any rust spots yet - I just make sure to wipe off the blade before I put it in the dishwasher and use the heated dry cycle. I have already recommended these to my mom and several friends.Customer Review: After owning them awhile, a few more thoughts...
Summary: 3 Stars
1)The magnets pull out of the block. Since the knives are supposed
to be stainless they should not be magnetic. But they are.
2)They get little rust spots if not dried ultra-carefully after
each use. Once again: stainless(?).
3)The one I use regularly has dulled to the point it wouldn't cut
deep-dish pizza last night. Since these lack "full-tang construction"
pressing down hard with just the handle seems inadvisable. Thus,
I extended my index finger on the fat part of the back of the blade
for extra leverage through the crust. The result was a bad cut on my index
fingertip FROM THE BACK OF THE BLADE. No other knife has ever done this
to me and I am quite old. Beware.
