Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kershaw 9900 Series 7-Piece Stainless-Steel Cutlery Set with Bamboo Block
Customer Review: These knives are Stamped, not Forged
Summary: 2 Stars
These knives get 2 stars for being priced like a forged knife set when they are actually stamped (lower quality).
Knives come in two types. Stamped or Forged. Stamped knives are made by stamping out the shape of the blade from a piece of sheet metal.
Forged knives are made by heating metal and pounding it into shape. The blade on a forged knife can get thicker as it merges into the handle, and really take on any shape.
Forged knives are undisputadly better. The metal is stronger, and the blade is FAR less likely to snap because it's tapered and thicker in the handle. Forged knives are also generally more expensive. The problem with this Kershaw set is not just that it's stamped. Stamped knife sets are great choices for people on a budget. But the problem is that this Kershaw knife set is priced like a forged set.
Don't be duped. Go look at Henckels or Wusthof. They have some small sets in this same price range that are forged, and are much higher quality.
For example - Amazon has "J.A. Henckels 7-pc. Professional Knife Set" which is forged, and MUCH higher quality for less than one hundred $. Or consider "Chicago Cutlery Walnut Forged 9-Piece Block Set" also on Amazon, also for less than a hundred $. You'd get much higher quality with either of those options. Don't be fooled by the "retail price" listed.
