Handle is a bit short December 6, 2007 Naomi's mom (Sunnyvale, CA USA) The knife I tried seemed to slice well coming right out of the box. It is a pleasant change to cut through the meat instead of tearing at it. What I did worry about (having seen some of the other CC steak knives at retailers) is that the handle would be a bit short. Well, it is. My hands are small too (I'm only 5'0") and I compared it against my other dinner and steak knives. Oh well... it doesn't inhibit the cutting process but if you handle knives a lot you'll notice.
Best value in steak knives out there October 31, 2007 Steven E. Field (Holiday, FL) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
America's Test Kitchen rated these their best value and we can see why - the wife and I have suffered for years from horrible, cheap steak knives and just thought that was the norm. We were ready to spend $80 on a set of 4 German ones, but these were given a high review by the Test Kitchen (who we trust and has steered us to some great products over the years.) They cut beautifully and work great. True, they don't look as neat as the more expensive brands, but we don't care - the money we saved on these allowed us to get a lot of nice steaks to cut and eat :)
Great steak knives! October 17, 2007 Robert M. Bowers (Beale AFB, CA, USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
If you've been stuck with serrated steak knives, you will notice a HUGE difference in the ease of eating steaks. I bought these steak knives after being frustrated trying to slice a sirloin steak with a Kitchenaid steak knife; I'd seen them recommended by the folks at America's Test Kitchen (which is also the magazine Cook's Illustrated). WOW, what an improvement! These things go through tough meat like nobody's business. Serrated knives can rip and tear at the meat; these knives make smooth cuts with a much more pleasant look and mouthfeel.
Soft metal September 9, 2007 Cheetokhan (Gulf Coast) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I own a few other Chicago Cutlery knives that work just fine, but this set seems to be make from a much softer metal. These knives dull very quickly and when I sharpen them, they wear down extremely fast.
FABulous!!! August 24, 2007 Melanie Lynch (Annapolis, MD) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I saw these reviewed on America's Test Kitchen as rating right up there with the more expensive knives. Who needs the more expensive knives? Not only do these knives slice through meat like, well, butter, but they are comfortable in my hand AND they can be had on Amazon for roughly 1/2 of the list price. Yes, you will have to eventually have to maintain the edge and sharpen them at some point, but if you appreciate good knives that shouldn't be an issue. I am very happy with this purchase.
