 Wonderful!Jun 18, 2003
First off, let me say that we don't eat much steak any more (cholesterol problems). We're not steak knife experts who insist on some particular type of blade edge. We do NOT like big ugly steak-house-restaurant type knives on our table. And finally, we don't care a fig about how good or bad a storage box looks. Our knives are rarely stored for long because whenever we serve any meat or fowl, we've always put steak knives out with the flatware. And OH MY, this Wusthof set is *phenomenally* nicer than the equally simple but hysterically expensive black-handled ones from Germany that we've been using for decades. This is solid, sleek, hefty-feeling stuff. The design goes wonderfully with our other flatware ranging from fancy to plain (in fact, the steak knife is actually heavier than some of the flatware pieces sitting next to it on the table). And YES it DOES cut very well indeed -- which is all hub & I ask from any knife!

They fit like a glove!Jan 21, 2003
By Jodi Mongin
I have been looking for quality steak knives for a while now and when I saw these I thought they were not only beautiful to look at, but well made. We have been grilling a lot more now that we have them! They feel great in your hand and you can't beat the price. They wash well in the dishwasher too.

Excellent quality, versatileDec 31, 2009
By Liz in WA
I am blessed with gorgeous (inherited) nouveau-style sterling flatware from the thirties, plus heavy (inherited) colonial-style silverplate from the early 1900s. I also have my own very practical stainless that goes in the dishwasher. Guess which we use every day? But these steak knives go with all of it. I've had four of them since the four-knife set was on sale for a song, several years ago. Today I'm purchasing the eight-knife set, since I'm tired of the bulky "other" steakhouse-style set we've been using. It doesn't look good with the silver. And, I don't care about the box; you should see the one my silverplate lives in!
These are the best steak knives ever. They even go through the dishwasher from time to time and so far they're still sharp. I also like the slender tip, since it's easier to get that last bit of porkchop from the bone.
Three days later: Okay, I just received the eight-knife set. There are some differences: the blade is 1/4" longer, and the handle is 1/2" longer. The handles are also squared-off at the end rather than semi-circular. This design makes them heavier... better for big hands, but less deceptively delicate-looking. They're more like my other Wusthof knives. I still like them (and my husband likes them better than the others) but these definitely are more workhorse than racehorse. They're not quite as pretty on the table, but the added heft makes up for it.
The box is better than I expected. I'll probably spray-flock the interior someday, since not all the inside of the box is stained and finished like the outside. No urgency, though, as I found the knives can't move around much once they're slotted in. I doubt the small bit of wood lifting the blade up off the bottom will dull the blades.
The box is quite pretty, actually.

 There is a better deal on the 4-pc. setsJan 08, 2004
This 8-pc. set looks real nice, but the price when I checked last was $89.99. Amazon has the 4-pc. set, same knives, in a better box on sale for $29.99. Just order two of those. I got mine today and they're beautiful. Haven't used them yet and it will take some time to get used to their slim shape after using clunky steakhouse-type wooden-handle knives, but they look classy. I live in SW Florida and everything down here rusts. We have to buy stainless steel and I love the way these look and feel. I don't keep mine in a box, no storage space, so I don't care what the box looks like. I have magnitized bars attached to the wall behind my stove where I keep all my knives. The boxes that come with the 4-pc. sets, however, are nice aluminum boxes with a fancy latch. I'm going to give them to my grandchildren to store their treasures.

Amazing knivesSep 03, 2008
By A. Peters
We got these knives as a bridal shower gift in 2002 for our wedding from my great-aunt. We got the 8 piece set in the brown wooden box. True the box is not the greatest, but it doesn't really matter because the knives are what matter. The only reason tbe box matters is if you are giving the item as a gift, then of course you would want it to look ok (which ours did) but it doesn't have to hold up to much wear and tear. The box does what it is supposed to do. The knives seem to have a timeless classic and simple style that goes well with "fancy" or casual meals equally. We've used them at Christmas for prime-rib, mixed with our heirloom silver plated utensils, as well as with our everyday stainless. Not only are the knives good for steak, but also for chicken breasts. We are health-minded as well and yet it is nice to have these knives out when we have chicken, turkey, ham, etc. The kives are well balanced, attractive, sharp, and do a wonderful job at what they're supposed to, plus they look and feel good doing it! Yea!
