Reviews ChicagoCutlery Fusion 18-Piece Set including Honey Maple Wood Block

I love this ChicagoCutlery Fusion 18-Piece Set. I was somewhat challenged getting the utensils to sit correctly first time round but since then, wow! These knives have a nice weight, excellent hardness (keeps sharp under heavy use), and they offer a good grip even with wet hands. The bamboo block adds a very nice decorative touch.

It's elegant looking, super well-made/sturdy (both the base and the knives - steak ones are lighter than some I've seen but, again and to me, elegant). I do clean the knives by hand after I use them so maybe that's the trick if others have had issues. The knives will require frequent sharpening IF you use them a lot, but for daily use in a home kitchen they will hold an edge for a long time.

• Professional high carbon stainless steel forged blades with black comfort grip poly handles
• Exclusive taper grind edge technology provides optimum sharpness for precise cutting and is easy to resharpen
• High carbon stainless steel creates a stronger harder blade resisting stains rust and pitting
• Lack nonslip cushion grip handles allow for a sturdy grip on all knives
• Stainless steel plates at the end of the handle convey sleek and contemporary styling

The ChicagoCutlery Fusion 18-Piece Set are extremely sharp. So sharp that they are beginning to cut through the flexible cutting boards we use. The steak knives are not serrated but they are also so sharp that they kinda don't need to be. There's a pleasant heft of weight in the largest knives as one would expect from an expensive set.

I don't recommend putting them in a dishwasher. It will dull them and water will probably get in between the metal and the rubber of the handles. Wash them by hand with hot soapy water and they will last forever. They kind of make a rainbow shape when placed in the storage block so it looks ok.

Like I said I am hard to please when it comes to quality of a product and this set pleases me. I have looked at many sets before purchasing this set and for only $129.95 I truly believe you will NOT find a better set. Be very careful, the factory edge on these knives will shave your arm, in other words THEY ARE EXTREMELY SHARP!

I haven't had a use for all the various shapes of knife but I'm sure I will in the course of the year.
