1. Know What You Are Buying, 2. How to Use It Properly, And, 3. Then Take Care of It !

BUYER: Please know what you are buying and NOT buying... You are NOT buying an impervious, undamagable stainless steel knife. Even stainless steel silverware will spot and discolor. An expensive Shun Knife, like these Calphalon knives, is also made from carbon steel-but with the Shun knife the blade is imixed with stainless steel for a higher quality metal amalgamation. It is the softer carbon steel that allows the knife blade to be honed to a sharp edge, yet will discolor, pit and rust. A less expensive Calphalon Knife is also made of carbon steel, amalgamated with "No stain steel" -likely a lesser quality of steel, hence the affordable price. The carbon steel in both knives is likely to stain and rust IF YOU DO NOT TAKE CARE OF THEM PROMPTLY AFTER USING!!!
1. NEVER PUT IN DISHWASHER: The strong DW detergent will literally "eat" the thin sharp edge of the knife, making it jagged. In the DW water sits on the knife blade, discoloring it and eventually rusting it. The dryer in your DW just can't dry it quickly enough. 2. Wash and dry you knife well and immediately after each use: Especially dry the blade near the handle. Do not allow acidic foods, juices to sit on the blades- again, it will discolor and rust the soft carbon steel component in the blade. 3. Please don't ruin the sharp edge on the blade by using the blade itself to scrape food off your cutting board- use the BACK SIDE of the knife to scrape food from your cutting board. 4. Use the right kind of cutting board- preferably plastic- not your granite countertop, or your ceramic dishes, or glass- it will ruin your knife edge, making it harder and harder to restore the sharp edge you had on your knife after first buying it.

If these simple rules are followed, your knives will perform flawlessly for you- take an online tutorial- and last a long time. A knife that has been inadvertently put in the dishwasher and now has a jagged, pitted edge can be taken to a good, professional knife sharpener who can remove the jagged edge-albeit with the loss of some of the blade- and restore the sharp edge. In this Calphon Knife Set, they have, to a degree, idiot proofed the sharpening care of the knife, a great advantage for fast- paced living and cooking!

Crap... dont buy

These knives are absolute garbage. I have had them for about 20 days and despite light home akitchen use and hand washing they are pitting and staining terribly. I have included pictures of the chefs knife. I thought that at this price point I would get good quality at least better than the 40 dollar set they replaced. So disappointed.

Absolutely brilliant

As a college student, I got used to living the cheap life. $25 Costco knife sets can be just as good as the real deal, right? I lived in my world of alternative facts, head buried in the sand like an ostrich avoiding eye contact with its crush. I kept believing my knives were just fine and that it was all the potato's fault my knife wasn't cutting anything. Darn organic potatoes are harder to cut than those normal potatoes because of the cage free lifestyle, obviously. Well, my head finally came out of the sand when I gifted myself this Calphalon knife set. This must have been the knife set Mickey Mouse used to cut his bread so thin. The self-sharpening block keeps the knives sharper than my grandfather's wit. I am absolutely thrilled with how well this knife set works! Get your head out of the sand and start dominating your food as nature intended!

Not stainless steel

I've only had this knife set for a little over a week and they've already started to rust. Extremely displeased with the quality of this set. I have had a set of J.A. Henckels for several years and not once have they rusted. I will stick with the Henckels from now on.

I have to say I am disappointed in this knife set
by Amazon Customer (2 out of 5 stars)

I have to say I am disappointed in this knife set. Seem to be good knives and I like the feel of them in your hand but with that being said all of the steak knives have started to rust. I don't use them very much so the fact that there is already something wrong with them is totally unacceptable in my eyes. Will be reaching out to Calphalon to see what they might offer.

Do not buy this product
by Brian R. (3 out of 5 stars)

This knife set looked good online. The claim of self-sharpening was great. When the knives arrived they were not pre-sharpened. When I buy a knife set, I expect them to be perfectly sharp out of the package. Even using the sharpeners built into the block, these knives are not sharp. Self-sharpening is a gimic, not a feature. I was more disappointed, because I bought these as a Christmas gift for my fiancée. A year later, I am using these knives, but I have to sharpen them with a knife sharpener and a steel, before using them. Save your money and buy a different knife set, since you will have to sharpen these anyway.

Great set for a great price
by Alex Santoyo (5 out of 5 stars)

I really liked the over all feel of these knives. The handles have labeling for the chef, paring, Santuko, and utility knives. It takes the guess work out of it. You can hear the sharpening happening after every pull of the knife. It keeps a decent edge. I keep a honing steel on hand but the sharpening does work! The only thing that I was dispointed was that the 8 inch bread knife was not included so you just have a missing knife in an open slot. It only bothers what little OCD I have. Anyway great set for any beginner or everyday use.

Best Knife Set Ever!!!!
by JohnPaul (5 out of 5 stars)

I had the Walmart Kitchen Aid cheep crap knife set that had a hard time cutting through butter 3 months after I got them Finally gave myself permission to order quality. OMG, I had to cut up some chicken for dinner.....didn't have to press down hard, cut the meat clean and easy. The big knives have a self-sharpening stone when you place them back in their holding area that sharpens the knife as you slide it back in! Love these knives, high quality product! JP

I purchased these for a Christmas gift. After the first wash in the dishwasher they rusted. After looking at the manufacturer's website I discovered they void the warranty if washed in the dishwasher because the rust....don't make the same mistake I made purchase a product that is dishwasher safe. Not sure why the dishwasher water is different than the tap water....

Looking for really sharp knife set. This comes close, especially with the built-in sharpener. Looks good, good quality material cuts well and is easy to handle. Satisfied customer.
