Pros & Cons
Pros
I am exceptionally impressed with this knife set. Fab knife block set for the price. Great value for money and longevity.
For me the heaviness is a positive but for an older person might be too heavy to handle. The knives are all made in high quality japanese steel and have triple-riveted handles.
Knives and pair of shears are good to go into dishwasher top shelf. Six steak knives are a nice touch, but not something we'd make use of an awful lot. Good quality knife block and good quality kitchen scissors.
The block also has a convenient sharpener built in, but i think you’ll be treating the knives better in the long term using a wet sanding stone. I love the fact this has an inbuilt sharpener too as it is so easy just to give the knives a few swipes to... Read More

Price
I believe the price is about right for this excellent set of knives with a block and sharpener, worthy of 5 stars.
Packaging/appearance
I happily wrapped my old knives up the packaging these came with and sent them to a charity shop.
It won't slide around on the worktop.
Competitiveness
It's not the cheapest set on the market and there is quite a bit of competition in this price bracket.
The block has an antislip design so it will not slide on the countertop.
The side is roughly 22cm tall, 14cm wide and 21cm deep, as it's a sloped design.

The chef knife is quite large compared to what i’m used to and i have smaller hands so would have preferred a smaller sized option for better control

The handles are smooth they can go in the dishwasher in the top rack but i think the texture of the handles will be affected by it and loose some colouring
