Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Chicago Cutlery Walnut Tradition 14-Piece Block Set
Customer Review: ok but cheap.
Summary: 2 Stars
I've owned these knives for several months now and cook most my meals. If I had to guess I use these knives at least once a day.
Block: Nice wood block with a metal emblem on one side.
Chef's knife: Blade(stamped metal) seems thin. The length is shorter than most which I feel makes it easier to control but I have to use the steel often to put the edge back on. And I'm a no dishwasher, nothing but wood cutting board, hand wash them one at a time care Nazi. I like the wood handles with the rough finish because I feel it adds to my grip and control but most of my friends are turned off by them.
Boning knife: Same blade material as the chef just slimmer to add some flex. Mine came with a small nick in the blade but other than that it performs tasks like cleaning a rack of lamb well enough. You will dull the hell out of it on one rack cleaning the bones.
Paring knife: About as classic of a paring knife as you can get. Nothing special here.
Steak knifes: You get 8 of them! Which is good because your plates are going to dull the heck out of them after a couple of chicken breasts so you can always reach for a spare.
Sharpening steel: While I already owned a nice steel I was glad to see they included one. Once again a very basic design that even by classic standards is outdated. Gets the job done but a quick wipe down versus my modern version lends me to believe the one included wants to remove more material in the honing process. So I gave it a pass.
All in all I'm sad to see where an American classic has gone. Functional but low quality.
