Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Farberware 23-Piece Classic Forged Knife Set
Customer Review: Good bang for the buck
Summary: 5 Stars
Wanted to get a full set of kitchen knives to upgrade from a starter set. Consumer gave Faberware a best buy so I ordered this set.
First impression was very good. Blades are definitly forged and high quality: appear to be in CV or 440 range and are sharp and smooth. Yep they will pass the shaving test if you are so inclined. Balance and feel are good.
The steak knives are stamped and whilc the handles match the utility pieces they are not up to the standard of the other pieces. almost downgraded to a 4 star because of the steak knives but at 79 bucks.
How do they compare to the big W and standing man? They can hold their own and to be honest the out of the box blade sharpness and edge smoothness is better. I got curious and went to a brick and motar business and gave W and standing a good once over. Am knowledagble in knives and was happy with how the Fabs more than held up and in finish did better.
They may not impress your guests like the German counterparts but I think I would prefer to own a very good knife set and use the difference to buy say maybe a new washer and dryer, or big screen TV, or new computer....etc.
As a last note - dishwashers are made for DISHES. Any knife will rust, the blades get nicked, and the handles can discolor or come loose. If you feel a dishwasher is absolutely necessary at least get a marine Tuf-Cloth and wipe the blades down occassionally.
