Top Ten Item I Own - PERIOD!
I'm a young college student who works at a restaurant as a waiter. Like many young people, I one day got a fleeting aspiration that would probably go away within a couple of weeks. I wanted to be an awesome cook, so the first thing I did was ask the chef at my restaurant what tools I needed to start. He told me a good kitchen knife is THE essential tool of the chef. He recommended I go to Williams Sonoma and try out every knife possible but warned me that chef knives cost close to $100 dollars each. Whoa! He also said that Santoku blades are very popular these days because they're extremely versatile and feel good in your hands (something about balance).
Nonetheless, I went to Williams-Sonoma the next day and tried out the Henkels, Wustof Classic, Wustof Grand Prix, Wustof Grand Prix 2, Globals, and Shuns. I ultimately chose the Wustof Grand Prix 2 because of the perfect balance in the knife. It felt perfect. The handle was much grippier than the others, extremely light,...
I love my set, and it saves you some $$$
This set is just 20 dollars more for the pairing knife, than the one without. You can not buy a Wusthof knife for 20 dollars. I watched Rachael Ray for too long on the Food Channel cutting easily at her veggies. These knives are some of the best quality knives you can buy. The specially made blade does enable a quick, accurate cut.
The grip and the weight of these knives give them an excellent balance that simply is impossible to be beat. These two knives have quickly become my most used knives for everyday. I would highly recommend these knives if you are looking to start or add to your knive collection.
Excellent knives
Purchased as a gift and they were plesed to have them. I have given thise set several times and everyone loves the knives.
