Conversation peice in a box
 from Chicago,  Dec 20, 2006

I purchased the set in black, months ago, and people continue to ask me where I got it. I picked up the green set for my sister who loved this item. Knives are solid metal, no place for food, water, or germs to collect. Sheathes in the back take away from the look a bit, but are necessary for safety. Buy a good sharpener, as the original edge is sturdy but not as sharp as I prefer.

Forever the conversation piece
 from Maryland,  Jan 13, 2012

I would never have found this item on my own but my college age son saw one in an online design blog and loved it. Hence the birthday present. This unique knife holder sculpture always gets attention with "Where did you get that?" tp "That is the coolest thing ever!" This green apple color is a nice focal point for any kitchen color scheme and is just wacky enough to carry off the look as art. Because it is a plastic material, I would never order it in the chrome color because I think then it would look cheap. This is a very functional piece as well and the knives are adequate.

  • How did the color on site compare with the actual product? color was accurate
  • Please tell us about the quality of the product. Has held up well after 3 moves in five years!
  • How accurate was the on site description of the product? Very Accurate

Too bulky for my counter
 from NJ,  Jun 14, 2011

I used the holder once, because I thought it was funny, but then it just was cumbersome on my counter. The knives, however, were really nice, and super slicers. I threw out the holder dude, and use just the knives.

  • Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Yes
  • How is the quality of the product? Knives are great, holder not so much
  • Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? Yes

Cheap
 from Texas,  Sep 3, 2010

This knife holder is larger than it appears and the circle base takes up a lot of space. The plastic is cheap and cracks easily. I never used the knives so I don't know how nice they are. We sent it back. The color is very true to the picture and very nice.

Conversation Piece
 from Jax, FL,  Aug 5, 2010

This is a very cool conversation piece. It is substantial in size and draws attention. I only wish the knife quality was a bit better. They are flat blades so they can be sharpened, but this is more decorative as sold. That being said, the knife could be replaced with a better set if you wanted to use this as a functional holder. The price was great as I saw this piece at an art museum gift shop for over double the price. Thanks Overstock!!

The Ex Knife Set
 from DC,  Apr 3, 2008

I ordered this for a friend of mine who has recently divorced her husband. This definitely made her laugh. She thought it was hilarious. She's enjoyed showing it to family and friends that have visited. Not sure how functional or durable it is but it was a great gag gift which is why I gave it 5 stars across the board!

Throw out those dreary knife blocks!
 from Madison, WI,  Dec 23, 2007

The "Ex" is great fun, great looking, and my chef son-in-law was even surprised at the quality of the knives. Don't worry about safety, the knives are nicely sheathed in plastic sleeves at the back of the unit, and there seems to be magnets holding them in place. Really happy with this purchase.

Fun Kitchen Knife Set
 from Columbus, GA,  Mar 20, 2007

I really liked this knife set when I saw it online and just had to have it. The price was a little high, but I had a coupon, so all is well :). When I opened up the package, I was surprised at how large it was. It takes up alot of room on my counter, but it sure is fun to talk about. I love stabbing the little guy after cleaning my knives. If you have a unique sense of humor, this is the kitchen item you need!
