Wusthof 10-piece Block Set

I have been wanting to get a set of the Grand Prix II series for about 6 months now, so when I saw the price on Overstock, I decided to take the plunge. I was very excited to come home to find the box at my door, could not wait to open it... only to realize that the block has space for only four steak knives, not 6 as it is shown in the picture. Debating whether to return it. That said, Grand Prix II knives are a joy to use. Slightly lighter than the Classic series, it's obviously a matter of taste, but for me they are more convenient to use. The handle feels more stable in my hand than the Ikon series. (My decision for the model was made after shopping for knives in several stores for two months, and trying out any knife I could get my hands one, which I highly recommend to anybody looking for a good knife) I adore my other Grand Prix II knives, which I have had and loved for six months now, and am looking forward to using more of them (either this or another set if I end up returning this one...)

Don't keep putting off the purchase of a good knife set. Mimsy and I always found something else that we needed more than a new set of good knives. We kept on accumulating cheap crappy knives, and sharpening them over and over---as if that would improve the quality. Nuh-uh. So I bought this set. They are terrific. Little tasks in the kitchen are a breeze, and bigger tasks have become little (clever, yes?). Seriously, you will be very, very pleased you bought these, and this set gives you a great selection of fine knives at a very good price. Get 'em now.
