Weak edge retention!:

My first set of quality knives. Well balanced, nice looking, but weak edge retention. Despite using bamboo as a cutting surface I have to resharpen them every week to keep a razor sharp edge. I was pretty satisfied with them until I tried a small Global utility knife, which was much sharper out of the box and maintained its edge way longer.

Great knife; expensive, but worth it:

The knife block itself has room for many other knives, and 6 steak knives. The knives themselves are extremely well made.

My favorite knife is the 6" utility knife, because it's not too big, it can be used by men and woman alike (the 8" chef's knife may be a bit big for smaller women), and it's thin enough to get into smaller areas.... more info

Highly recommend getting the cheap ginsu 6 piece bakelite steak knife set for $10 on amazon. The handles color, design and rivets match the wusthoff set. And you will not feel bad when you destroy these eating steak on glass plates.

Kitchen staple:

I got this as a wedding gift, and I was amazed at how much of a difference it makes in the kitchen! Good knives make cooking such an enjoyable experience, and Wusthof is well-known to be one of the best out there. The 8-piece set is perfect for people who want to start with a good set and build up on it. Of course I use the chef's knife the most, but I also use the bread knife and paring knife a lot too. I think a santoku knife would be a nice addition to this set, and perhaps steak knives would be... more info
