Product Description:
Amazon.com Review:
A mid-range line for the proficient or aspiring home chef, this R.H. Forschner block set consists of a selection of the most commonly used kitchen cutlery. The blades, hand-finished in Switzerland, are constructed of high-carbon, no-stain steel, with a full tang for superior strength and balance. The knives retain their sharp edges and are readily resharpened when necessary. All the utensils feature black fibrox handles, molded in an ergonomic shape that is designed to reduce wrist tension over extended periods of use.
The five knives in this set consist of a 4-inch paring, 6-inch boning, 8-inch chef's, 8-inch bread, and 10-inch slicing. Completing the selection are a 10-inch sharpening steel and pair of kitchen shears. All come with designated slots in the solid hardwood block, angled for quick access. Covered by a lifetime warranty against defects, the cutlery in the set is dishwasher-safe, although washing by hand is recommended. --Ann Bieri

I received my knives from Amazon and the package was complete as described. I noticed other customers have complained about 2 knives missing because of the knife block having 2 extra slots with no knives in place. This is an 8 piece set, that includes the scissors and block as a piece itself. That is the reason why many are falsely believing they are missing 2 knives.
In anycase, the knives are very sharp and great to use. I was cutting potatoes to make fresh french fries and my chef knife was very stable and easy to cut. The handle and grip is perfect as it's not too large or stubby like others.
Would definately recommend these knives to anyone who is looking to own a great set of knives for the kitchen. I am very pleased.

Based on the other recommendations, I ordered the 8 piece knife set as a Christmas gift. When it arrived, it was missing two of the knives. The order was sent from [...]. I plan on calling them first thing in the morning. I caution those seeking to order through this company as mine is the second review that indicates an incomplete order. Very frustrating and unprofessional. If you do want to order this product - seek a different distributor.

Share the view of most reviewers - the knives are a pleasure to use. Puzzled by previous review - the block does have two spare slots but the set was complete as advertised. The shears are short and sharp - made in France. I also ordered the Santoku knife as several other reviewers recommended this (thank you) and it fits an empty slot. Thought this would be my favorite knife but recently found i love using the chef's knife. It cuts cleanly, feels good and well balanced to hold. The smallest knife has a chunky handle compared to blade and doesn't feel/look so well balanced but it's sharp and cuts cleanly too. The wooden block has an attractive grain and is stable (one of the reasons i bought this set instead of the Rachel Ray one as the block looked too narrow - at the time this set was under $80 but now has shot up in price).
