Amazon Basics 9-Piece Premium Knife Block Set

8 pictures. All of the lovely block. I wonder what the knives look like.

Apparently Amazon thought you only needed to see the one knife.

:person_shrugging:

Actually 2 knives (8" chef’s & 7" santoku) and a peek at a 3rd in an inset (either 3.5" paring or 5" utility).

Other corrections and omissions:

  1. The steel rod does not sharpen knives, it straightens small burrs to realign the edges of knives. (Unless it is either a ceramic steel or a steel with a diamond coating.)
  2. What material is used to make the triple riveted ergonomic handles?
  3. The bolsters indicate the knives are forged instead of stamped, but this is not stated.
  4. In Specifications it states blade edges: serrated, but only the Bread knife has a serrated edge.
  5. Where are these knives made? China?

Hi there. These are being pulled from Amazon inventory so we don’t have a lot of information. Here it is on Amazon:

They don’t go into that level of detail. Made in China though.

Thanks. I edited my comment to note the Specifications say the blade edges are serrated when only the bread knife has a serrated edge. Also, anyone who follows the link to the Amazon page should note the incredibly cheap price for the 14-piece set is because the knives are stamped instead of forged. I wish Anazon would not lump together totally different products. There is no way a review of the stamped set should apply to the forged set, yet Amazon has 23,425 reviews comingled for the 3 sets. (I know you don’t have any control over that.)
