Product description

 

The GINSU 04827 International Traditions Bakelite 14 Piece Stainless Steel Cutlery Set features the Symetric Edge design which integrates identical serrations expertly matched to each side of the knife's blade. This produces a two dimensional serrated surface capable of precision center cuts. The result is no maintenance, never needs sharpening, serrated edge that perfoms with the accuracy of fine edged professional cutlery. This design is ideal for both righ and left handed use! Made of professional quality 420 series satin finished stainless steel blades, provide consumers the perfect combination of performance, balance, and style - all supported by a lifetime limited warranty.

Any person that has ever tried to slice the golden crust of a baguette with a paring knife, or to peel an apple with a chef’s knife, knows the importance of stocking a wide variety of cutlery in the kitchen. A single recipe may require four or five different knives to cut, dice, and slice with efficiency and ease. To cover this wide gamut, Ginsu offers a new comprehensive cutlery set. From the International Traditions cutlery line, the 14-piece set comes equipped with a 3-1/2-inch paring knife, 4-1/2-inch utility knife, 5-inch boning knife, 8-inch slicer, 8-inch chef’s knife, 8-inch bread knife, six 4-1/2-inch steak knives, kitchen shears, and knife block. With this wide variety of blades, the set makes a wonderful housewarming gift for a young family establishing their first household.

The blade of each knife was forged from Japanese 420 series stainless steel with full tang for increased balance and permanence. The hygienic stainless-steel construction resists rusting, staining, and corrosion. The craftsmen at Ginsu employ a specialized Symmetric Edge technology, notching matching serrations on both sides of the blade for enhanced precision and smoothness for left- and right- handed users alike. The balanced two-dimensional serration eliminates the need for sharpening these knifes. Stainless-steel handles are curved to provide an ergonomically-friendly hold for chefs. The knife block features sturdy hardwood construction to protect knives and permit quick access while cooking. For cleaning convenience, the knives are dishwasher- safe. Ginsu covers the set with a limited lifetime warranty. The knife block measures 8-1/2 by 6 by inches. The set weighs 9 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

    « Good product for the money »
    For the price this set is a winner. The knives cut well but are not as sharp as I had anticipated. The set is well made and looks good.

    « Great set! - RUSTED though »
    As a left hander, I would highly recommend this knife set. It is durable, looks good and the knifes are sharp! I am 25 and have never found a knife set that was affordable for left handers, until I found this. Sorry to say I have had these knives for only 1 month and they have already started to rust! Very sad.

    Ginsu Knives are what all the hype is about. They very sharp and sturdy. When slicing an onion or tomatoe they make it so easy.I use mine on fresh pineapple too. I had a black handle set only to just buy a stainless steel set for my wife, know we use the older set for camping. Oh the price and delivery was a bargin too.

    Thank you

    We mainly purchased this product for our kitchen stainless decor. We love the way it looks in our kitchen. We have heard that the set works well but we are pleased the way it is made.

    I have been making do with dull knives for so long, I forgotten how much easier and faster cooking is when you have great knives to use! This knife set is perfect. It has the main knives you need on a daily basis. They are not kidding when they say these knives are sharp. They are! I have the cuts to prove it. Be careful when using these knives. A little effort goes a long way when using these knives. Love them!
