KYOKU Damascus Non-Serrated Steak Knives Set of 4 - Shogun Series - Japanese VG10 Steel - with Sheath & Case

I've been very happy with this knife set. Really surprised at the affordable cost for such a well made knife. Solid materials and heft. Holds a great edge. Looks great. Seems like you don't need to spend a bundle on a knife set to get quality and a perfectly useful set.

I've used these knives with my china settings and the guests talked about the knives. I've had these 3 years and every time I bring them out for special guests or family events, they are a topic of conversation. Everyone is impressed! The knife sheath gives an air of 'specialness' and I leave them on for place settings. The first thing you notice is the weighted handle. I saw a complaint on someone's review about the weight of the knife, but I think it says quality and the cool, weighted handle feels good in your hand. It's easy to hold. When you slide the sheath off, you see a beautiful Damascus design on the blade, which adds to the Mosaic pin in the handle in solidifying its attractiveness and overall special feel of the knife. And finally, the best part, it slides through steak like silk. I've never sharpened mine and they're still amazingly sharp. I just ordered a second set to round out my dinnerware collection. I love them!

I bought 4 and have used them several times since. Unbelievably sharp with 12 degree blade. That is like a razor. That also means be careful, the edge is sensitive to damage. Just bought 8 more for daughter that enjoys cooking. Highly recommend these for people that enjoy quality products. These are quality.

These knives are extremely well made and have maintained a very sharp edge over the last couple months. The overall quality, fit and finish is excellent. The only critique is that it’s hard to determine if the “Damascus” pattern is authentically created in the forging process - or if it’s some kind of laser or chemical etching. If it’s ‘fake’, I would have been happier without the design. The quality of the steel is up-front and clear. The weight and balance of the knife is excellent, and the ergonomics of the handle are very good. What these knives give you is incredible value that I don’t believe you’ll be able to find once more goods are manufactured back at home in the U.S., and fewer are imported from China. But I’m okay with that. I would be willing to pay almost double for the same quality knives made in the U.S., with equivalent steel.

I was looking to upgrade our steak knives but considering the times, I did not want to spend a ton of money. I stumbled upon these when the prices was cheaper and ordered them. I don't think they are true damascus steel knives. Our knives came super sharp and after a few rounds of meat, the edge is holding well. These are definitely an upgrade from our previous knife set and I was comfortable with the price. After some quick research, these are made in China, I'm not sure why the company is misleading. If you are looking for a very decent set of steak knives, I would buy this set again.

Beautiful, very sharp and good price

The knives arrived yesterday, in good condition. The overall weight of these knives is impressive. I have not used them yet, but the edge on them is like a razor, time will tell if they will hold up.

They warn you these are sharp and they indeed are very sharp. Maybe for the first time ever i cut a steak with zero effort . They have heft to them. They are absolutely top notch quality and they can feel it and see it. Great purchase. Very pleased
