Morphy Richards Accents 46290 5 Piece Knife Block with High Grade Polished Stainless Steel Knives, Black

Been using for a year now. They look elegant in their holder and there's a good variety of knives included. All used regularly and have remained as sharp as the first use. Durable, comfy to hold and great value for money. Defo recommended as the perfect kitchen aid.

I purchased these for my mum who seems to have an abundance of old knives that are either blunt or broken in one way or another and I felt that I would treat her to a decent set to replace the old ones and also free up some of her kitchens draws space.These are ideal as firstly they are of very high quality, incredibly sharp and sit nicely in their own little rack on the worktop surface. They are also good due to the fact that there are no additional plastic handles etc, so cleaning them is very easy, no little cracked or gaps for dirt and germs to collect.The knives themselves are nice and light in the hand, some find this a negative and prefer a little weight, however for my elderly mum, these are perfect.The base metal base that holds the knives is really nice and compact, takes up very little space as well as looking very smart. The colour stated is Black, however, it is not a deep Black, it is an aluminium Black and I have to say that it looks really smart and is also very easy to keep clean.These are high-quality knives and are nicely made and presented, I would highly recommend these.

Bought this knife set for our new kitchen and they are good quality and come in a fairly stylish knife block.All of the knives are nice and sharp and I also bought a knife sharpener to ensure they stay that way.I’ve seen some reviews where people are complaining about the weight of the knives being too light?! Yes, they are quite light but I bought them so I can slice vegetable and cut up meat. I’m not trying to get a sweat on with a workout each time I make dinner. They’re not so light that I think they’re about to snap and I’ve used them on everything from bread to sweet potatoes to meat. All have performed fine.I think they’ll last and, for the price, I’m really pleased. You can spend some obscene amounts of money on knife sets but this one is fine for me and it does what it’s supposed to do. I’ve only given 4 stars for longevity so far, but only because I’ve not had the knife block long enough to say it’s super durable.

I recently bought the Morphy Richards Accents 46290 5 Piece Knife Block with High Grade Polished Stainless Steel Knives in Black. At first glance, this knife set looks fantastic. The knives are housed in a sleek black block, and the polished stainless steel blades add a touch of elegance to my kitchen. The quality of the knives feels great, with a substantial weight that indicates good craftsmanship.The bread knife and the larger chef knife are very sharp and handle most tasks with ease. However, I have noticed a significant drop in performance with the smaller utility knives. One of them even struggled to cut through a small tomato, which was quite shocking. It’s not what I expected from a set that appears so well-made.The packaging was secure, and the delivery was very fast, which I appreciated. The overall service from the seller was excellent, but I can’t overlook the fact that the smaller knives do not match the sharpness of the larger ones. They generally cut through most things fine, but every now and then, a soft vegetable or fruit presents a challenge.In summary, while the set looks great and feels high-quality, the inconsistent sharpness of the smaller knives is a drawback. Given this, I’m hesitant to recommend this set wholeheartedly or purchase it again.

Bought as a gift for my daughter. She chose them, and apparently they are excellent, sharp and work well.

Rasor sharp out of the box.They look good and work better.There may be better looking sets out there. But for the price, these look and feel, much more expensive.

Sharp, great set better than my more expensive ones

Got these yesterday and look great except that the knives dont line up on the block as shown and are slightly staggered presumably to help extraction. Also watch your fingers as these are exceptionately sharp- I cut my finger first time I used them !! Otherwise they are great.
