Beautiful and terrifyingly sharp
I have been using these knives for a few days now. They are absolutely beautiful and terrifyingly sharp. The knife block is interesting and provides a nice kitchen accent. It does not, however, fit under the cabinets on the counter in such a way that knives can be taken in and out easily like my prior traditional knife block. I have seen other reviewers note that the blue on the block chips off with use as you inevitably stab the knife block as you try to reinsert knives after use. I can't comment on that yet, however. I like the way they feel in my hand, they are a bit heavier than the Zwilling Professional S knives that I have had forever and am used to, but that isn't really an issue to me.

The Knives I Always Wanted.
I am by no means a practiced cook or chef, but have for the entirety of my adult life struggled with cheap knives when it came to meal prepping. After using a Kita Series Chef’s knife, I decided to invest in an entire set for myself and I have been absolutely blown away. Starting with the knife block: it’s heavy and solid, not to mention being aesthetically pleasing. The knives themselves are outstanding. Hand-forged X-7 Damascus gives each blade its own unique fingerprint; they hold their edges for longer than expected due to their hardness and yet aren’t brittle like most metals in the same Rockwell range. I was able to slice through large turnips as though they were tomatoes with the Santoku. My only advice is to be very mindful of where your fingers are while using these as they are sharpened to a razor’s edge. Extremely happy with this purchase for the price point, they are well worth the investment for a pro set of knives I expect to last a lifetime.

Great knives and a few suggestions
Some of the most attractive and sharpest knives I have ever owned. I love them. I cook a lot and these almost fall through food! I would have preferred a few changes. The serrated utility knife has very little use for me. I would have liked a filet knife and a non-serrated utility knife. I had to keep both of those from my last knife set to complement the Cangshan knives. I would have liked the block to come with touch-up paint. The knives are so sharp they immediately began catching the edges of the openings. This takes the color off the block.

Stunning and Well-Crafted
My son who works in a restaurant owned by a Michelin Star chef recommended this set when we purchased a new house. They look stunning in our new kitchen as a centerpiece and they are a pleasure to work with, crafted so well. They make you feel like an artist in the kitchen.
