Web ID: 24837316Good-Looking Knife Set / Titanium Coating Issues
First off, this is a very beautiful knife set. I am excited to use it, but I was disappointed in the quality of the Titanium coating right out of the box (the paring knife doesn't seem like it was completely coated). Other than that, all of the other silicon spots washed up nicely with dish soap.

Paint flakes off into food
Bought this product a little over a year ago. Hand washed them each time after use. And the paint has chipped off. The knives are beautiful and are great to handle but the paint chipping is a problem.

Black flaking off into food as I cut
I bought these knives 5 months ago and the black finish is flaking off as I cut, and getting in my food. Not happy about this but was happy with the knives until this started. I’m hoping they are returnable. I have only hand washed them.

Black Coating is Flaking off
The black coating is peeling off after a few months of use. I have only handwashed these knifes so its a bit frustrating that the coating is peeling. Just buy normal non finished steel knives. I wish I could go back and buy some normal non-coated knives instead of these.

Love them
I waited 7 months to review to see how they worked out. I use them daily. I like the 15-degree blade. New to me. The edge holds up well and is quite sharp. Their hand-held sharpener (set to 15 degrees) is a great accessory. I was concerned about the black finish wearing off quickly, but Schmidt assured me they had resolved this issue using an improved finish. At 8 months, being careful not to use abrasive sponges or cleaners, the finish is as good as day one. Very happy with the knives. Not so happy with the block. It kinda looks cheap. My personal opinion! Others may love it. I felt it should be all jet black as well. I took mine apart and painted it. I feel it looks much better having done that. However, I ultimately chose to hang them on a black magnetic bar to save counter space. Overall, very happy with the purchase. Value and quality.

Looked Great at First But Doesn’t Age Well ⚔️
When I first got this Schmidt Bros. Jet Black 7-Piece Knife Block Set, I was impressed by the sleek design and especially the magnetic stand it’s stylish, convenient, and a real conversation piece. For the first few weeks, it looked amazing on my counter. But after just a few months of normal kitchen use, the jet-black coating started to scratch off, revealing uneven spots underneath. The finish looks dull and patchy now, and I honestly don’t even know what shade of black this is supposed to be anymore. The knives still function fine, but the appearance has gone downhill fast, which defeats the purpose of owning a designer knife set. I used to proudly display them now I’d rather keep them tucked away. ⭐ 2 out of 5 stars — Great concept, poor durability. Looks aren’t meant to fade this fast.
