Best Stanley Rogers Kitchen Knives

Wonderful knives! – I have been looking for another very good knife set for some years now, and I finally found a set that didn't break the bank! For $114.50 on sale… Read more

(half price), they are WELL worth the money! These knives are ultra sharp, light, comfortable to hold - they're very ergonomic - and they go in the dishwasher and are still super sharp afterwards! I've been wanting an Asian-style (santoku) knife for some years as well, because I didn't have one, but now I do :-) The slim wedge block fits so easily on the counter, too. The shape of these knives is fantastic. I can chop so easily. The tip of the knives rolls nicely, allowing for fast motion chopping. I've got a Mundial set at present, and they're very good, but the blades are quite thick. Great for chopping pumpkin, and tougher foods, but sometimes you want a thinner blade eg for chopping chicken meat. I wouldn't use the Stanley Rogers set for cutting really heavyset foods, as they feel a little too bendy for that, but they are fantastic for everyday chopping, which is what the vast majority of my cooking entails. About the only qualm I have is that that the bread knife seems a little too short in blade length, but it makes up for this by being super sharp. However, I have to watch I don't destroy my wooden chopping board now when I slice my fresh bread loaves! My arms and hands are grateful to have found lighter, easy to hold and easy to use knives, and my bank balance is also happy that I got them at such a good price! Highly recommend these knives. A great set to have.
