My wife bought a set of Cutco knives. I almost cried when I saw the price but I'll give them that, they're sharp! I've cut open more boxes, letters and fingers using those than any other knives we own. I mean, uh...I use them for tomatoes, potatoes and the preparation of gourmet meals if my wife reads this, lmao! They hold up well and are worth every penny, I hate to say. Beats the heck out of the Henkel set she did have...those things are junk.
