Looks awesome
They look awesome, they come super sharp and have a nice weight to them.The durability isn’t the best because of the narrow angle but as long as you use them properly, they’re perfect.

Marshal Simmons –
Great set for the deal I paid
The quality of the knives are great. They all came out the box sharp and clean, glad I got them on a sale. Fit my hands nicely without slipping or turning. The look of the knives are perfect for my style.Only bad thing about this order was the Santuko blade has a pretty bad chip in it. For the price would expect no chips in them
