The appeal of the knives was what… The appeal of the knives was what caught our attention, and the price seemed good. I'm not someone that knows anything about knife weight and whatever other characteristics people care about, so I can't leave an educated review on the effectiveness of the knives; however, what they did do is make me want to cook more, and actually do it well, and those are two qualities of cooking I've never been inspired to improve at. I don't know why having a few of these knives in my kitchen would make such a difference, but it's gotten me reading books, which is a feat in itself. Thanks Forged Blade, you make awesome stuff!

Incredible knives I bought the Wildrose Damascus 5 piece knife set and couldn't be happier. They're truly a work of art and so incredibly sharp! Worth every penny.

Razor sharp nice knife The knife I received is razor sharp and seems to be good build quality. I ordered the Santoku and it works very well for preparing everything from meat to veggies

I bought a few different knife sets… I bought a few different knife sets from the Forged Blade and these are incredible. The style, quality and sharpness are second to none. Katie Smith from customer service was extremely helpful in making sure I was totally satisfied with my purchases and I will be buying more. Job well done!

Ordered 2 knives to try something… Ordered 2 knives to try something different because I love cooking. The 1st one is the santoku explorer series, I love the shape, the weight, the look , the handle is comfortable and it is very sharp. The 2nd one I purchased was the 8" chef knife explorer series also. Also very nice and and sharp. Both knives came individually in a nice box and shopping was very fast considering that I'm on the opposite coast. Cost was very affordable.I recommend this product
