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!

The filet knife I received seem to be… The filet knife I received seem to be high quality I may be spoiled as I bought shun kitchens knives and the filet knife isn't a third the price but mine was very dull and the shuns were so much sharper maybe mine slipped by but in the future I would like to see a sharper one if I buy another

Outstanding customer service The experience with this company has been hands down great. Great customer service, even on Christmas Day. Being a business owner myself I commend the promptness and customer service. I received my knives and I’m absolutely blown away. The quality of the blade and sharpness far exceeds what I expected. I will definitely be ordering more in the future to replace all my kitchen knives.

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

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
