What's a good knife set?!
I'm looking to get my mom a new knife set for Christmas because she's still using the one from her wedding nearly 30 years ago! Where can I find a good set!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
I prefer the J!.A!. Henckels -No Stain Friodour professional knives from Solingen, Germany!.!.!.!.These are excellent knives, a little expensive, but they will last for generations,,no kidding!. you can buy one knife at a time or a complete set,depending on what you want,, These are available at Macys and other fine department stores!. DO NOT BUY the ones under the same name usually sold at grocery or hardware stores, they are not the same quality!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
If you're looking for high quality without breaking your wallet wide open, try Henkel!.
I have the "Classic" style similar to the one shown here ($200!.00 Canadian bought me two utility knives, a bread knife, boning knife, chef's knife, honing steel, kitchen shears, four steak knives and a wooden block)!.

My girlfriend has this set!. She got it from ebay for a bit cheaper than mine (same style of set, but with a carrying case, and a serrated knife instead of a boning knife, as well as a smaller type of chef's knife in addition to the others, but no steak knives)!.

If you want to go all out, look at Wusthoff (but I'm warning you, a set of a utility knife, chef's knife, and honing steel can set you back about 500 bucks, and that's without the block to put them in)!. you don't want to nick one of those!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
