When I think Wusthof I think top of the line. I presumed this to be the case based on the reviews and the description. I was wrong:
PROS:
1. Plastic handle is corrosion and somewhat slip resistant.
2. Super sharp blade (aren’t all knives sharp out of the box?)
CONS:
1. Too small. If you have big hands, look elsewhere. I want a knife with a sharp blade to fit in my hand well. This knife did not fit the bill. Looks (the image) can be deceiving.
2. Flimsy blade. The blade bends, in my opinion, too easy.
3. The blade does not extend into the knife handle fully. I suppose this would not matter too much, however, I’m sure they skimped because of cost. Also, you will never know this to be the case by looking at the image.
IN SUMMARY:
Save your money and invest in a better paring knife. Believe it or not, I have resorted back to a paring knife from this set and it works wonderfully, is sized right, the blade runs fully into the handle and the blade is thick and strong: Pinzon 16-Piece Knife Block Set.

These paring knives are simply the best I have ever seen or used. Razor sharp,cuts meat or anything else with very little pressure. Highly Recommended!
