It’s is a very heavy set, knife block is very sturdy and smooth, knives came individually packaged and protected. Instruction booklet was very nice to read too. Some complained about chipping - not sharp - knife block broke - handles broke. I have no idea what they have done with their knives but we have already made 3 extremely large meals to feed 10-15 people each time, these knifes are amazing. Yes even the booklet says you have to make sure you wash - clean - dry and store only in the knife block. With the meals I have made so far - I have no idea what they have done to cause the damages And discoloring they have done. We will see what a year brings.
I was initially very hesitant to make the purchase, but the price dipped to a point where I was willing to take the risk. This apprehension toward buying a knife in the $30 to $40 from an unknown knife maker is, to me, understandable. There is a lot of things that can't be identified from simply looking at a picture on a screen. The way it forms to the hand, the ease of cutting, and cutting style of the holder can be as important as the components of the knife.
This knife is great. It comes out of the box razor sharp. It produced an elegant push cut and it respectably held the edge. I think for it's price you should definitely consider this as competition for a Mercer Renaissance or Victorinox knife. The advantage with this knife is that it has some bells and whistles along with being a forged knife. The steel is the same as the Renaissance, but the handle is really comfortable, although some may consider it a little bulky. I have fairly small hands, but I still found it comfortable for my grip.
One of the gimmicks I came to enjoy was the angled bolster. It was more comfortable than other bolsters but only slightly so. According to the Cangshan website, the bolster is meant to align and accommodate a firm and natural pinch grip. I've never had a problem prior to this, so I didn't notice a large difference
As far as performance goes, I think this knife works far better than the money I spent for it. It has a 16 degree edge, 58 rockwell hardness, and some nice packaging to go along with it.
If you are worried about performance, don't be. This knife is well made, and, in this price range, a really competitive deal.
I love everything about these knives. The creamy white handles might not be everyone's thing, but they resonate with me both in a magickal and mundane way (I wanted a bolline in the kitchen, not an athame). The handles are smooth and feel completely natural in the hand. They are made in a way that is hygienic and complies with all food safety requirements (NSF stamped on the blade as well). I imagine you could run them through the dishwasher if you absolutely had to, but it's not recommended; I personally wash them by hand immediately after using and store them in the block supplied. The block itself is very cool and unconventional, another draw card. It is sturdy on the benchtop, and the knives look exactly as pictured in the photos.
Bottom line: superb knives for the price. And if white is not your thing, I'm sure the black S Series is very much the same.
