Still in our kitchen, after 25 years…. – T Boyer – Seattle
We’ve experimented with the five star German Wusthofs and Henckels but they never really won us over. Their steel is so hard they almost require professional sharpening, and who wants to add that to your schedule every few months.

By contrast, these old Chicago Cutlery blades are still in our kitchen after 25 years. The carbon steel in these is just right — hard enough to hold an edge, but soft enough to respond to a sharpening steel. And when it’s time for a new edge, an expensive ceramic stick or hand sharpener will carve one for you quickly.

The 8″ chef’s knife is a very sweet little size if the standard 10″ seems a little unwieldy to you. The 5 inch flexible boning/sandwich knife is outstanding — a fantastic poultry knife. The 7 1/2 inch fillet is thin, flexible but durable — just as good as you could buy for 5-10 times the price. The only one of these I would throw away is the that clumsy paring knife — I like something a little more nimble. The old Walnut set used to come with a thin-bladed parer.

My kitchen would have this set supplemented with two Dexter-Russel Sani-Safe commercial knives — a parer and a 10″ chef’s knife. The Sani-Safes are high quality (but inexpensive) carbon steel blades that are quick to sharpen and can go in the dishwasher.
