Black Tiger Handmade Damascus Knife set (Waterproof)

Worked as intended

It’s good product

These knives hit the mark for everyday kitchen use—sharp, versatile, and comfortable to handle. The balanced design and clean, modern look make them both practical and nice to display. They’re easy to clean, come with tip covers for added safety, and offer excellent value for the price.A few of the knives aren’t quite as refined as the others, and it’s unclear what material the handles are made from. They’re not razor-sharp like some high-end options, but for most cooking tasks, they perform really well. Solid choice for home cooks looking for quality without breaking the bank.

I got this 5-piece knife set for my husband for Father’s Day. He’s super picky about his kitchen tools—especially knives—so I wasn’t sure if these would meet his standards, but he really loves them!He’s used them for everything and said they’re sharp and feel good in the hand. He also mentioned he liked the quality.One thing we both really liked is that they come with tip covers for each knife. It’s a small detail, but it makes storing them in a drawer way safer and helps keep the blades protected.Definitely a win in our book. If you’re shopping for yourself or a gift, these are nice.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I was going to give this product 2 or 3 stars but then I remembered that it was a pretty low cost point and reversed course. These knives are "ok" in my book and get the job done. I would not order them if you're not capable of sharpening them since they will require some maintenance to make them truly last. My set arrived very sharp, but it only took a handful of used to notice a decline in performance. Right now these are sitting at about 45 bucks on this site. I would say that's fair for 5 usable knives that are actually pretty good looking. My japanese knives cost nearly 200 dollars EACH, so I'm trying not to compare these to those. However, it's hard not to directly compare them since these knives have a fake folded steel look laser printed onto the surface of the blade. Do not be fooled, these are NOT folded Damascus steel blades. These are basically stainless steel like what your kitchen forks are made of. They can be sharpened, and work really well though. I like the handles the most about these knives. They are attractive and have a nice finish to them when you're using the tool in the kitchen. They almost seem TOO nice to be on these blades to tell you the truth. They are the redeeming factor that keeps my review at 4 stars instead of 3. Speaking of the handles, I don't love how light these knives are. Each one weighs about 20-30% less than an equally sized high quality knife. That may not be a big deal to you, but I find it annoying and less fun to use these. Overall if you're looking to get a knife set for a young new home owner - these are pretty good and you get a lot more for the money than most knife sets. If you're looking to up your kitchen game, you probably already know that spending less than 50 dollars on a SET of knives isn't going to impress  you. However, you really do get a lot more than you pay for at this price, so I'm mixed about recommending these.
