They’re decent knives. Do you need all of them or would it make more sense to buy 2-3 individually that you will use all the time?

1. Bottom line: don’t buy sets – buy the individual knives you NEED. You will only use the knives you use and will end up with a bunch of knives you use once or twice a month just because you have them. 2. Why is this here and not in r/chefknives or something like that?

Agree with other posters, get individual knives as you most likely will just use 3 of the ones in this set in most cases (chef, pairing and bread knife)

I have a similar set, just in a different block, and I use all 6 regularly. It’s a well thought out core set, so I say go for it! I bought direct from Global during a great holiday sale, so I do suggest getting on their email list and monitoring prices!

Are you really going to use 7 knives?
I have 5 knives in a block but I only use 3 of them on a regular basis.
Chef’s knife, use all the time
Paring knife, use all the time
Serrated knife, use for cutting delicate things like bread or tomatoes.
