Product Description 8" Chef / 9" Bread / 6" Utility / 5" Serrated Utility / 3.5" Paring / 10" Sharpener / Forged Kitchen Shears / Bamboo Knife Storage Block
Amazon.com Review Branching out from its already successful cookware line, Anolon's Advanced collection features high-grade materials with substantial weight. This 8-piece set packs all the essentials including: an 8-inch chef knife, a 3-1/2-inch parer, a 9-inch bread knife, a 5-inch serrated utility knife, and a 6-inch utility knife. A 10-inch sharpener is included for daily honing and polishing the knife blades. The set also offers a pair of forged kitchen shears for cutting poultry or string. All pieces fit into a handsome bamboo block with labeled slots for each knife in the set and a few extra unlabeled slots for additions. Though the serrated blades (bread and utility knives) produce nice clean cuts, the other cutlery is slightly dull right out of the box. Immediate sharpening on a fine steel is recommended before using these knives to bring their edges to a sharper and safer angle for exact and injury-free cutting. Advanced Collection knives feature blades forged from high-quality German carbon steel that resists rust and food stains. The stainless steel is ice-hardened for additional strength and longer edge retention. Blades are then polished with glass to produce an edge that is meant to be simultaneously sharp but smoother to the touch. Full tangs and counter balance caps provide superior balance, while rounded blade spines add more comfort during extended periods of prepping. Ergonomically-shaped handles with cushioned non-slip Santoprene padding offer a secure, comfortable grip--even when cutting with wet hands. Anolon guarantees this cutlery under a lifetime limited warranty and, for proper maintenance, recommends hand washing and immediately drying knives. --Cristina Vaamonde What's in the Box 5-inch serrated utility knife, 8-inch chef knife, 9-inch bread knife, 6-inch utility knife, 3-1/2-inch parer, 10-inch sharpener, forged kitchen shears, bamboo block

Great Set, For The Price January 17, 2008 I actually had to purchase this Anolon set through e-bay, but only after not finding it available on Amazon and reading all the reviews here. I purchased it for nearly, if not the same price, as when Amazon had it on sale at about $50 (rather than the MSRP of $150). Yes, the metal tags had tarnish on them (even though it was obviously a brand new set that had never been used or removed from its original packaging). But, I took a reviewer's advice (M. E. Vineyard "Old Trucker" from Ft. Wayne, IN), and the tarnish came off quickly and immediately, leaving shiny tags. Also, one of the tags came off, when cleaning them, but wood epoxy was used, like another reviewer advised. Thanks to both of the reviewers for giving me info to know what to expect and how to remedy it, without frustration; and now, I can send my sister a beautiful birthday gift of Anolon cutlery that coordinates with her Anolon cookware.

I got this for my daughter Jody who lives in Wales UK. She said that it replaced nearly all the "junk" knives that they had in the kitchen. She's a city girl turned farm girl and uses whatever utensils she had or can get. Having this delivered to her door was a real treat.

My anolon 8 piece knife set has just arrived and I am impressed with the quality and weight of each knife. I have never owned a good knife set such as wustoff or hienkel but this is far better than any that I have owned. They look indestructable. They are made of one solid piece of stainless steel from point to the butt. If the steel is as good as everyone says they should last a lifetime.
Anolon 52616 Advanced Collection 8-Piece Knife Set May 13, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
A wonderfull knife at an unbelievable PRICE. I had owned a 10 inch chef knife that I bought at a dept store by the same manufacture so I knew the quality was there. This one knife I bought, was orginally priced at $100 I only bought it because it was clearanced at 75% off. So when I saw this item I jumped and bought 3 sets, two for gifts and the third for my self. Great weight, they hold an edge, for what seems like for ever. Would highly suggest a set for all. The block is nice because there are a few empty slots for knives you already own or for that special knife you hope to purchase in the future. I read all the reviews before I bought and would agree with those fine folks that its a great buy.
