Amazon.com Review
Many associate Ginsu knives with the product's kitschy infomercial from the `70s that begins with a karate kick to a watermelon and proceeds with a demo of these knives cutting through just about anything in the house. Like the original product, Ginsu's International Traditions is designed for the home cook who is not attuned to the maintenance required of a more high-end knife. However, this line is an improvement on the original, offering the weight, balance, and style of a commercial-quality knife, while meeting current design trends and performance expectations.

This 14-piece set stocks a kitchen with most cutlery needs, and packs all knives in a contemporary black hardwood storage block. The set includes: an 8-inch chef's knife, an 8-inch slicer, an 8-inch bread knife, a 5-inch boning knife, a 4-1/2-inch utility knife, a 3-1/2-inch paring knife, and six 4-1/2-inch steak knives, plus a pair of shears.

Ginsu blades are constructed from stainless steel and feature a two-dimensional serrated edge that is symmetrically cut on either side for more accurate slicing and for either right- or left-handed use. Edges are still as low-maintenance as ever and never require sharpening. The blades have full tangs that extend through lightweight bakelite handles and are triple-riveted for strength. Ginsu covers these International Traditions knives under a limited, lifetime warranty and recommends manual cleaning with hot, soapy water to keep them in top shape. --Cristina Vaamonde

5 out of 5 stars Delightful Tools   October 6, 2008
enthusiast (trinidad,west-indies)
This knife set is attractive in presentation but what is even more delightful is its reliability. the knives are sharp and makes food preparation stressless.
Its good value to cost.



5 out of 5 stars Fantastic set for the money!!!   October 6, 2008
Momto3Boys (Grand Rapids, MI)
Looks good, simple and knives are plenty sharp to get the job done. Scissors are great and for the price you really can't beat it! Sometimes the knives don't smoothly go back into their spots but a couple tries and they're in - no biggie. Nice and sharp and exactly what I was looking for!!!


5 out of 5 stars Great Knives   September 19, 2008
grovemommy (Cedar Grove, NJ)
These knives are terrific. I haven't found a thing that they don't slice right through! Even steak isn't a challenge for these knives! My husband always used to complain about our other set, but since getting these he hasn't complained once. The knives also cut through fruits and veggies without making a mess. I highly recommend these to anyone looking to buy a quality set of knives!


5 out of 5 stars Sharp!   September 13, 2008
Ian (B-ham, WA)
I was washing these and they cut clean through the bristled sponge I was using. I'm concerned about the longevity of the sharpness, but I'll review again in a few months after heavy use. So far they are great, look good and cut well!


3 out of 5 stars Good starter set   September 13, 2008
BRKLYN (NY, NY)
If you are on a budget but need good sharp knives to last you for a little while...these are great! They are sharp and they do their job well. But be warned, these do rust after about 8 months if you aren't careful. I suggest washing after every time you use them and don't put them in the dishwasher to make them last longer. Other than that, they are sharp enough for general kitchen cutting,
