Cracked Handles 
I ordered these knives and received 1 knife with a cracked handle. Amazon sent a replacement and all 4 handles were cracked in the same location. In addition, 2 of the replacement knives were cracked in 2 locations.
Mistake
I just wrote a review but it was for a different Chicago Cutlery knife set and I mistakenly reviewed this one.
With the right sharpener..
I have been eating my way to slimness. This involves cutting a LOT of fruit and vegtables. These walnut knives with the SpyderCo tri-angle sharpener makes these knives the sharpest I have EVER used.
THESE ARE REAL CUT-UPS!
When we bought our summer cabin some six years ago we also invested in what we considered to be economical linens, kitchen ware, etc., to be left at the cabin so it wasn't a major move at the beginning and end of each season. We chose a set of four steak knives by Chicago Cutlery made by World Kitchens. These knives have outlasted most of the other original purchases for our kitchen and dining. We couldn't be more pleased with the price we paid or the performance of the knives.
It's nice that Chicago Cutlery offers a lifetime warranty for the life of their products, but we certainly don't need it!

cutting edge
These are great knives. I wish that I could put them in the dishwasher, but oh well, I knew that when I ordered them. They keep an edge for a long time, and look great.
