Closeouts. Once you experience the flawless balance and superlative cutting edge of the knives in Wusthof's Classic 14-Piece block set, you'll wonder how you managed to cook without them.

At first I was a little disappointed when I realized that the six steak knives were from the Gourmet Series. However, for the price I paid I would have been happy with just the set of eight from the classic series.

The steak knives are lesser quality than the other knives. CLASSIC is the designation for the set. The steak knives are GOURMET. If I had done further detailed research I may have noticed that in the description, but overall I am very pleased with this purchase. I'm not a gourmet cook, but will enjoy this set as the knives I had been using were far poorer quality. This set has all the basic knives I need.
Best Uses: All Cutting Chores
Cons: Block Has Minor Flaws
Pros: Drawer Space Freed, Good Looking set, Great quality knives

We replaced an old set of JAH knives and was amazed at how much sharper and lighter these were. So easy to use, we absolutely love them. One thing to note is the steak knives are from the "Gourmet" series, not "Classic". Not a problem, but I didn't realize until we got a good look at them.
