My first knife set since I bought my Chicago Cutlery block set about 20 years ago. What really attracted me to this type of set was the built in knife sharpener. Amazing way to improve product functionality and a real benefit to the cook in the family. Cutting with dull knives (remembering to sharpen) is dangerous, difficult to cut properly, and in the event of an accidental cut, a sharp knife cut is less severe. Its a no brainer, assuming the knife construction quality is as good as conventional knife sets. What sold me on this set was a little research into the excellent construction, feel and balance of the knives BUT most importantly, I know that when Ninja goes into a market it is to fill a gap that the traditional market is not meeting or is doing so in a limited way. And Ninja quality and effectiveness from my experience (I've bought the original Ninja food processor and the Ninja Coffee Bar with side frother) is excellent . So two weeks ago I gave them another chance to excel, and excel they did! I love this set! FL

This knife set comes with an attractive holder and 8 very sharp knives and a pair of scissors. It also has its own sharpening system to keep the knives and scissors sharp. I love this knife set.

I have these and bought them for my Son and my Daughter. We love them! We all love the Ninja Neverstick Anti-scratch pots and pans too. So far we love every Ninja product we have gotten.

I love, love, love my Ninja knives. I cook a lot which means I chop a lot of foods. I can't tell you how many knife sets I've bought in my lifetime. Always trying to find a sharp knife. Well I've bought my last set. At long last, these knives are so sharp. And I love the white ones.

Sharpest knives ever. I had one sitting on my drying mat (do not put in the dishwasher) and barely brushed my knuckle on one and bled profusely. I wish there were more of them or more room in the holder to add other knives but overall these are spendy but seem worth it.

These are amazing! They are incredibly sharp so as with all knives you have to handle carefully. For myself, they a a little higher in price than what I have previously spent on my other knife set. That being said, these are an investment. Can't go wrong with them. I'm glad I purchased and have recommended to several people.

This is a perfect set of knives for any home. I have never been able to keep my knives sharp until I purchased this set. I had a set pf J A Henckels but could never get them really sharp and it has been about 20 years. I purchased these and realized how dull my other set really was. The knife sharpener is very easy to use and works. I highly recommend buying these knives and I don't think you will need to buy another set. This has all that you need.

Knives seem sharp and well made. Handles were not all uniform in color--a few seemed faded as though stored in extreme heat. The block is gigantic because the sharpener is built in... would be more versatile if smaller so it would look nice on any part of the kitchen counter.

Overall I'm pleased with the product, especially at that price point! I've gone through many sets throughout the years & this is my favorite so far. Likes: - Knives are sharp - On the heavier side & don't feel cheap - Sharpener works great - Price - Set includes kitchen essentials Dislikes: - Shavings are left behind after sharpening - Unit is large & occupies lots of counter space - Handles on small knives are shaped too thin causing hands to slip onto the blade - Inserting knives back into the unit isn't always effortless with the blade going into the plastic

I love this knife set. Other than the bread and steak knives, each knife has it's own designated sharpener hole that are labeled with the knife's name. I would have given it 5 stars, but the block is huge and takes up a lot of counter top space.
