The block also accommodates serrated knives, whose toothed blades never require sharpening. In addition to the specialty knives, the set includes and neatly stores six steak knives and a pair of versatile kitchen shears.

ERGONOMIC COMFORT: The knives in this set are designed with user comfort and control in mind. The ergonomic, traditional triple-rivet handles provide maximum maneuverability and minimize fatigue during extended cutting tasks. Curved for a comfortable grip, the break-proof handles give you the control you need to effortlessly slice through tougher ingredients. The seamless transition from blade to handle, a result of the knives' fully forged construction, provides excellent balance.
