Customer Reviews of Chicago Cutlery Cabrera 12-Piece Knife Block Set
Customer Rating: Summary: awesome set Comment: I bought this set for my sister-in-law for Christmas. I have a set that I love but no steak knives. My sister-in-law was so excited when she got it she used right away. This set is very very nice and the do last the test of time. I would recommend this product to anyone! Customer Rating: Summary: Not Good... Comment: I am displeased with this purchase. The knives dull quickly and rust spots appear after the first use. Plus, steak knives don't even have "teeth." Sure, it is a decent price, but I would suggest spending more on a better set. Customer Rating: Summary: Little Good and better stuff!! Comment: Nice product. Sharp and lasting. Only Cons: Shipping is slow because it is free. Customer Rating: Summary: Good Knives Comment: Good knives for the price. Very sharp, good looking , and with good weight. Customer Rating: Summary: Cut the cutlery Comment: Extremely disappointing product. Minimal usage and rust spots appearing on blades after first cleaning in a dishwasher. Food is generally difficult to remove even when hand washing. A very attractive set but difficulty to get really clean which makes you not want to use it. There is quite a bit of flex in the blades also. More Reviews The Carbera line from Chicago Cutlery features traditional three-rivet styling, yet the handles are made of white polymer for a clean, bright, contemporary look. Even the slots in the hardwood storage block are lined with the white polymer, while the top is surfaced with stainless steel. A chrome bar supports the block in front. Each knife features a forged, high-carbon stainless-steel blade that has been honed with the company's exclusive Taper Grind technology for optimum sharpness. The full-tang construction adds weight and strength for good balance and stability. Along with the hardwood block, this 12-piece set includes the following 11 utensils: four steak knives; 3-1/2-inch paring knife; 5-inch utility knife; 5-inch partoku; 7-inch santoku; 8-inch serrated bread knife; kitchen shears; and 8-inch sharpening steel. A partoku, for those unfamiliar with the term, is a combination paring knife and santoku, the Asian-style, thin-slicing chef's knife that has become a staple of American kitchens in recent years. Chicago Cutlery recommends hand-washing its knives, and covers them with a limited lifetime warranty. With the utensils placed in the block, the set measures 13 by 4-1/2 by 12 inches. --Ann Bieri What's in the Box Choosing Appliance -> Shopping Dryer When shopping for a new clothes dryer, look for one with a moisture sensor that automatically shuts off the machine when your clothes are dry. Not only will this save energy, it will save wear and tear on your clothes caused by over-drying. Keep in mind that gas dryers are less expensive to operate than electric dryers. The cost of drying a typical load of laundry in an electric dryer is 30 to 40 cents compared to 15 to 25 cents in a gas dryer. Choosing Appliance -> Shopping Washer When shopping for a new washer, look for a front loading (horizontal-axis) machine. This machine may cost more to buy but uses about a third of the energy and less water than a top-loading machine. With a front loader, you'll also save more on clothes drying, because they remove more water from your clothes during the spin cycle. Look for the Energy Star label. Chicago Cutlery Cabrera 12-Piece Knife Block Set Kitchen tips -> Cut raw meat When trying to cut thin slices or strips of raw meat, it is easier if you put the meat into the freezer for 30 minutes to an hour before cutting to help firm up the meat, or if the meat was frozen, slice it before it is completely thawed |
