What I like is these are all metal. No wooden handles to fall off. I recommend them.Just bought these for a charcuterie board present! They’re very gold and seen to be sturdy! I haven’t washed them yet though so we will seeI will most definitely get more in the future. They are in great condition and when presented on a charcuterie board looks really chic. Got many compliments and questions about where I purchased them. Definitely recommend.This set is sturdy and the finish looks great. I like that they are a one piece design. Perfect gift item as well.I got a great charcuterie board at Crate and Barrell that had this brassy/gold color in the middle and these matched exactly. They are a great weight and high end. The gift was impressive and cool. Go for these without hesitation!I wanted to give this as a gift with a cheese board. Description says giftable. This is NOT giftable!! It comes with the knives wrapped in bubble wrap, taped with packing tape and then put in a cheap flimsy damaged paper box. Not presentable at all. Pay the couple extra dollars to get the nice box set. So disappointed and returning.My son love themLove it!
