Now, these knives aint yer ole run-of-the-mill knives. These are Damascus style blades. The Samurai of ancient Japan weilded swords made in a similar fashion, althought the arts of making such blades has been lost for ages. In recent work, a technique to produce blades that match the best museum-quality wootz Damascus blades in both surface appearance and internal microstructure has been developed. Im not saying that these knives are of museum quality woots Damascus, but they are made in similar style. These may actually be pattern welded Damascus, Im not sure.

If you have the money and you need some knives, I would NOT pass this up. We all know the Calphalon brand, and I know people in the restaurant industry that spend upward of $100 for a single knife of this style. I am not saying that these knives necessarily match the quality of those $100 knives, but what do you expect for $40 epr knife?

I wish I hadn't gotten those Cuisinart ones now. I have the money, but do I need a fourth set of knives..... You know, I think I do.

Yes, they are. Henkels and Wusthof are the probably the two most popular brands of high-end knives.
