I purchased these at a discount from Amazon.ca because I don't really have any good steak knives and when I received these I was truly surprised at how nice these were. They came in a very nice gift box and the knives are very high quality. They have a great weight to them and cut through meat extremely well. The steel in these knives run from the tip of the knife all the way through the handle making them very sturdy. I would defiantly purchase these again as a gift for someone. Great purchase!
