I have owned a 6" Wusthof Classic for about 30 years, so getting some steak knives seemed only logical. They are by far the best knives to have in your drawer! The 6" Classic is my "go to knife" and the steak knives are right up there as well. It is very tempting to use these steak knives as my everyday knife, but so far I have resisted that temptation. Excellent feel, and the blade is razor sharp. I couldn't be happier! I highly recommend these steak knives! Thank you!!

Excellent everyday steak knife.
Good quality for the price. If you don't want to go to the expense of a forged knife, these are a very good alternative.
Holds an edge well if not abused.
Wusthof products have never let me down.

I don't spend a lot of time in the kitchen and did not know the difference really fine knives could make when preparing food until I purchased my first Wusthof knife. These steak knives live up to all my expectations of a Wusthof product.

I had priced these knives both on and off line, this was the best value. Our kids gave us a starter set of Wusthof Knives for Christmas a year ago. I know you pay for what you get but some of the places I checked were double the price for only 4 knives. I love my steak knives. Wouldn't trade them for any others.

I didn't realize how bad my older steak knives had gotten. We raise our own beef and it's very tender, but these knives made cutting a steak like slicing melted butter. Great balance in your hand, not over-sized unwieldy like some knives.

This set of Wusthof steak knives replaces a previous set which we have used heavily for the past 15 years. Any set of steak knives that can take that kind of abuse are certainly worthy of heavy praise. And to get them at a discount through Chefs made it an even sweeter deal!

These knives are well made. They cut well and look great. We are happy with them.
The box isn't quite as nice as I expected it would be, but it's serviceable. If I were buying them again, I'd consider buying a set with a more durable box, since that is where we will be storing them.

I have been thinking about buying another set of steak knives for quite awhile. Well, other priorities came up. The decision was made, the order placed, the knives arrived, and WOW! Sure wish that I had not waited so long. Just super, I'd recommend them to anyone at anytime!

We have Hinkle steak knives, but needed more than four. I bought these Wusthof after having several of their knives. They're great! I recommend these for nice basic steak knives. They fell nice when cutting through meat and very sharp!

I agree with the first review... Ours are splitting slightly, too. However, to be fair, ours are often put in the dishwasher and I was always told by my mom "never put wooden handled utensils in the dishwasher!" Though Wusthof says they're dishwasher safe, but best not to... they really should be handled like regular knives, which I never put in that box! I need to replace some and I think I'll go with the more expensive ones now. You get what you pay for...

Not worth the money

These knives are not a product typical of Wusthof. They do not keep their edge. They bend while cutting into steak or other meat. After one year, the handles started split and crack slightly. You are better off spending another $100.00 for 4 classic steak knives.
