I recently bought these knives because I have been following Mandy on youtube for some time and have been making many of her recipes. A little while ago I purchased her wok, which is also a phenomenal cooking vessel, and decided to buy these as well. They are balanced very well, and are sharp as the dickens out of the box. I purchased a honing rod at the same time, so I can keep them sharp of the years to come. I really like having the three different styles of knives for different uses while cooking. I always clean them by hand and make sure they are completely dry before putting them away. These are an absolute steal for the price and I look forward to using them for many years to come.
Ultra sharp, as my finger can attestify. I only used the cook’s knife for the first time this morning, to score the rind on a gammon joint for crackling. It slid through the rind like a hot knife through butter. I really bought the set for the cleaver, but think that each knife will get used a great deal. I can thoroughly recommend them.
Just the knives I need to do my daily chopping. Thanks for the instructions on use, sharpening and safety of use.
At this price, it is impressive.
Good balance and sharpness out of box.
These are very sturdy and well made. The seem to hold an edge well, not to mention that they are just beautiful. I really LOVE the Cleaver, my wife is scared to death of the thing.
Do I know great knives? No.
Have I worked in a kitchen 20 years? Also No.
Am I incredibly happy with these? Oh you bet.
They are laser sharp, seem to be well made, gorgeous to look at and when you use them you feel like a master chef. The packaging is top notch and makes a wonderful storage case. Get these for yourself and unlock your culinary greatness or get one as a present for a loved one, either way it’s a smart buy. Enjoy
I love these knives. They’re quickly becoming a go to in my knife roll.
Beautiful Damascus knife set. Arrived sharp. Good value. Reasonable price.
Honestly I did not need these knives, but I love the YouTube channel that these were promoted on Souped Up Recipes, and her Wok was a solid purchase.
Knives are as advertised and came in a beautiful package. I do get compliments on the blade and handle. I have nothing bad to say against these knives, coming from a person who is used to using Victorinox Chef Knives. Its been over a couple of months and the chef and cleaver are sharp (I do hone with each use).
Would I buy this again? At the $99 price, heck yes.
My son bought these for his first set of knives and we have been using them this summer while she has been learning to cook. They are the most beautiful set of knives I have ever seen and feel very balanced and wonderful in the hand.
I love following the recipes from Souped Up Recipe Channel on Youtube, and their chef-brand items are definitely well functional without worrying about the rating as they are carefully reviewed before being put out. thus I can pick up them for myself and later on maybe gifting to my family members as these items are really lifetime items.
Sharp, beautiful, and well-balanced! Slicing was effortless with these knives. I am very happy with them!
Great quality knives! These have been used daily since I bought them. My wife and I were able to cut much of our food with relative ease and little resistance. These do require some extra care, but the packaging does include helpful notes on maintaining them. I baby these now 🙂
Excellent knives: Solid construction, Sharp, Feels good in the hand, Aesthetically pleasing
I have been looking for a set of Damascus Kitchen Knives as well as a cleaver. I have been using them for 2 weeks now, and they are wonderful. Very Sharp, and easy to maintain. The balance on the paring knife and chef’s knife is good, and I found them easy to use. With the cleaver, I have been slicing meat and veggies and found it easy to use. I am considering getting a second set as a gift for a family member.
Comfortable in my hand. Can achieve super thin slices of mushrooms and onions now. Well weighted. Highly recommend. Have been using the clever for months now and I rarely use my other knives as this is wonderful for slicing chopping dicing.
We watch Mandy and Souped Up Recipes all the time and we have her wok that she sells also. The items are really good and great quality for the price. Please note though that these are items that do require a little more care and attention than your standard basic cookware, but instructions are given with the packaging which are easy to follow and comprehensive.
The knives are nicely weighted, come in good packaging that I’ve kept as will be useful for transporting them when moving. Also great looking and sharp!
Definite utility and undeniably beautiful. I look forward to using this set for years to come!
I’m very happy with these beautiful knives. They feel great in the hand with a well-shaped handle and are very sharp. I have several artisan-made Japanese Damascus knives that cost several hundred dollars each. These knives from “Souped up Recipes” are very similar in appearance but cost less than a one tenth of the price. It’s a bargain for a knife made in such a complex manner as layered Damascus steel
A beautiful knife set. An excellent value just like her wok, it’s great. The knife set I just got today and have used the chef’s knife and the cleaver. They’re all three beautiful, well balanced, and feels great in my hand. I will follow up in a few months with an update.
I watch her video’s and she talked about these knives. I bought them and Amazon delivered the same day. They are really impressive, and super sharp. Well balanced. It quickly became apparent these are the best knives I have owned, and the price was a bargain. Even the packaging reflected the quality of what was inside, very much like Apple does with their products. I’m really happy with the product.
Everything looks great so far! Packaging was well designed to keep the knives safe during shipping. The selection of knives (utility, chef, cleaver) is a great selection of knives that covers a very wide range of common use cases. I’ve attached some photos comparing with my Shibazizuo and Shun knives. The cleaver is undoubtedly a huge upgrade upgrade over the Shibazizuo cleaver. As you can see from the photos, they both come out to the exact same weight, but the slightly smaller size of the Souped Up Recipes cleaver means that weight is packed into a denser blade. That extra density combined with the famously hard sharpness of the high grade Damascus steel results in a noticeably smoother cutting experience. The handle is well sculpted to seamlessly blend with the steel, similar to the Shun blades (which is a big compliment!). Looking forward to following along with many more Souped Up Recipes using these knives!
I tried my original knives first for a comparison and tried cut a raw potato with my old knives and had resistance, but when I cut some potatoes with the new knives it was like slicing through butter. The cuts were effortless, smooth, and the weight have the handle made the blade feel very balance and I didn’t need to brace myself or apply any pressure…..These knives are amazing.
These beautiful knives will take their honorable place in my kitchen right next to Mandy’s clay pot and chop sticks. I use all of these items at least a few times a week. It didn’t take long to realize what an excellent value her products are. Almost forgot my favorite- her wok- it’s superb. I must’ve used it a hundred times now and it still works like new. Back to the knives- I just got them and have only used the chef’s knive so far but they’re all 3 equally beautiful and feel great in my hand. Especially the chef’s knife- the handle, balance and weight feel perfect to me. Clearly a lot of expertise went into making this set and it’s a steal for the price.
