Great knife se
Knives feel really expensive. The grip is nice, heavy but balanced knives. They are really easy to clean, no little holes or anything for food to get stuck. Sharpener is easy to use and safe since the knife locks in. The only thing that loses a star is that I feel the knives go blunt often and they don’t sharpen as much as I would like.

Very sharp knives where you can feel the quality, but one thing really annoys me
Even though I used to work in catering, at home I have always been happy with “good enough” knives. Pop down to Homesense and pick up a block for 30 or so and replace them every few years.

So spending this amount of money on a set of kitchen knives was something I am not used to, but decided to anyway as a treat to myself.

Opening the (very substantial) box and quickly testing the utility knife on a piece of fruit, I was shocked about how sharp it was. Even in my catering days I can’t remember any of the knives I used passing through an orange so cleanly. Almost like it wasn’t there.

So the knives are all great and the knife block also feels sturdy, especially with the suction feet on the base. Haven’t yet tried the sharpener, but I would assume it does the job it is supposed to.

So why only 4 stars and not 5? Aesthetics. Specifically of the handles, but also of the block.

Firstly the handles. They ALWAYS look dirty/dusty. When I unpacked it I assumed they were covered in a fine layer of dust from manufacturing/packaging, so tried to wash them straight away in warm soapy water. Nope, they still looked dusty (and not even an even layer of dust). Ran them through the dishwasher, the same. This is no way affects the usage but when the sunlight hits the handles through the kitchen window it annoys me every time.

I realise this is a design choice by someone at Ninja…. I just wish they used a different material that delivered a cleaner-looking finish. Especially for a product at this price.

The other annoyance for me is the knives sitting horizontally and not vertically. It feels awkward trying to get a knife back into the block, while trying not to stab and scratch the chrome-effect surround, and it also means the handles never quite line up properly (those aesthetics again). Also, my left-handed wife seems to have more trouble than I do, but that may just be her getting used to it.

So in conclusion, great knives that aren’t quite as elegant as I want them to look.

Fantastic Knife Set with Integrated Sharpene
I recently acquired the Ninja StaySharp Knife Set and I have to say, it has completely exceeded my expectations. The sleek design of the knives themselves is not only visually appealing but also practical, with a comfortable weight that makes them easy to handle. The built-in sharpener in the block is a game-changer, ensuring that the knives are always sharp and ready for use without any extra effort on my part. This feature has saved me time and hassle in maintaining the sharpness of the knives, making it a convenient addition to my kitchen.

One standout feature of this knife set is the inclusion of kitchen scissors, which have proven to be a handy tool for various tasks in the kitchen. The high-quality stainless steel blades have impressed me with their sharpness, precision, and durability. From slicing vegetables to cutting bread, each knife has performed exceptionally well and has become essential in my culinary tasks. The ergonomic handles provide a comfortable grip, especially during long periods of chopping or slicing.

While the large block may take up some counter space, its balance and suction cups ensure that it stays securely in place. The white design may show signs of wear over time, but the practicality of the set outweighs any minor aesthetic concerns. Overall, I would highly recommend the Ninja StaySharp Knife Set to anyone looking for a reliable and convenient set of knives for their kitchen. It not only looks great on the countertop but also delivers on performance, making it a worthwhile investment that you can truly feel the difference with.
