A kitchen is nothing without a good set of knives. You've got to have knives that you feel comfortable using, for cutting, slicing, chopping, dicing, etc., to prepare beautiful meals. The Epicurean Necessities Ceramic Knife set fits this bill.
I received my knives very quickly after ordering. They came boxed in a really nice, fitted box with a magnetic closure. This set could easily be wrapped and given as a gift. I don't plan on doing that. They have already found their way into my hands and my kitchen.
The set comes with 3 knives - a 6" Chef's knife, a 5" Utility knife, and a 3" Paring knife, plus safety sheaths to cover the blades, as well as a peeler. The ceramic blades are very sharp, as you'll see in one of my pictures, where I slipped and cut myself. These blades cannot be resharpened, but should maintain their sharpness for a long time with proper use and care.
I love all 3 knives, but the Paring knife is my favorite. I have used it multiple times already. It is great for preparing fruit. All the knives have a good grip, although they could be a bit more slip-resistant. The knives are not heavy at all, but lightweight.
I don't care for the peeler. It is sharp, and could cut you easily. That isn't the issue. It doesn't peel as well as my other peeler. It peels smaller pieces and takes longer to get the job done. However, this is just my opinion. Others may love it.
You cannot cut through bones or frozen foods with these knives. You may chip the blade, ruining the knife. They are not serrated for cutting bread, but will cut most anything else you want to cut.
The description states that these knives are dishwasher safe. I personally don't wash mine in the dishwasher. I wash them by hand, dry them well, and replace the safety sheaths before putting them away.
All in all, these knives are a very nice set of knives, and priced well.
