My wife and I have friends who are wine snobs (we hide the Black Box Merlot when they come over) and they also happen to be kitchen knife snobs.
We love them dearly but were always embarrassed when they were helping out in our kitchen and used our dull, big-box store knives as they always complained about how dull our knives always were.
So I used their knives once when we were in their kitchen and realized how bad our knives actually were.
They had a quality set that seemed balanced, felt nice in my hand and the edges were amazing as they cut with ease.
It was time to explore Consumer Reports, Shopsmart and other rating services including a well rated Rachael Ray Set in our search of a quality set for our kitchen.
