The differences in quality and performance of different kitchen knife sets vary about as much as the price of these sets do. It is difficult to decide which knife set to buy because you want to ensure that you’re not spending too much, but also not spending too little and getting a set that won’t last you a month. The best knife brands sets out there all have certain features that you should ensure your next set of knives has. Choosing a brand after that is up to personal preference and budget.
1) All of the best knife sets on the market today come with lifetime warranties. If the set you are thinking about buying does not come with a lifetime warranty, skip it. This shows lack of confidence in the product by the manufacturer and probably for good reason. There are surely flaws in the production process of the knives or in the materials used to make the knife.
2) Full tang. This means that the blade extends all the way through the handle to the back. This ensures strength and durability. The blade is not just attached to the end of the handle where it could easily be snapped off.
3) High caliber stainless steel. Knives that are made of high caliber stainless steel are sharper than knives that aren’t, hold their sharpness longer and will be much more resistant to rust. There are several different grades of high caliber stainless steel so the knives that are made of the highest grades have the most benefits.
4) Forged, not stamped. I won’t get too technical here in the differences between forged and stamped knives other than to say that stamped knives are basically stamped out of a thin piece of metal, similar to the way cookies are cut out of dough. Forged knives are handcrafted and much more durable and strong in every way. Forged knives are vastly superior to stamped knives.
The best knife sets are not hard to pick out if you know what to look for.
