Amazon.com Review:
Moderately priced companions to Wüsthof's renowned Classicforged knives, Gourmet Series knives have the same full-tang,three-rivet, virtually indestructible poly handles as Classic knives.Instead of being forged, however, Gourmet Series blades are cut fromsteel sheets by precision lasers. That means they have no bolsters. Butit also means they are perfectly shaped and fit their handlesseamlessly. And the blades' high-carbon stainless steel is identical tothat of Wüsthof's premium knives, only thinner.The three paring knives in this set equip a kitchen for all essential"little" tasks. One knife has a 3-inch blade with a straight edge and adrop point, ideal for uniformly cutting carrots into disks or peachesinto slices. Another has a 3-inch blade with a curved edge and a sharppoint, ideal for peeling fruits and vegetables and removing blemishes.The third has a sharply curved blade known as a bird's beak for shapingvegetables. All three knives are dishwasher-safe, but hand washing isrecommended to protect their edges. --Fred Brack

Rating: - Set of small paring knives
Three wonderful small sharp paring knives which are incredibly sharp and great to use for a variety of small cutting tasks.This it the first time I have bought and used Wusthof paring knives, and I thought the ones I had were quite satisfactory until I used the Wusthof knives.I will never go back to using economy knives again - I have been spoiled.
Rating: - Excellent knife set
I bought this knife set mostly because i needed a paring knife. I also wanted the Wusthof brand since all of my other knives are that brand and have proved to be of superb quality.
The price is what attracted me to this set. I figured it would be better to get more knives for this price rather than one paring knife for about the same price. At first,wasn't convinced that I would use the other two knives with the set until I received them. Now i use the other two more than I use the paring ... Read More
