The knife set is delivered in a representative box. The knife blades are individually wrapped and provided with tip protection. The knives are easy to hold and the workmanship is excellent. They are very sharp. The carving knife has serrations at the tip of the blade, which makes it very easy to cut and remove meat from the bone. The knives should be cleaned by hand and not in the dishwasher to keep them sharp. The set is well suited as basic equipment. For the price you can't go wrong.
