Will you buy these

Got the link from another forum. What do you think?

ESEE Knives

 

[billyboyr6]

I would if they were reasonably priced, just because they would carry the esee warranty.

 

[Ambu]

Probably gonna be priced sky high.

 

[El T]

Not right away, but I think I will try a set out...later than sooner.

i don't like the way they look, design wise. but that is just personal opinion.

the thing i don't like in the PRINT is "german stainless steel"... um.....ok. that doesn't really tell us anything.

it is made by ESEE so it will get an instant fan base. and the warranty is fantastic.

Well even though I am a direct dealer with ESEE I will only order these at a customers request. I will probably order a set to have to show but I will not keep a supply in stock.

estimate on cost?

I like Becker and ESEE but i don't know. The red handles hurt my eyes but they look to be a good size in Ethan's hand.

In my kitchen all I have is a Henckel Chef knife and a few forschner boning knifes left over from my days as a meat cutter. So I may pick up a set if the price is right.

note: There are actually more knives in my kitchen but they get abused by the rest of my non-knife loving family and I refuse to use them.

I think I would try them out. ESEE warranty backing them up is a plus in my book. Although I would like to know what stainless steel they will be made from.

I agree with this 100%.


I worked in food service for close to 16 years and would not consider these for use in a real professional kitchen environment(this is just personal preference as much as anything). Looks like they are geared more towards home chefs to me with the neoprene and plastic handles(for some reason the handles really bother me).

I do like the ESEE warranty but I can honestly say in all of those 16 years I never once saw a knife get broken(that includes the cheap black plastic handle generic all-purpose kitchen knives you will see on every line in the country) so IMO if you are breaking knives in your kitchen and having to do anything other than sharpen them, you are either using them wrong or using the wrong knife for the job.

Agree.
I rather have a good known Chinese steel than a bad unknown German steel.

 

[slimplmbr]

After looking around some more Jeff Randall states they will be made from 1.4116 stainless steel.

 

[tradertator]

I would also like to know what kind of steel is used, and what type of tang they have. I've got a full set of Wusthoff's so I don't see these being a future purchase.

 

[sheriff125]

i have the alton brown shuns currently, but i like becker and esee so if they are priced right i am going to give them a try.

 

[melensdad]

Why buy CHINESE made knives when you can buy quality American made knives from Cutco. They are amazingly sharp, have a fantastic guarantee, free sharpening for life, etc.

^ Great knives.

 

[Que]

I would probably buy a set.

 

[Knife Lady]

Well it looks like I will be adding them to my inventory afterall. Not sure on the price yet.
