these knives are about 15 years old
cant remember what we paid for them (not cheap)
very handy cos they are always right in front of you on the bench in the knife block
they have a pair of very excellent scissors which easily come apart for cleaning
they retain their sharpness very well
comes with a steel for sharpening , which I have used about 2 or 3 times in 15 years
quality is definitely worth the extra cost
Mrs BCB has some pots she got for her 21st (35 years ago)
"Essteele" brand, stainless with copper bases
they are still in fantastic nick, and they get used every day
