FLYINGCOLORS Laguiole Steak Knife Set. Stainless Steel, Olive Wood Handle, Gift Box, 6 Pieces

You can buy a similar version of this set, for $600. For $45, you can't go wrong. They're sharp, non-serrated, good looking and well made. The laguiole design gives a setting a "rustic but upscale" look. The knife itself is well balanced, the blade thin, but sturdy. The edge curves ever so slightly, with shallow ridges carved on the spine. The Wengewood handles feel good in the hand. With other $555 you can go and buy some Wagyu steaks. Maybe a nice red to go with it...

Got these to replace serrated steak knives I bought on Amazon a couple of years ago. Those would literally just shred the meat and were so frustrating and awful. So despite serrated being the go-to for steak knives, I chose these. They are SO good. Slice through a cut of meat like butter. Small ergonomic handle and well made. Highly recommend

I like them a lot. I like that the handles are natural wood and like real wood not coincident. I'm a knife guy. I collect cutlery and (knives, swords, hunting knives, did some blacksmithing made a few bowie knives and daggers as well as other things out of iron and steel.) Lets see, some one mentioned that the blades are thick from flat to flat. That is a good thing. Let me explain this. As time goes by the knives go dull from use and need sharpening. Each time you sharpen a knife the process removes some metal. Being made of stainless steel is a good thing for most people. Stainless tends to be a little harder and more brittle. Which means that it takes a little longer to sharpen but holds an edge longer and being stainless will not discolor with age. Personally I prefer carbon steel but that is like that difference between and automatic and manual transmission. I also prefer manuals. Yes they are not that sharp when delivered, They have what used to be called a factory edge. Meaning the angle is not as acute so that the blade does not get damaged during shipping. Took me all of about 30 minutes or so with some few different grades of wet stones to put a shaving sharp edge on the entire set. From this point going forward all that will be needed to maintain them is a few passes on a stone every once in a while and rubbing in some toung oil into the handles and this set will last a hundred years easy. Personally I think the price is low for what they are. I really don't care about the box. The only negative I can think of is I am not a fan of mirror finishes on knife blades. I by far prefer a satin finish. Satin finishes don't show the marks left by sharpening stones. On the hand over time mirror finishes turn into satin anyway so no big deal. A knife is a tool and needs to be maintained. A knife that shows signs of being sharpened is owned by some one that cares for and maintain their tools.

A truly authentic set of these from France would be hundreds of dollars. But these are quite nice for the price, and actually have the non-serrated edge of the authentic ones. The factory edge is not super sharp, but that's to be expected, and you'll need to sharpen and hone them regularly anyway. But don't get wood, fine edge knives unless you're prepared to hand wash, store properly, regularly sharpen the blades, and oil the wooden handles. You'd have to do this even if you paid $150 per knife. Wood has to be maintained properly, and steak knife blades ALWAYS dull quickly from being used on ceramic plates, no matter how expensive they are. If you're prepared to take care of them, they should last a long time and look even better with age. Just don't even think of putting them in the dishwasher!

Nice workmanship. They will b easy to sharpen when needed

Very nice looking but not anywhere near the quality of steel I was expecting. Have to resharpen or rehone after each use. Not exaggerating.

I really love the overall design of these knives, they are beautiful, well made and will slice through a 1" porterhouse as if it were butter. The knife feels good in the hand, even has offset ridges at the base of the spine to place a finger upon. The handles are made of dark brown Wenge wood; the pins are not flush, but for $40 that is to be expected. This "Laguiole" style knife sells for many hundreds of dollars by other makers; I'm pretty happy with mine.

We are very pleased with these steak knives. They are well-made, solid and a perfect weight (not lightweight like many), and a perfect size. The quality of construction is obvious; beautiful smooth wood, perfectly fitted joints and rivets, a blade that is sharp and well-finished. The storage box is an added plus. We purchased very expensive traditional Laguiole knives from A. Simon in Paris years ago, and these look just as nice. It's obvious that this company is putting a lot of effort into creating a product to be proud of. I would highly recommend Flyingcolor's Laguiole steak knives.

Can't believe the quality VS price on this knife set. I purchased 6 Laguiole from France last year and these come very very close but are a fraction of the price. This set is for a gift and I opened it first to check things out. Glad I did, the knives are all individually packaged in little plastic bags, this does not make for a beautiful presentation, once removed I found that the finish on the wood handles needed to be revived. I rubbed them down with a special mineral oil/ beeswax polish and they popped to life. Once done, this will make a very nice gift. Blades are sharp overall quality of the knife looks to be top notch. I'm very very pleased and will keep FlyingColors in mind for a future gift set.
