Ronco Rocker Showtime Stainless Steel Stamped 20-Piece Knife Set

The knives are very good......iff you never wash them in the dishwasher. They are not 100% stainless , which means the detergent of the dishwasher, not to mention the heat, will cause them to get splotchy, and like my first set and rust.

Hand wash them in the sink, and let air dry.....they work beautifully, then.

I have given 2 other sets since I bought mine, and told each of the recipients about foregoing the dishwasher. Their sets like my 2nd are over 3 yrs old now, and still good.

The ferrous iron in them causes the rusting, but it also causes tham to keep a very sharp edge. Non-ferrous stainless steel has no rustable metal, but can't maintain a sharp edge without a lot of work.

The wood block alone is worth the $26. I will be buying another set for a gift again, this year.........my sets were originally around $100 with block and shipping....

From all I had heard about this knife set I was convinced it was a good value, inexpensive yet usable...

Even after a PROFESSIONAL sharpening of all 20 implements the usability of this lackluster set has disappointed me greatly.

I just purchased this set of knives recently and I dont know about others that have ordered them but they were extremely sharp. I priced other knife sets made by Ronco on the Ronco website and the price on these was a steal. The other sets were the same price and you had to buy the knife block separately and it was another $29.95 plus shipping. I paid $40.00 for this twenty piece set and got the knife block as well. Also the Rocker knife is hard to come by most of the time..usually sold out on the website and it was in this set....all and all I think it was a great bargain/

We have tried many MANY many knives, and these are by far our favs!

Exceptional value and quality. Very pleased.

This is a great set. Both my wife and I love it. The knives are good quality and very sharp. Great value for the price!

For the price I thought these would be flimsy but I was pleasantly surprised at the quality. I've run them through the dishwasher, wash them by hand and they're holding up so far. I only wish there were 2 utility knives and 1 paring knife instead of the other way around. I've used the utility knife and scissor extensively (multi purpose - bottle opener and nut cracker capabilities), but am still yet to used the others. It's just so much!

It was rediculous how long it took to get to the store but the product itself was great.

This was a wonderful value, much bigger than I anticipated. The knives right out of the box were sharper than any I'd ever purchased. Cut chicken so quick and easy, I can't imagin going back to my old knives.
