One of television's favorite chefs, Emeril, endorses a line of cutlery bearing his name from German cutlery great, Wüsthof . Adapted from Wüsthof's Gourmet series, each Emerilware knife is laser cut from a single piece of steel, rather than precision forged, which makes them more affordable than some of Wüsthof's other lines. That's not to say they aren't sharp. The high-carbon, no-stain blades feature a hand-honed edge that resharpens with ease. With their synthetic, nonslip molded handles, Emerilware knives offer a contemporary appearance and lighter weight that many home chefs prefer. Made in Solingen, Germany, home of Wüsthof since 1814, this 22-piece set meets just about every chopping, slicing, and mincing need. Included are a 22-slot wooden storage block and the following 21 utensils and knives: 3-inch clip-point paring; 3-inch straight paring; bird's beak peeler; 4-1/2-inch utility; 5-inch serrated utility; 4-1/2-inch multi-prep cook's; 6-inch cook's; 8-inch cook's; 8-inch bread; 8-inch carving; 7-inch santoku; 8 4-1/2-inch steak knives; kitchen shears; and a 9-inch sharpening steel. While the knives and other utensils are dishwasher-safe, washing by hand is recommended. The set is covered by a lifetime warranty. --Ann Bieri What's in the Box Wooden 22-slot storage block; 3-inch clip-point paring; 3-inch straight paring; bird's beak peeler; 4-1/2-inch utility; 5-inch serrated utility; 4-1/2-inch multi-prep cook's; 6-inch cook's; 8-inch cook's; 8-inch bread; 8-inch carving; 7-inch santoku; 8 4-1/2-inch steak knives; kitchen shears; 9-inch sharpening steel. 22 items total.
