Customer Review: A Beautiful Carving Set!
Summary: 5 Stars
I too purchased this carving set as a Christmas gift and received the aluminum box instead of the advertised mahogany-stained box. I contacted Amazon about the mix-up and they immediately sent me a replacement, which also included the aluminum box. But I am not really that disappointed, the mahogany-stained box would have been cool, but the aluminum box is still very nice and holds the carving set securely. The important item, the carving set itself, is just beautiful! I am not a connoisseur of fine kitchen utensils, so I did some research before purchasing. Wusthof has been making quality cutlery for years and almost every review I have seen gives their items the highest of marks. I am especially impressed with the craftsmanship of the Classic series. The blade and tang are one continuous piece of forged steel, so it feels very solid and balanced. The grip is comfortable and the knife cuts extremely well. The price may seem a little high for something that you might only use on holidays or special occasions, but this is a set that will last forever and can be passed on through the generations. You get what you pay for. If I carved more turkeys, I wouldn't hesitate to buy a set for myself!
Description of Wusthof Classic Limited Edition 2-Piece Carving Set in Heirloom Box
Packed in a beautiful velvet-lined wooden presentation box with a mahogany stain, this exquisite carving set makes an elegant presentation and a generous wedding or holiday gift for a discriminating chef. The sturdy and heavy 6-inch carving fork holds a hefty rib-eye steak or roasted turkey breast with ease and the superior 8-inch blade delivers either thick and juicy or paper-thin slices with ease.Part of Wüsthof?s popular Classic line of cutlery, this knife and fork have a very traditional design. The knife?s blade is hand-forged from high-carbon stain-resistant steel so it retains its sharp edges longer and is easier to resharpen. The blade is also ground and polished by computer to ensure perfect tapering from tip to bolster. A signature feature of Wüsthof knives, the weighted bolster gives this knife the perfect heft. For balance, full tangs extend through the synthetic handles on both the knife and carving fork and are triple-riveted for strength. --Cristina Vaamonde
