Graze by Cambridge Mathison Black Sand & Mirror Stainless Steel 20-piece Flatware Set (Service for 4)

I was thrilled to receive the opportunity to try The GRAZE 20PC MATHISON BLACK. I chose a beautiful modern design that will go with most dinnerware sets. The GRAZE 20PC MATHISON BLACK stainless steel flatware service for 4. It comes with 4 salad forks, 4 dinner forks, 4 dinner knives, 4 dinner spoons, 4 teaspoons. It does say it is Dishwasher Safe. I washed them before use with a normal dish sponge and had no problems with the black glaze becoming scratch. It's been a long time since I got a new flatware set and I am so happy with GRAZE 20PC MATHISON STAINLESS STEEL FLATWARE. I am recommending this full flatware sets to everyone who is looking to refresh their kitchen dining table sets.

I'm 52 yo and I've been using the same utensils since I was a child. I did buy a set 15 years ago but hated them and never used them. The problem is the inability to hold them prior to purchasing. For me, weight and balance is the key to any hand tool. I was immediately drawn to this set by the color. The combo of matte and shiny black looks so elegant. I took a chance and decided to give them a try. I'm thrilled to report that I adjusted to these in no time. My small hands prefer the small spoon and fork and the weight and balance is perfect for me....not to light or heavy. The length of each: Large fork - 8 1/8; Small fork 7 1/8; Large spoon -8"; Small spoon 6 7/8, Butter knife 9 1/4 ( the knife is slightly serated) If you don't like chunky/heavy utensils then this set is for you

would definitely recommend these beautiful silverware set for anyone looking for a fancy look at a reasonable price! the black color is Definitely new and different to me! actually they match my kitchen setup perfectly! i am happy and will definitely have to my friends and family a set for sure

Sometimes you just get bored with the same ol' same ol' so we purchased this set for special occasions like, say, Halloween. Or low light dinners on the patio. Just something different to have on the table a few times a year. And that is just us. No reason you could not use this set everyday. The set is made by Cambridge so quality should not be an issue. Our set prior to the current one was made by Cambridge and it lasted for years. We love the look. Black, but not completely black, like some we viewed. You can see in the pic the color difference between this and our set of Mikasa. I believe this, like the Mikasa, is 18 guage SS which is a good weight to keep from bending. We did not open the box yet because we just moved and are still in the process of purchasing new items, and deciding where to store everything. But I thought the color was so cool I would review and show the comparison anyway.

So I didn’t know that black silverware was a thing! I am so in love with this set! They arrived displayed so nicely in the package. When I opened the package to wash then they were attached really well so they wouldn’t shuffle around during shipping. The set is heavy duty but not overly bulky. I have smaller hands and they fit really nicely in hand and aren’t bulky to use. They wash nicely and to use them makes me feel fancy! My family just loves them too! My sister is looking to get a black set too!!!

This black silverware will add a new look to your table. It is great for everyday use but adds an upscale elegant look to a fancier place setting. This silverware is dishwasher safe so no extra care is needed. You can use this for your everyday silverware or add a special touch for fancier dinners.

This review is for the GRAZE MATHISON BLACK 20-piece flatware set, 18/0 stainless steel. This set is really pretty! We needed to replace our 10 year old flatware set and these are perfect. The black is beautiful and the look of them is classy. I have always had silver flatware, so the black is a nice change. They are not too thick or too thin and are very comfortable to hold. You get spoons, knives and forks. I love stainless steel because they do not rust fast and some do not rust at all but I have had stainless steel things rust so only time will tell how well these hold up to that. We have used these for a few days now and so far there have not been any scratches and they hold up well in the dishwasher. We just make sure that we dry them right away when the cycle ends to prevent any potential rusting since that is the best way to prevent it. I recommend this set of flatware and I would definitely purchase these again in the future when we need to replace this set as long as they continue to hold up well.

This was the first “grown up” set of flatware that I purchased so I wasn't even really sure what I was looking for when I started the search. Previously I bought a simple less expensive set when I got my first place and over the years I bought another set and somehow had a bunch of mismatched silverware in my drawer. Some of them started to develop little rust spots so I decided it was time to upgrade. I love black and dark grey in general so when I saw these with the black finish and combination of gloss and matte finishes, I was so happy. I knew I wanted something simple and modern without a bunch of crazy designs. My dinnerware set is matte black with gloss black designs so they match perfectly. The weight of the flatware is perfect, not super heavy and bulky but not light and dainty either. These quality is great, especially for the price. I highly recommend reading the instructions that come with the set to make sure you properly maintain them. I purchased two sets about a month and a half ago and have washed them in the dishwasher every time without any issues. Per the instructions, it's best to dry them immediately to avoid water marks if you let them air dry. The drying process in most dishwashers isn't enough to completely dry everything and you may end up with water spots around the end of the handle if you don't finish drying them right away. I also make sure everything is completely rinsed off of them right after using them, which is also recommended in the instructions. I used to let my old silverware soak in a bowl or whatever if there was stubborn stuff stuck on them but I no longer do that. I know most people probably wouldn't take the time to read the instructions with flatware since you'd think it's pretty self explanatory, but there are some helpful tips to ensure they look their best long term. I absolutely love this flatware set and couldn't be happier with my choice. I would buy them again and recommend them to others looking for a set with a simple design and unique finish. I did notice a tiny imperfection at the end/corner of one of the handles on one of the pieces that was sharp but it was only one piece so I'm considering it a one-off situation and not the norm. I had already taken them all out, threw away the packaging and washed them before I noticed so I figured there's not much I could do at that point. It's the upper left corner in the close up pictures. Hard to see and even harder to get a picture but you can definitely feel it. Without that imperfection I would easily rate these 5 stars.

I really love the way this set looks, well at least from a distance and before using them. Out of the box the majority of my forks have slight defects/dings on the tine area from the manufacturing process. Not huge but they are there. Not worthy of a return but I wouldn't buy these as a gift for newlyweds or anything. The are light weight and easy to hold and preferred by friends and family over my current set because my old ones have 3 tined forks. They do show fingerprints easily and REALLY show grease marks that were very obvious when we used them after picking up and eating that corn on the cob in my photo. I hand wash everything so no feedback regarding dishwasher use, sorry. Washed easily and no finish damage after soaking in hot soapy water.

I like how these look - a glossy functional piece with a matte black handle. Very attractive, and gives different vibes (modern vs rustic) depending on the rest of the decor. They're made by Cambridge, which is a well known company, but "Graze" is the brand of these particular ones. Not entirely sure what's up with that - does Cambridge not want to put their name directly on these? (Hint: maybe they don't!) For me...while these function and look great, they're my least favorite utensils. They're Made in China, and the biggest issue I have with them is their size - the large fork and spoon are simply too big. On top of that, the matte finish black handle...it's difficult for me to tell, but it doesn't have the same feel (of metal) as the rest of the spoon. Not sure if it's some inlaid piece of lesser material, or it just isn't shined up. All in all, while I like how these look, I'm not very fond of them.
