Hampton Signature™ Argentum Red - 14 Piece Knife Block Set, Forged

I've had these knives for a year now and they are still shiny with the red enamel still looking gorgeous! I read the care instructions. I don't leave them in standing water - I wash by hand and air dry. I have washed them in my dishwasher twice but the still look like they did out of the box! Only thing is the butcher block it came with is a little cheep looking but it does look exactly as on the box. I LOVE THEM!

Great product! Really sharp and useful for any job at the kitchen. Me and my family really recommend.

Excellent knives. Good balance in handle and very sharp.

looks really nice but the handle is kinda sleek has no grip. I peeled potatoes first time today with them and hand was sliding

This would have been perfect if the name plate on the knife block wasn't upside down. Overall very nice block %26 knives

I love how sharp they are. However I bought theses knives before and since that time they have changed the product. The handle before were stronger and had a nice desig. The Change fells like less quality. But ok enough.

The knives dulled quickly even after sharpening, the scissors were terrible and the blades began to get rust pits on the “stainless steel”. The red paint also began to flake off within 6 months. I tried to contact the company three times about issues with the knife set and never received a response. I was very disappointed in this product for the money I paid.

Set the used knife in the sink until to be washed later (empty, without dishes or water) and went back a day later to take it out an wash it by hand (can't be put in dishwasher) and it had rust spots on it. First time I used it. Now I have to use a knife and wash it immediately so they all don't rust.

I didn't think I would be writing this poor of a review when I first purchased these knives, but now hoping I'll save someone else the disappointment and anger. These knives look great but not for long all the red enamel will soon than later start to chip and look like garbage. Who wants red knives if they aren't going to stay like that. And on top of the handles ending up looking terrible my husband dropped the 8inch chef knife that came with the set in our kitchen on tile and it SNAPPED IN HALF YES STEEL KNIFE SNAPPED IN HALF DUE TO A DROP ONTO TILE!!!!!!!! I've contacted Hampton Forge via email because that's the only option they give you and I did get an initial response but now over a month ago it hasn't lead to anything. Terrible product , terrible company, terrible customer service, DONT BUY.

Cannot put in dishwasher, as they rust and if you attempt to remove rust, with one of those green soft scrubber deals, it scratches the "stainless steel". And on one of my steak knifes, apparently, before it was shipped, someone scratched it at the factory and it looks cheap. Too spendy for the deal you get.
