Rachael Ray Knives

Bonniebelle38 · **Rachael Ray Knives**

Does anyone have any Rachael Ray Knives? My Sister got me on of her Pans for Christmas and I LOVE it!! So she said if I wanted for my Birthday(in May) she'll get me a set of RR Knives. This is what set she is thinking about getting me,

Any knife would be an improvement to the bunch dull ones that I have(I think they were mostly all wedding gifts in '98, lol) but I was wondering too, if you do have them are they worth the money? They are pretty pricey IMO.

TIA

I would love to have a set b/c they are really a great product and they will probably last for a really really long time, I just cringe when I see the price tag. Ouch.

I know the price seems a bit much, but good knives cost a lot and will literally last a lifetime. I have 3 knives in my drawer (Wustoff) that cost more each than that set, but I should still have them when I'm 80. That said, those knives are supposed to be nice. One thing I've learned about kitchen stuff, buy the best knives and pots and pans you can afford and you will should never have to buy new ones again. The same goes for furniture as well.

I don't have them But I want them! I'm buying her 10 piece cookware set soon.

I've been eyeing up the Rachel Ray knives, too. I'd heard of Wustoff, but never priced them until today. Shpadoinkle! I'm not sure we cook enough to justify spending that much on knives. My hubbie would love at least one good kitchen knife, though. Maybe next Xmas.

That's why I am on this site-to save money so that I can spend it. I LOVE cooking and can find it easy to spend money on good cooking tools. I have One knife, but not her exact set-it's amazing the difference between a good knife and the cheap ones. The best part is I don't have to replace it, so I guess it will eb cheaper in the long run.

Have you heard of Cutco knives?? I have never heard of the rachel ray ones. We bought some cutco ones about three years ago. They are SOOOO sharp and incredible! VERY expensive, but very worth it. You would never be replacing these....

l want some

LarryB · **Its some great cutlery**

Its about the quality. Simply put, you get what you pay for. Sure you can go buy a knife set for $20, but will they stay sharp? What about the metal used?

FURI knives are some of the best quality around. She also endorses Analon cookware. These are the same pots on her show 30 minute meals. Fine cookware indeed.

I purchased a set for my wife, and she just loves them. They make a great christmas gift!

you have to be sure that the blade goes all the way to the back of the handle.
that's the #1 thing.
also, find out what material they are.
the best of both worlds would be high carbon stainless steel.
high carbon for durability, and stainless steel for rust proof.
i studied culinary arts, and these are the knifes that i have had, they are great!
*but, i would NEVER buy a knife without "trying" it. actually going to the store and having it in your hand.
*you never know, the knife has to feel right and easy to handle.
I have had experiences when i use other people's knifes that is fine for them, but for me, they might be way too long or short or a weird handle.
maybe find them at an actual store, and try them out first.
btw, ceramic knifes are the coolest thing right now, they are the sharpest thing arround, but way expensive!
you may ask for one of those instead!
