This is an early review so it is based off a limited time of use but, here is the first take. I am very happy with the carving set I bought. I deliberated for a couple days over going with a traditional looking set or this more modern style knife. I usually will go with the old tried and true version of things but a couple of things swayed me. As a Manufacturing Engineer for a prominent hand tool company I decided to not be "averse to change" and this knife has a powder coat to keep it from staining or corrosion. So far I am glad I took the road less traveled.
The knife cuts very well, it is extremely balanced, and the handle (although unusual looking) actually fits in your grip amazingly. The handle was the part I was not sure I would like and I was wrong. They did their ergonomic homework and it shows.
The fork is a beast. I love this thing. Your turkey is not going to move, tilt, or roll when you use this to pin it down. It is also pretty heavy and very thick. It is not going to bend removing turkey or roast from a pan. It is a nice piece of equipment.
So far I am very happy with this modern replacement for my Grandmother's carving set I have been using for 30 years. It is very nice equipment.

How To Hold A Honing Rod
A Minute To Learn, A Lifetime To Master
Learning to safely handle your knife increases precision & efficiency in the kitchen. A hammer grip is the simplest & most natural way to hold a knife. Wrap all 5 fingers around the handle, making no contact with the blade. For more dexterity & control, consider the "pinch grip". Wrap your middle, pinky & index finger around the handle. Put your bent index finger on one side of the blade, just ahead of the bolster, with your thumb on the other side "pinching" the blade between your two fingers.
-
Easy to Care For
Less maintenance so you can spend more time cooking. The Shadow Black Series washes up quick with soap and water. Let air dry, or gently wipe off excess water before storing safety in the included PerfectFit sheath. Ideal for protecting your blade both at home and on the go.
