The time for delivery was very long but understandable as they were coming from outside the EU and I assume COVID had played its part. The knives themselves look and feel excellent and are as sharp as... See more

Very sharp - in looks and use

The knives are very sharp and the sharpening rod is as described. All should offer long life and durability. The knives are etched to suggest folding of the steel, which is an inaccurate depiction of their claimed heritage. Delivery was a little slow but acceptable, given current circumstances but overall vfm against competition is very good. The tools are well made and very good looking. They also heft well in the hand.

Excellent knives

Excellent knives- delivery was a bit slow and they don’t stay as sharp as one might like... but generally very good - I bought a wooden storage block off Amazon, but anything would do

Ordered 30th November not Arrived

Ordered 30th November, still not arrived. Many emails since Christmas back and forth, claiming they are coming, they are coming. They even provided two tracking numbers, however tracking shows they never make it to Royal Mail for local delivery. Now they are not responding to emails. Research on Reddit seems to highlight that it's a scam... either don't arrive or if they do arrive, they are cheap Chinese knives... I'd avoid if I were you.
