To be honest, come back in 12-18 months to report how they are holding up is a better test. Even the worst knives can be ok for the first couple of months (or longer if they only get light use).

I've replaced my key Global knives with a some better japanese ones, will also have to see how they hold up over time but after 6 months of the two key ones its fantastic.

Did discover one problem though the other day when cooking some beef ribs... did the slow cooking section with them in slabs, took them out, thought they didnt look as tender as I'd hope but I'd chop them up and then decide if to move onto phase 2 of glazing and finishing or put them back in for longer. Well got the carver out and it went through like a hot knife in butter - single slicing movement with no pressure and it was out the bottom so glazed them and put them back in to finish... almost inedibly tough, Mrs couldnt even cut it with her knife.

I got a deal on some discontinued Kai knives made from the equally discontinued SG-2 steel rather than the normal VG-10 or VG-Max. With the discount they came in at about the same price as the Globals are.

Ok, I’ll not post again for over one year.

Am guessing the first ones you got were not so great as you have bought another knife set?

Or just like buying knives I guess?

Still rocking my 20  year old Russam knife set (Chef's Knife, boning knife and palette knives) I got when I trained in catering - use a steel to sharpen my knives, had some issues with the electric type sharpeners that I used mostly hammered or totally tired and grinding up the side of my knives, easy done.

Steel is preferred for sharpening
