TIVOLI Butcher Knife Set for Meat Cutting, 13Pcs Upgraded High Carbon Steel Hand Forged Kitchen Knife Set with Roll Bag, Viking Chef Knife Set for Kitchen Outdoor BBQ

Update a short time later 11Feb'26: Indeed the handle was likely a tad dry from storage - it's tight now. It takes an edge refreshing well - I like and kind of "demand", how to say that ... a "sharp" knife. This metal is a great chemistry in my experience with all kinds of metallurgy. I've gotten used to the wider blade thickness at the top for a kitchen knife with it's notches - I'm upping it from 3-stars to 5 and also because of the price point. One could easily get a sheath and use it as a on the belt utility knife, etc. if even a tad short for that, it's a nice knife. I looks like it will hold up as is well from what I've seen and may anticipate from this. =========================================== Initial review: It's a great knife and appears as described. Keep in mind that it is as it says (didn't measure) 4mm thick - looks it. Anyway, so when cutting through something, will push apart and split unlike a thinner blade as many are. It's not a negative in any way, just keep that in mind if never had one this thick. It arrives well sharpened, as I hoped - not disappointed. I've not gone to sharpen it yet - I presume will perform as described, that metal composition. One other thing to keep in mind are the Handles. There's the slightest giggle but it's there. I presume it's been kept dry so when usual humidity and washing has it's affect - would tighten up. If not, well, I can live with it or tap the rivets. It would have been nice if threaded versus I presume compression fit so could be tightened. I believe it said the wood was walnut - not the variety I've worked with but seems hard, dense anyway. As small a piece these are I was surprise there was any blemish or "knot" - but there is one so a low spot they tried to sand flat. And, knots tend to "move". Again, if did a replace - what would I then get? So, it may well be hand finished, made. Anyway, I am just trying to be accurate in what I got. It's a great knife regardless. As long as the handles don't split, etc. Then it's a project knife and was not looking for that. Then, if repurchased and got this would do a replace. Anyway, I hope that helps someone make a decision.

Knives look good and cut great. Will caution you to use with care. My husband has cut himself twice. Knives are very sharp.

This is very nice. It looks and feels great but is is VERY small with no sheath. Calling it a Butcher Knife is misleading. Call it what it is. It’s a well built for finishing and detail work - not butchering.

Awesome Christmas gift for dad. He was very excited opening it and loved the leather it came in. High quality and knifes are heavy. Very good blade protection in the leather and rolls up very well without taking too much space. He's used it for multiple cuts of meat and is extremely satisfied with the sharpness of the blades. Without knowing the price, people think this blade set is much more expensive than it is. Overall impressed and recommend purchasing.

Bought this set for my adult son for Christmas. He loved the storage bag. They are a bit heavy to hold but the handle is comfortable and they seem rust resistant so far.

Great knife, really sharp, sliced up a partially frozen 14 lbs brisket!

Nice set of knives, was not very sharp out of the box but with some minor sharpening with a home sharpener they kept a good edge. Small but very handy. Fits well in an outdoors camp cook bag. Well constructed.

These are excellent for the price. Study and very sharp. Nice handle and good grip while carving.
