Marco Almond KYA30 Black Titanium Knife Set

I cannot speak for the quality of the item just yet but will update my review if need be. The box is much heavier than I thought it would be, and I see that as a good sign of quality. I wanted to open the box and inspect it before I gave it as a gift but everything was wrapped up so nice and tight I did not want to ruin the packaging. I appreciate the care taken to ensure there is no damage to the product. So far, I am pleased with my purchase and I hope all goes well on Christmas morning. I will update if there is a need. Otherwise, all is well.

These knives are great. I have been using them for Many months now and they are still sharp, nothing has lost its new product look, and they are easy to clean. I cook a couple times a week and didn’t want something too expensive or a cheap looking set. Great value for your money, and they are a nice looking set when in the block and while in use.

At first I thought “these aren’t black titanium”. But, after washing them, they do have a black polish to them, which makes water spots more visible. The steak knives are a thin sheet metal but the rest of them are solid. They’re a good deal imo.

These knives are beautiful! They are sharp and work well. Good variety. I love the titanium look and color. The only thing I have found is they must be hand-washed (at least that was a sticker on the outside packaging). Not a huge hassle, but still.... I like these knives and I would purchase them again.

These knives are beautiful and sharp, but at age 65 this is the first set of knives I have ever bought. In the first use they developed spots I cannot get off and a simple abrasive sponge left scratches! There must be something wrong with the steel because in 50+ years as a cook I have NEVER had knives that stained like this with simple hand wash, and stain even with a finger print or when immediately wiped dry. I did not use them in a dishwasher. I hope I can return them.

These knives feel great in the hand and have a solid, classy look to them. Only downside is their ability to hold an edge could be a bit better. But, keep a sharpening stone nearby, and couple swipes later, they're wonderful again!

Awesome quality, sharp and strong knives i recommend to anyone looking for a good set of knives!

New knives should be much sharper and the oval company logo plate was glued on crookedly. Not impressed overall. If those things don't matter much to you than I think you'll be happy with this knife set.
