Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've bought several knives over the years, but never have I had to sharpen them before using them. First knife I tried was the Santoku knife. It was too dull to slice a tomato. Next i tried with the Paring knife, it too was too dull to do the job. I understand this is a budget line by the manufacturer and they compromised in the steel and the handles, but a knife manufacturer should never compromise on its edge. Bottom line, I didn't buy a set of top name knives to spend the next day or two going through sharpening them all. They're going back!
