Sophia ★★★★★

I've been cutting through everything from butternut squash to ripe tomatoes, and that DLC coating really does glide through without any drag. The starter set gives you the two knives I reach for most often.

Owen ★★★★★

The DLC coating on this starter set makes cutting even the most stubborn ingredients feel completely effortless. I was surprised how easily it sliced through hard cheese and ripe tomatoes with the same smooth motion.

Penelope ★★★★★

Slicing through a butternut squash used to feel like a workout, but this thing cut it like it was soft butter. The diamond-like carbon coating really does make a difference — food barely clings to the blade. I've been reaching for it over my old knives every single night.
