Is this set good for a first kitchen?

Yes. It covers the knives most recipes call for plus steak knives, and the block keeps them together. Expect lighter steel than forged premium knives.

Can the knives go in the dishwasher?

Hand washing is the safer choice. Heat and detergent can dull edges and wear the nonstick coating, and most makers of coated blades advise against it.

How does the built-in sharpener work?

You draw each blade through the slots in the block. It restores a usable edge quickly but is coarser than a whetstone or a guided sharpener.

What knives are in the 14 pieces?

A typical layout is chef's, bread, slicing, santoku, utility and paring knives, six steak knives, kitchen shears and the block with sharpener. Check the listing for the exact lineup.

It works well as a housewarming or wedding gift because it is complete and looks presentable in the block. Skip it for someone who already owns quality knives.

About the Astercook 14-Piece Kitchen Knife Set with Sharpener Block

The Astercook 14-Piece Kitchen Knife Set bundles the core knives a home cook uses — chef's, bread, slicing, santoku, utility, paring and six steak knives — in a wooden block with a built-in sharpener. Blades are stainless steel with a nonstick coating that helps food release and wipes clean, and the block keeps everything in one place on the counter. It is a starter or gift set aimed at people outfitting a first kitchen rather than cooks who want forged, high-carbon blades. Against single-brand sets from bigger names it offers more pieces and a sharpener for less, but the steel and handles are lighter-duty and will not hold an edge like premium knives.
