About the Gibson Home 12-pc. Knife Block Set

The Gibson Home 12-piece knife block set is a budget kitchen starter kit: stainless steel blades, color-matched handles and a wooden block that holds the whole set. It covers the basics — chef's knife, bread knife, slicer, utility knives, paring knives, shears and a sharpener — so a new kitchen can be equipped in one purchase. Compared with forged German or Japanese knives, the blades are thinner and lighter, and edge retention is modest. It suits first apartments, dorm kitchens and shoppers who want a complete matching set rather than a few good knives.

  • Not built for heavy chopping or bone work
  • What reviewers say

    Owners treat this as a starter set: fine for light cooking and a tidy counter, but not a long-term knife collection. Most praise the completeness and the block; complaints center on edge retention and flimsy feel.

    • CompletenessPraisedBuyers like getting every basic knife, shears and a sharpener in one matching set.

    • StoragePraisedThe block keeps the knives organized and off the counter.

    Questions and answers

    Is this set good for a first kitchen?
    Yes. It covers every basic knife plus shears and a sharpener, so a new kitchen is equipped in one purchase. Expect light-duty performance rather than professional edges.
    Are the knives dishwasher safe?
    No. Hand wash and dry them promptly. Dishwasher heat and detergent dull edges and can damage the handles.
    How does it compare with forged knife sets?
    Forged sets from Wüsthof, Zwilling or Victorinox hold an edge longer and feel heavier. This set is lighter and thinner, which suits light prep and small budgets.
    What is included in the 12 pieces?
    A chef's knife, bread knife, slicer, utility knife, several paring knives, kitchen shears, a sharpener and the wooden block. Exact contents are printed on the box.
    Do the knives need sharpening often?
    Yes, with regular use. Hone them between sharpenings, and use the included sharpener or a rod sharpener every few weeks.
