Our take on the Astercook Knife Set, 15-Piece Kitchen Knives Set with Built-in Sharpener

The Astercook 15-Piece Knife Set is a block set that covers most kitchen cutting jobs: an 8-inch chef knife, 8-inch slicing knife, 7-inch santoku, 8-inch serrated bread knife, 5-inch utility knife, 3.5-inch paring knife and six 4.5-inch serrated steak knives, plus kitchen shears and a hardwood block with a built-in sharpener. Blades are high-carbon German stainless steel with a black oxidation-resistant coating and a 15-degree edge, and the PP handles are partial tang. It is dishwasher safe, which is unusual for a block set at this level. No current price was supplied, so check the live comparison before buying.

Questions and answers

Is this set worth it?
It suits a first kitchen or a household that wants one purchase to cover every cutting job and does not want to hand wash knives. If you chop daily and want forged, full-tang blades, spend more on a smaller set.
How does it compare with a forged full-tang set?
These are partial-tang blades with PP handles, so they are lighter and less rigid than forged full-tang knives. The trade-off is a lower price and dishwasher-safe care.
Can the knives go in the dishwasher?
Yes, the set is dishwasher safe. Hot water and detergent still dull edges and wear coatings faster than hand washing, so rinse and dry by hand if you want them to last.
How does the built-in sharpener work?
Pull each straight-edge blade through the sharpener slots in the block a few times. Do not use it on the serrated bread knife or steak knives.
What is in the box?
Six knives (8-inch chef, 8-inch slicing, 7-inch santoku, 8-inch bread, 5-inch utility, 3.5-inch paring), six 4.5-inch serrated steak knives, kitchen shears and the hardwood block with sharpener.
When is it cheapest?
Block sets like this usually drop during back-to-school, Black Friday and January white-sale periods. Set a price alert and compare across stores before buying.
