The set is a tempting mix of good values and troublesome ideas.

The Basics 25-piece Wood Block Set, made in China to Chicago Cutlery's specifications, includes much more than just a wide range of knives. The 25-piece count provides new owners with: a pair of kitchen shears; six Teflon ladles, spatulas and pasta tools; a medium-sized knife block with slots for all the set's knives plus the shears; and a polymer cutting board.

This knife set was designed for chefs who prefer not to sharpen their own knives. Every blade is serrated, even when that's not appropriate to their use. If you want an accurate paring knife, choose a plain edge. That counts for many types of slicing as well -- good serrated blades cut but leave a more ragged surface than good plain edge blades. Chicago Cutlery's website recommends sharpening the plain edge versions of these knives after every two uses. The best cutting edge on these serrated knives fades more slowly, but it still fades. Without special equipment, you'll not be able to sharpen these blades at home.

The Basics Block Set includes six steak knives which won't see service during prep, and a three-inch, four-inch and five-inch selection of paring and utility knives. Eight-inch carving, bread, and chef's knives plus a six-inch boning knife are also included, along with three specialty tools: tomato and cheese knives and a matching fork.

Actually it won't match the usual offerings from Sabatier, the company which contracted the Chinese production of this full-scale kitchen tool assortment.

Handles of measuring cups and spoons are held on with fragile spot welds, something that never works out well for me. Stainless steel is only a benefit for this large an assortment of daily use items if it's a dishwasher safe steel. This set isn't -- you'll be washing everything here by hand. Plastic utensils work well enough, though any Teflon spatulas are not long lasting and could shed bits of nonstick plastic in the food.

The knife assortment forms the heart of this set, and whether you need this many inexpensive knives should be a question you ask yourself before purchase. Starting out with a few cheap bargains can make sense, but they usually soon get replaced with better things. With care the knives should last, but the edges will need regular sharpening. The original bevel is an interesting choice somewhere between almost correct for heavy chopping and not quite right for efficient slicing. Perfectionists would need to do some more work on the blades before use.

Bargains are nearly always a gamble. If you don't overstress your tools and are willing to pick up a few unfinished tasks yourself -- taking a sharp edge off a measuring cup or tightening up a knife handle rivet here and there -- you may appreciate the full range of useful tools this set provides. If you push things to the limit, consider fewer knives but better quality. Three good knives would outdo the full range offered here.

Coated with black Teflon to prevent glare and increase corrosion resistance, the dagger is a no-nonsense concept for the military market. The full-length tang and simple stainless steel blade guard match the efficient look of the textured Zytel handle slabs. Nearly a pound heavy, this full-sized fighting knife follows the Fairbairn-Applegate pattern developed for the Office of Strategic Services in WWII. The balanced build works for piercing and slashing, but falls a bit short for the chopping tasks a bush knife faces.

For added security, the dagger's Cordura sheath includes a velcro strap to keep the blade in place, locking down across the blade guard instead of wrapping around the handle. The sheath itself ties down -- always a good idea if running is part of your work. Gear that bounces tends to get lost or make noise.

Though manufactured in Spain, Puma IP knives meet the standards of the Solingen, Germany, facilities. Using modern methods to keep quality high and reduce costs, the IP line brings Puma designs to a wider portion of the marketplace. Fewer of Puma's hand processes went into the manufacture of this blade, but there appears to be no drop in practical quality. There's nothing here but the essentials, the way Applegate would have wanted it. Corrosion resistance and the secure features of the sheath make this a good choice for sailors and adventurous fishermen.

Beginning with Bali-song knives in 1990, Benchmade expanded into the tactical knife realm with a high tech and high detail approach. Current facilities base production on machines capable of 0.0005-inch tolerances.

Matching Heckler and Koch firearms to a knife is no small feat, but the Snody Tanto holds true to the same look and quality as the popular H&K weapons. Opening smoothly with thumb studs set for either right or left hand use, the Snody Tanto blade snaps securely in place with the extremely reliable Axis blade lock patented by Benchmade. Though it looks almost fanciful, the Snody knife conforms to the original armor-penetrating intent that made the tanto the backup knife of the samurai.

An excellent choice for Search & Rescue personnel, the Tanto's serrated section cuts harnesses and belts with ease. The black Teflon coating and smooth, quiet action also fit this blade to more discreet operations. A stainless steel pocket clip mounts to either side for easy right or left-handed access. G-10 composite handle slabs match the machined look and functionality of H&K's pistol grips. The H&K Snody Tanto's folded length is only 4.5 inches, but the knife packs a versatile 3.5-inch combo-edged blade of 154CM high carbon stainless steel and hits the scale at a slim .40 pounds.

In blocks or wheels you get higher quality at lower cost. The problem with this is creating those neat sandwich sized slices yourself. If you buy a wheel, even dividing it into blocks can be too much for the ordinary chef's knife. If you're buying large to cut costs, you can lose that savings with slices that are ragged and three or four times the volume you intended to use.

Next Day Gourmet's two handled teflon coated cheese knife helps home chefs deal with this restaurant level chore. Double durable plastic riveted handles at either side of this 14" blade allow two handed control and maximum cutting pressure. No more dangerous stabbing and prying when you have this tool in your hands.

The dark teflon coating lets the blade slip through with ease, and residue wipes easily off the slick surface. You'll definitely need a cutting block or board under this knife, to protect your counter or table top. Divide wheels or blocks into sections for grating or slicing, or shave slices as you go. Gap free full tang construction makes the Teflon Cheese Knife safe and strong.

(Keep It Simple Stupid) knife series, offers a smaller and more utilitarian version of his simplified engineering in the P.E.C.K (Precision Engineered Compact Knife). The PECK knife, less than one ounce light and only 2.625 inches in closed length, unfolds a 1.75" beak styled razor sharp blade suitable for demanding everyday uses. The black epoxy coated "PECK in the Dark" version even has the look of the tactical knives that Columbia River markets.

Halligan's unique approach eliminates most of the parts that cause trouble, like handle slabs that may separate and spring steel spines that may bind. The one sided grind of the blade allows the knife to close against the handle without gaps, safe and secure without all the fuss. It's easier to understand when you see it.

With Halligan's approach you lose weight but not function. The PECK opens with one hand, and locks in place when extended; you get the standard pocket clip, which in this small pocket version also doubles as a practical money clip. Without the bulk of a conventional handle there may be some issues with blisters if you do a lot of work with this knife, but for occasional use there should be no complaints.

Most knives today are double-ground, with metal honed away from both sides of the blade to form the edge. Halligan's style is the one preferred by Native Americans from the frontier days and before, and also was seen in the specialized axes and other cutting tools of European craftsmen. It increases cutting efficiency and accuracy, but unless he makes a mirror image for the lefties among us it's strictly for the righthanded.

Light weight (5.6 ounces) and a folded length of only 5 1/3" make this full sized tanto inconspicuous and easy to carry. Much more than this and you'll need a belt sheath.

Spring assisted one handed opening works with either hand, and the patented Ultra Lock blade lock has a "never fail" feel. The strong clip can be attached to either side of the Zytel steel reinforced handle, for efficient deployment with either right or left hand.

The grip is shaped well enough to be secure and safe, although if you want this knife to double as a utility blade the textured Zytel may be a blister maker compared to traditional materials. Designed for concealment and penetration, the combo edged tanto blade may not be the best choice if you want an all around camp knife or folding skinner, but Cold Steel makes the Recon 1 in enough blade styles that anyone should find one that fits their needs.

Using the best modern materials and state of the art manufacturing methods, Cold Steel knives are at the top level of the urban defense market. People who buy them are not disappointed.

Made from AUS-8A stainless steel and hollow ground, the Lawman's blade is super sharp and capable of handling all varieties of tough cutting tasks. A non-reflective Teflon coating helps further protect the blade from rust and stains. Twin thumb studs provide ambidextrous one-handed opening, allowing a quick and easy access to the blade.

The handle, with carefully implemented finger grooves, is comfortable and effective in forward, reverse, or choked-up grip for fine edge and point control. Heat-treated steel liners, overlaid with textured G-10 scales, provides a lightweight and strong handle with fantastic traction in the most extreme of conditions of wet or cold. Dual pocket clips make for easy carrying.

With Cold Steel's new Tri-Ad locking mechanism, the blade can take a tremendous impact, whether on the edge, point, or back of the blade. After rigorous and intensive testing from Cold Steel, the lock with triple backup system is guaranteed to work without fail, protecting your fingers and hand from an accidental closing.

With an overall length of 8 1/8-inches, and an overall weight of 5.4 ounces, this is a heavy duty knife. The Lawman was designed tough, and Cold Steel understood that, in the world of law enforcement, this knife could potentially mean the difference between life and death on any given day.

At only 3.22" long, the 440C Teflon coated stainless steel, combo edge, tanto point blade is not big and scary. Rather, it has a sleek and stealthy design, and a great quality. Perfect for its intended use as an concealed weapon. Let's be frank -- this knife is not a hunting knife, it is not a utility knife, it is not a gentleman's knife. It was designed and intended to for use as a weapon of self-defense. That is what Smith and Wesson does - they make weapons.

That is not to say that it can't serve as your every day carry knife, ready for whatever comes your way. The partial serrations offer a choice in function.

The Teflon coated stainless steel cuts out the blade's reflective surfaces for concealment. The tanto point is a common choice for combat knives, and I like the tanto because the point is actually a second edge. The 440C steel has strength, wear-resistance, and stain-resistance properties. It is generally considered a very good steel with aptitude for general use. A thumb rest is found on the spine of the blade, over the handle, and thumb studs are located on both sides of the blade for quick and easy ambidextrous opening. With a little practice, this knife will be out and ready to go in no time.

The 4.06" stainless steel handle is designed to be lightweight and strong, with black G10 scales and a liner lock that holds the blade solidly. A removable stainless steel clip is included. As well, the knife can be attached via a lanyard hole.

And, carrying a knife in your pocket can become unpleasant as the long miles add up. That's why carabiner knives are great - hook one onto strap, vest, or belt loop somewhere, and it will be ready whenever needed.

Kershaw, headquartered in Oregon, has a variety of carabiner knives available. This particular one, the 5-in-1 Carabiner Tool, is a great example. The 3-inch AUS6A stainless steel blade is partially serrated for a diversity of cutting uses. Also in the tool roster is a flathead screwdriver, Phillips-head screwdriver, and bottle opener. The 4 1/8-inch carabiner handle is made of Teflon coated aluminum - very strong, though not intended for load-bearing use - and has a screwed gate to lock closed. All together, this carabiner knife weighs 2.7 ounces.

Carabiner knives are not the most ergonomic knives in the world. I would not make this my everyday knife. But for an expedition with a lot of gear, it's always a nice touch to have a knife somewhere that is easily accessible. With the carabiner clip, you can ensure that this Kershaw will always be ready to go. It's has a corrosion resistant blade and handle, so this 5-in-1 won't mind exposure to the elements..
