Default Pricey set

and "free" shipping, what a deal. Since the mid 1990s I have a cheap set of Chicago Cutlery, that I bought at KMart in Northern Virginia. I think that I paid around $29 for the set and block. They still take and keep an edge. I sharpen them occasionally and soak the handles (walnut) in olive oil. I don't imagine that I will be buying any $3000 sets off Amazon.

Mine had wood handles as well but I use Mineral oil. Less likely to attract unwanted critters.
