Inspect your block carefully!
3 Stars
Inspect your block carefully!
Would have given it 5 stars, BUT the block had a discolored spot on it (quite a large spot actually) AND a nick out of the side which you can tell was already there because it's smooth and varnished over. The nick is right below the light spot, both on left side. Looks like the light spot either wasn't varnished, or didn't hold the varnish for some reason. Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm a perfectionist. So this, of course, drives me nuts! It looks like a big water spot. Not appealing on your counter top. Other than that, pleased with the knife set itself. They wash up great. Scissors are nice too. I just don't feel that this product would ever be displayed at a store (with the spot and dent on it), so why should I receive this kind of quality when I mail order? Is it because retailers know that it's more trouble than it's worth to return it? I love online shopping, but when I receive something like this with an apparent flaw, I feel it's being "pawned off" on the consumer. They know that 9x out of 10 people won't go through the trouble of returning. For this reason, I don't think that I would order from World Kitchen again. In the event they reach out to me to make this right, I will update my feedback.
