I'm not talking a knife-- it's the complete set in a butcher block and they will last a lifetime.
I actually had a job selling cutco when I was 18 and really wanted the complete set since then. 11 years later I got my own set when husband bought them for me. I spend a couple hours a day in the kitchen cooking, and they're something I get a lot of use out of, so they are worth it. And honestly, I'm the kinda girl that would rather have a nice set of knives than something with diamonds. We're far from rich, I hope I wasn't coming across that way. I'm a stay at home mom and my husband is enlisted (not an officer) in the Army and we're in our late 20s. He had saved up some money from a deployment and this was my 5 year anniversary present.
I don't know about living on different planets-- pretty much ever good knife set here on Earth runs about that. Can you even buy like a single knife at walmart for $15? The same size Henkel's set is about $800 and in my opinion not nearly as nice. Some of the really nice handcrafted chef knives can sell for $1000 an inch!
Obviously you wouldn't go spend this just for a better chicken knife, when I saw you guys talking about knives I was just saying this is what I have and it's working great. I wasn't trying to imply everyone should run out and by them. But they are a nice thing to go on your long term dream list (took me 11 years to get mine!) Most people who bought them from me were buying as wedding gifts.
