Forschner makes a great set of knives from chef's knives to boning knives. We like the good price and sturdy design, and of course it comes with the America's Test Kitchen recommendation. We have reviewed many of their knife designs below. Forschner 10 1/4 inch Bread Knife Longer than usual blade. Good, comfortable handle design. Forschner 10-inch Chef's Knife Comfortable handle design. Nice sharp blade out of the box. Forschner 3.25-inch Paring Knife At 3.25 inches it might be a little short for some uses. 4 inches is usually too long, so we prefer 3 1/2 inches. Forschner 6-inch Boning Knife Most knife block sets do not come with a boning knife, or with one of low quality. Forschner 7-inch Santoku Knife Santoku knives are made for cutting vegetables but they have become very popular and some people prefer them to chef's knives. We still prefer chef's knives. Forschner 8-inch Carving Knife If you want to cut up a chicken or carve a turkey with ease you will find that a caving knife is useful. Forschner 8-Inch Chef's Knife We generally prefer heavier knives from Wusthof but this is a nice knife and it is much cheaper than the $100 German knives.
