Ronco Showtime Six Star Gourmet Cutlery

T. Nelson from NY writes about Showtime Six Star Gourmet Cutlery:

I recieved the Ronco Six Star Cutlery knives with the large knife block for Christmas. The knives have very cheap handles, rust after just one washing, and the set came missing 2 knives. Customer service is horrific. I waited for 20 minutes for a representative who barely spoke English and discovered that they want to charge me $5.00 shipping for each knife. The set looks impressive at first- just looking at the sheer number of knives, but once you work with them you will be quick to realize they are cheap knives that dull quickley.

My husband purchased these a year ago off the infomercial. We have not had a single problem! They have stayed VERY sharp, no rusting, and we absolutely LOVE them! They couldn't be better for the price! We just need to get the knife block now...

2 sets for 3 payments of only $13.33 deal I couldn't resist the superior claims on the info-mercial, cheap cost, etc., and finally placed an order. Firstly, the Wooden Block Holder weighs a ton and takes up a lot of space. It is also cheap looking next to higher end cabinets, appliances. The knife set deal (which supposedly includes knives that sell for $75 each) states you pay a little over a dollar per knife with their deal. They perform and last like knives that cost a dollar each, period. Easily dull, and pit. I was really looking for a few great chef quality knives. I hate cheap knives. These are cheap knives and NOT chef quality. If you don't mind Dollar store type knives, they are fine. If you are expecting quality, buy 1 or 2 quality chef knives. Shipping was $40. I have also heard of many persons getting charged repeatedly, esp if paying by paypal or using the 3 payment plan. Ronco will also only replace a knife when u send yours back & you pay for all ship/handling for both mailings. Beware and be warned.

I've had this set for 2 years, and have yet to sharpen a knife. These knives are sharp, very sharp, and hold their edge well! I use the Chef's knife, bread knife, cheese knife, and paring knife daily, they're wonderful! The carving knife slices thru roasts like a hot knife thru butter! I do not allow the kids {teenagers all} to touch these knives! {Yes, they're that sharp!} And, I only use them on a wooden cutting board, and clean them immediately after use with warm soapy water, dry them and store them in a knife block.

My son bought my set over 3 years ago and I absolutely love them. I have never had to sharpen one, none have broken and they still look brand new after many, many uses!

CJ from WI writes about Ronco knife set:

These knifes look good at first, came very dull, there was no way to cut bread they way the TV infomercial showed. The wooden block is huge, made out of cheap pine and is only worth fire wood. DO NOT purchase them. As the infomercial said, tell a friend, YES! Tell them all this is a rip off
