do the knives cut steak with ease

Well enough. I wouldn't put them in the same class as the rest of what Wusthof has to offer. These are strictly retail level flatware. The quality is what you would expect from any set you can purchase in a department store. If you want top-notch quality, you have to purchase steak knives from one of their collections (Ikon, Classic, Grand Prix, etc).

I have not had any problems cutting with these knives. My old ones were so bad they should of been replaced long ago. It is a pleasure having a good knife

These are amazing quality knives, I bought them for my brother as a fathers day gift. He wanted some good quality knives, and from my culinary experience around different styles and brands this is one of my fav's for the price.

It may take a little extra muscle on your part, but the blades are sharp enough. We haven't had a problem with any type of meat, yet.

Knives are not steak knives, I have to provide steak knives when that is served. It'll provide a cut for other food such as chicken and tender meats, veggies, salads, etc. to cut up into bite sized pieces. Hope this helps you.

Yes, these knives cut meat very well. I have used them to slice steak and turkey.

Smooth, and very sharp. Occasional maintenance on the blades will guarantee they cut through steak like buter.

no but it open easier than some assisted opening knives I own such as my kershaw cryo. I find most knives that I own open much faster than assisted opening knves and its one less thing that can break.

I'm not sure what the technical differences are but the chef knife is ultra sharp, trims fat easily and goes through raw steak with one stroke -- no sawing, and no effort needed. I love these knives, which retain their edges. Inexpensive and work great; what's not to love?

They are very good knives indeed. The only thing you need to know is they are a bit on the "light" side - slim handles on the steak knives, but they are great overall - very sharp - very durable.

Yes. My mother came to visit and was impressed with them. Easy to clean is a big reason for me to enjoy them. I use the large skillet to do a steak every now and then and it works great. My only complaint is the skillets could be deeper.

Most don't. We always keep our knives sharpened well and haven't had a problem. However, I bought a super sharp Victorinox bread knife with an edge with tiny serrations, and put it in there. It did cut at least one of the inner plastic rods. I decided not to store it there anymore.

Alison...yes, they are. In fact I now use them instead of a steak knife. We are VERY satisfied with the set.

I love these knives. I've chopped potatoes and carrots and haven't had any problems. They will not hold up to deboning or other twisting actions, but for normal chopping or slicing they are great.

They are butter knifes not for cutting steaks. This set was a gift for my wife and she loves it. Paul Lumbar

Hello, Yes the knives are very sharp and elegant. We never had any complaints.

It is if you use it correctly. The handles hold the vegetables and will keep your hands away from the blades. As soon as you are done slicing turn the cutting width dial to the safety position. Be careful.
