I received these knives as a wedding gift two years ago, and I have probably used them every day since, and for some intense cooking projects. They have held up beautifully. I sharpen them every few months, and they are still cutting and chopping just as well as when I first used them.
Coming from low-end budget knives stuck in a drawer together, I noticed the difference immediately. Because of the full-length tang, the knives are perfectly steady in my hand while I chop; there is no "wobbling." Most importantly, the knives cut through anything I give them immediately and cleanly. The only time I had some difficulty was with an especially tough pumpkin, but after using some more muscle, the knife handled that well, too.
I like the seven-piece set because it seems to address all of my knife-needs (and I cook an elaborate dinner almost every evening). The only overlap is with the 4 1/2" utility knife and the paring knife. Since they are similar in size, they can be used for almost the same functions. I use the paring knife for cutting very small things, like strawberries, and the utility knife for cutting slightly longer things, like when I cut bell peppers into strips.
I love the bread knife and find that it also works really well for cutting tomatoes into thin slices.
And the crowning glory of this set is the 8" cook's knife, which makes a sound like drawing a sword from a sheath when you pull it from the block. I have been continually impressed with how the knife allows me to dice virtually anything with little trouble.
These knives are my favorite things in the kitchen, and they make cooking a thoroughly enjoyable process every time.

My wife and I bought these knives through another retailer and have loved them. They are sharp, sharp, sharp. Slicing tomatoes is so smooth and easy and hard veggies like carrots cut like butter.It's nice that this set includes the honing steel. With proper care these should last a very long time.
I will say be careful! I cut up several kitchen towels without realizing it when I dried the knives after washing! I've also knicked my fingers once or twice I'm used to our old dull and chipped knives. These are very sharp and can cut you without you even realizing it has happened.
