Product Description
In fewer than five years, Rachael Ray has radically changed the way America cooks dinner. Her perky-girl-next-door swagger, her catchphrases for techniques, and her dinner ideology of simpler, less expensive and just in time have sold billions of books and placed her at the top of the talent heap of food television personalities.The F??ri RR East/West Coppertail is two knives in one: a chef's knife shape for classic rocking and sawing action (for heavy professional work) and fine chopper shape for fast vertical chopping (for softer vegetables). It has unique scalloped edge and Coppertail handle. With no handle gaps or joins, there's nowhere for germs to hide, making F??ri Pro one of the easiest knives to keep clean.A solid copper plug is fused into the end of the handle for easy rebalancing, i.e. as the blade wears and becomes lighter over time, copper is filed from the tails to rebalance the knife. The handle wedges into the hand, requiring less 'squeeze' to perform repetitive cutting tasks, resulting in less fatigue and hand strain than conventional handles. F??ri Pro is durable because there are no wood, plastic, rivets or separate pieces that can deteriorate over time.Pro Bamboo Set Includes: 7-in. Coppertail East/West Knife5-in.

Amazon.com Review
The unique "East/West" blade design of Fueri Pro Coppertail knives combines the sharpness and scalloping of a Santoku with the thinness and curved edge of a chef's knife. The result is cutlery that is superb for straight slicing without sticking but that still works into a great rocking motion for speedy mincing or chopping. Not to mention that Coppertail knives are the cutlery of choice for cookbook author and Food Network host Rachael Ray, who has a great deal of clout with home chefs.

This box set packs two Coppertail cook's knife/vegetable chopper knives. The first has a 5-inch blade for handling smaller fare, such as halving cherry tomatoes or slicing mushrooms. The longer 7-inch blade is ideal for bigger jobs, such as chiffonading spinach or slicing large tomatoes. Knives are made of a single piece of high-carbon Japanese stainless-steel alloy so there are no gaps where food particles can get caught and no plastic pieces or rivets that can potentially fall off over time. The strength of this steel allows for an extremely sharp cutting edge that requires minimal maintenance to keep its sharpness.

The ergonomically shaped handles on this cutlery feel lightweight yet properly balanced and provide a comfortable grip through hours of cooking. Handles are curved but have wedge-shaped angles on the top and bottom to reduce the amount of squeezing and hand strain and to prevent slipping when hands are wet or oily. Additionally, these knives have a notch just beyond the bolster that comfortably cradles the index finger and are the only brand with a counterbalancing copper insert at the ends to maintain the ideal weight between handle and blade. After years of sharpenings, the blade can lose a great deal of metal, which throws off the balance of the blade. The copper insert can be honed down to reduce handle weight and restore the proper balance.

These two knives come in a gorgeous bamboo wood gift/storage box with sturdy metal hinges and a magnetic closure on the front. Engineered in Australia and manufactured in China, Fueri Pro cutlery is covered by a limited lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Now if your not used to very sharp knives you are going to have to be very careful with these. My wife proceeded to cut herself numerous time the first time she used them. They are well balanced and are very easy to keep clean. You need to hone them each time you use them to keep them at there best. Great knives and they should do the job for years to come.

I love these knifes. I don't cook everyday but when I do these make my life a lot easier. I don't need 12 different kinds so I was happy to see this set of two. The grip is very comfortable, it's nice and lightweight. I'm know the other reviewers have talked about the sharpness. I love how sharp they are, thats he whole point right?

These knives are a pleasure. My parents bought me my first 'good' knife about 6 months ago, and finally decided to take the plunge for this pair.

The small one is even great for my nine year old daughter.



4 out of 5 stars Good knife set, but watch for mislabeling   August 8, 2008
I was sent a mislabled Gusto Grip set instead. These are very nice in that they have a rubber grip. I would have prefered the coppertail ones, as they match the decor of our kitchen, but the ones I received are great!

I love these knives. They are exceptionally sharp and will even slice freshly baked bread without mashing it down. Veggies are like butter. I would urge you to put these in your knife collection. But, then again, you may not use the old ones at all!!
