Thought I'd share this amazing deal. I don't think I have ever seen it this cheap. Period.
9/6 2pm: Back in stock (Previously sold out since 7/6 1251am)
CamelCamelCamel.
How do these compare to this deals set? Is the difference the chefs knife having fluting + a small chefs knive vs vegetable knife?
Agreed the bow knife is far more useful in this set and definitely worth the extra $20, the only thing missing here is a fillet knife if you don't plan to cut through large bone then you have all you need !
Just wait for 20% off at peters of kensington, plenty of knives to buy, Global ikasu block with 6 knives can go as low as $270
There is a block set on sale from amazon check the new deal section.
Global Block Set Hiro Shiro Knife Block Set, White $289 Delivered
That's also double the price ?
I think when I replied it was already sold out, back to normal price
nope, not even worth it on sale. lol
Hi OP,
We need more knife deals haha, it's too good to miss it.
Amazon au having issues for anyone else? I cant seem to verify any cards.
Anyone's thoughts about Yaxall vs Shun or Global?
Yes.
What?
Ja.
We have a Yaxall,
Compared to the Furi knife we had before it holds it's edge extremely well. The Furi knife would lose it's edge much quicker in comparison to the Yaxall.
We treated both knives the same, never in the dishwasher, always hand washed, always stored in their box and always cut on a wooden chopping board.
I think the question with knives is more about how prepared are you to look after them? If you are not prepared to treat them well and you chuck them in the knife draw, cut on glass cutting boards and wash in the dishwasher. Just go buy a serrated knife because you're just going to ruin any good knife you buy.
Yaxell dragon bd1n was ryky's no. 1 choice for pairing knife on burrfection.
I'd be keen to buy one as my own pairing knife.
Kitchen warehouse sells yaxell as well
I have Grandsharp Damascus knives (63 layers with VG-10 core made with Japanese steel) made in China and they are superior to Global which I also have. The marketing machine has worked well with a very very popupar cooking show (that I won't mention). Global is a little softer and dulls quicker than the VG-10 grade steel. BTW, it helps to have a diamond knife sharpening stones to sharpen these VG-10 knives a bit quicker as they are pretty hard 62+ on the Rockwell Hardeness scale.
For whom interested in how Chef's Knives Rated.
DISCLAIMER: The opinion is solely to original author of the article. I am not associated with any products mentioned in the article.
Very unscientific test; he basically just tested the edge geometry and how well they were sharpened.
I can sharpen the Cutco to out cut the Global in that test, but it would be a pain in the arse and not worth the effort.

Back in stock.
Back in stock at Amazon Au and back to $129.
I've been using these for like 10 years+ and they're okay, but I really like the Japanese cooking knives you get from the ninja master in the narrow streets of Osaka. A lot of them are made for Japanese cooking but still work great for other purposes!

I got a set for 129 15 mins ago, shopback and all. It appears my mouse finger is well trained after 11 years of Ozbargains.
hmm, that was quick. I managed to buy at $129 @ 2pm
Dammit, missed out again!
Has it shipped for anyone yet?
Received an email earlier tonight saying my order has been dispatched.
This deal is back again! Last one
Back in stock at Amazon Au and back to $129 according to camelx3
Good deal, great knives but once you own these, if youre anything like me youll realise their faults and the potential of higher end knives and end up buying a shun or wusthof
Deal is back!
Great.. Knives again!
Which set is better for all round this or Global 3 Piece Oriental Knife Set
I can't seem to add one to my cart?
please ban knife deals.
Gee - the whole fight confused the hell out of me whether this is a good set or not.
Kept reading the arguments and now its out of stock….Guess I did save some money in the end
Question from a total knife noob: How do you clean these? (Apologies in advance if it's a dumb question).
Background: I am lazy so I much prefer to chuck everything in the dishwasher, knives in the cutlery rack with everything else, but I assume that's not recommended with precision items like these. Dish-washing liquid and hot water?
I also almost never sharpen my knives, and when I do I just use one of the those wooden block built-in sharpeners. And for most food prep I use the Daiso $2.80 knives (27.5 cm kitchen knife with holes). Obviously my knives get kind of blunt after while, so I just buy a new one every 9 months.
So I'm probably committing every single knife faux-pas possible! :-)
But this deal seems way fancier that we need.
I guess I'm wondering if there's a better way, if possible without lots of faffing about or lots of extra cost? Or is the simplest & most economical to just sharpen the Daiso knives every few months? If so, how? First few sharpening stones on Amazon were ~$30, which seems a fair bit.
TL;DR: Open to ideas or suggestions for improving domestic kitchen knife usage, with preference for low-cost and convenient-cleaning.
I would consider this set instead - https://www.amazon.com.au/Global-G-2538-Classic-Kitchen-Stai…
$155 (normally well north of $200)
