I have between this set with 68 pieces and a need to decide commercially available from Berndorf with 67 parts. The decisive point which I have chosen this set was the design. We use it in everyday use and are very satisfied. The cutlery has a 1 class quality and looks really incredibly well. When the knife is clearly a "cutter" ... with my old cutlery set were classic "butter knife" there. They were good for bread but lubricate when it came to meat I always took steak knife. In these, it is the other way around. Cut meat very well and without problems, however, lubricate the bread I would not take them ... I guess still the old (also because they are too good for this activity) That with the "problem" of the speakers (which at the knife, the liquid flows upward because of the form) I can not confirm. We eat a lot of juice (shredded turkey, goulash, stew etc) and because I am not yet happened. When we eat soup I need the knife anyway because the deposits anyway so weichgegarrt are that you can also share with the Loeffen (whether Savoury meals vegetables, liver dumplings, semolina dumplings etc.) I think that set the look and the quality tip. The dishwasher survived without problems =)
