Good Points

Whilst looking stylish, they're functional, sharp, and have a heavy weight feel.


Bad Points

Prone to corrosion - badly!


General Comments

We chose the Evolution kitchen knives from John Lewis as part of our wedding list as they looked stylish. With John Lewis putting their name on it, we thought the quality wouldn't be too bad.

Unfortunately, we were wrong. Less than two months after we received them, the utility knife started to corrode. I was shocked! These were supposed to be high quality stainless steel knives!

We took them back to the store (Bluewater, Dartfod UK) to ask for an exchange. We were happy to accept that it was one that slip passed JL's usual high standards. But no...

We were told it was because of the way we use the knife that caused the problem.

    Had mine ages - wanted more in the range because they are so good. But the style has changed unfortunately.

    Mine are perfect. No staining or corrosion. But they do always get hand washed as I found years ago that dishwashers and stainless cutlery do not mix very well.
