Yes, anywhere and everywhere you purchase knife sets if there is a block included, it counts as a 'piece'.

Admittedly, this IS kind of a steal. Apparently it's worth $1000.

Much more importantly, will it work with the Roomba?

It's not that quality knives shouldn't cost this much, it's that people who really need that kind of knife are unlikely to buy them in a set with a wooden germ holder.

These are aimed at people who will pay a lot for something they don't really know how to use, thinking that having expensive knives will make them a better cook.

Did they mention they're packaged in 5 $100 bills?

I don't know, but if he's selling $59.95 knife sets for $525, he's got the right idea!

At that price, these knives better come with the Asian that made them and it better be a hot female Asian!!!

This is a great set, but I can't take good care of knives. I received a set of Wolfgang Puck knives for Christmas and I've already ruined half of them.

A little cheaper would be nice on this one woot!

That being said, great knives for a pretty good price(retail for around $900). If you have the $ jump on it.
I'm thinking about it

I thought this was a joke. Then found www.it-echo.com - Sure enough, $530. So no bargain here.

Why is it a 9 slot block with 10 slots in it?

I'm thinking the two-foot-long handle on the 5' utility knife is too big for me.

I think I would rather buy a PS3 and some games or some hookers and blow....but a knife block $500 really? If I found myself spending that kind of cash on a knife set I would really have to sit back and re-evaluate where my life went wrong.
