So I live in Olean across the street from Erick Laine, the Founder and former CEO of CUTCO Knives and he just happens the own the house that my wife and I rent. Well he wanted to come over and meet us so he came over and even brought us a set of knives as a wedding present!!! HOLY CRAP!!! I was so impressed with this man, not because he brought us the knives but because he’s the most down to earth multi-millionaire I’ve ever met. It was great to be able to talk to someone who created a business like CUTCO. The point I guess is that i realized why the company was so successful. Mr Laine never lost the basic principals he started with, real high quality products and great service for a fair price.

I’ll tell you that those knives are the best knives I’ve ever used in my life and Mr Laine is absolutely someone I look up to.

Anyone ever use/own a set?

Keep in touch with him. You should keep people like that close.
Sounds like a worthy role model.

My mom every year took her set down to the factory to get them sharpened when they visited me at Bonas.
Plus you can pick up cheap ones at the store that have slight discolorations in the handles.

My parents own a set. Very nice knives. I cut myself the first time I used one when they were new. fucking finger didn’t stop bleeding for a while.

Dave, I had a set at my place down in Florida(gave them to the neighbors when I left, his wife loved them). They are incredible knives, lifetime warranty no matter what the reason that you are dissatisfied with them they will replace at no cost.
