It's time to buy some new steak knives for the table. My current set, well over 20 years old, came with a Henckels block set. I basically destroyed them by putting them in the dishwasher before I knew better. They don't hold an edge anymore, despite professional sharpening. I'd also prefer something with more heft.

I'm looking for a good quality steak knife set. The only brick and mortar shops I have nearby are Bed Bath Beyond and Sur La Table, so my options are somewhat limited. I'm willing to go to the internets to buy but only based on strong recommendation from those who actually have the knives. So let's hear what you have to say.

And I promise not to put them in the dishwasher!
