I believe the ones at Sam's are Ceramic. That is the set that I have and I have not had to sharpen them at all. I also purchased this set form my daughter thinking they were the same. She has had to sharpen hers . I really like the set from Sam's...and it is less expensive.

They are high carbon stainless steel and my set is doing well for over a year now..

These are like a non-stick coated stainless. steel. I absolutely love them. Would recommend them to anyone!!

I have a large set for home and I LOVE them! This set is for a winter home we just purchased so I did not need a bunch of knives. I'm assuming they're German--I just know they're great quality!

They are made of high carbon German steel. That doesn`t necessarily mean they`re made there. But I`ve worked in the steel industry most of my life, and I can tell you that High Carbon German Stainless is great for knives. I also have a Cut-co set for special occasions, but these knives are a very close second.I bought this set mainly for space savings, but was nicely surprised by the quality.

I can't tell you, but it's lightweight & dishwasher safe. Incidently this is by far the best knife I have ever owned & I have had chicago cutlery, Wusthuf. ceramic & others. I am very picky about knives. I believe they make cooking a chore or a pleasure. I wish I could tell you more about the handle, sorry.

They're made of porcelain, but you can put them in the microwave. You'll need to be a little extra careful with them, though, as they seemed to chip more easily than stoneware. They're very beautiful in person, though.

Hello, The blade is made of 1045 high carbon steel. The blade is not sharp enough for use but the tip is sharp so be cautious. It's definitely a great showpiece.

It's not ceramic. It's made out of some kind of plastic. It definitely stands up to the heat of cooking though.

I actually don't know what type of steel these are made from. They are swiss made and they are the favorite knife of Cooks illustrated/ America Test Kitchen. That is why I bought one, and I am very happy with it.There are other responders to my comments and they say it is stainless steel. Someone else says it is high carbon stainless steel with a 15 degree angle. Another said it is a Victornox and they are the worlds best knife maker. So NOW I'M really glad I bought one.

This knife is not the San Mai III. It is made of 01 steel. The San Mai is more expensive.

It is some type of stainless steel. Different than the SCHF9 which is a high carbon steel. Both well made extremely strong knives. Only down side is difficult to sharpen due to curve of the blade. Scrade just came out with a new improved model for around the same price with even better options like an included diamond stone and flin and steel. I highly recommend buying the SCHF38 instead.

I apologize, but I haven't had the packaging for a while. As I recall, the knife material is 8cr13.

Not sure. But these are the best knives I have ever bought. They stay sharper longer than any Chicago Cutllery knives that I have owned. High quality. You will love this set. The only thing I don't like is NO HOLE for the scissors.

Hi Karen, You'll like this set. The knife is serrated and cuts very nicely and has a solid handle. Enjoy, Doug

I am pretty sure it's solid ceramic. I have been using this system for many years and once dropped one of these and it broke. There was nothing but white ceramic bits left. Nothing else.

The set is ceramic. It is an eco none stick surface that is absolutely infallible. It is beautiful, functional and looks much more expensive than it is.

Never ever sharpen ceramic knives yourself. They require a professional. If they are treated well and correctly, they won't need sharpening often and should last for many many years.

Sorry I couldn't help you on that. Nothing is been written on the box nor was it stamped on the cutlery itself where is it made from.
