Cuisinart 10-Piece Knife Set

So I had a Cuisinart knife set exactly like this however, the one I had was multicolored and this one fit my kitchen aesthetic. This one was such an upgrade and not only in looks. To get it over with yes it looks great. What really wowed me and the wife was the handles on them. The old set was just a plastic grip. Nothing special. This one, I can’t put a name to the material. It doesn’t feel like rubber nor plastic. However it is solid and has a nice kind of suede/rubber feeling. As I said I can’t explain it but it’s very nice to use and feel. The blades on them were all insanely sharp which was expected from these Cuisinart sets. They do the blades well for sure. Feels and looks higher quality in person and honestly for the price; it feels like a set double it’s listing.
