So my parents got a knive set from St. Moritz, and wanted to give them to me. I'm an hobby cook, who just likes cooking simple stuff. I have barely any knowledge about knives or treating them, so here I am. I just had some questions about the knives, since I'm not sure if these are legit.
Here's a picture of the knife set:
Whenever I google the knives, I only get shady sites and stories about people being scammed. Is this brand legit? The booklet that's included says the entire set is worth around 730 euros, but I can't find anything online.
And assuming the knives are legit, are there any tips on treating/using them? Can these be put in the dishwasher when cleaning, or should I refrain from that?
I have a magnetic bar on my wall to store knives, but is it bad to put 'good' knives on them?
They are kind of blunt at the moment, but I have barely any experience sharpening them, should I bring them to a special shop or something?
Thank you for your help! Just figuring out how to use these, if they're legit to begin with.
