What is .925 Sterling Silver?
The Short Answer:
Sterling silver consists of at least 92.5 percent silver and 7.5% percent of other metals like copper, nickel, or both. The reason for this is Pure Silver or Fine Silver, is very soft and very malleable making it easy to damage or bend. Other metal alloys like copper or nickel are added to the silver to make a more durable piece.
All items sold by Silver Superstore as “Sterling Silver” contain at least 92.5% percent Silver and are stamped with either “.925”, “Sterling Silver”, or both.

What does " w/stamp " mean?
As of April 2022, Fortessa is no longer stamping their logo in their flatware pieces. We do have some stock left of the stamped versions. If you are looking to match your older, stamped, pieces you will want to select the pieces denoted with “w/stamp”.

4.5 out of 5 stars
Great product and great workmanship. Would prefer the steak knife set handle to be a little bigger.
Excited to receive my 18-pc professional S set. However, I was a little disappointment to find that the steak knives are “Twin Gourmet”, not “Professional S”, and are actually half serrated, half straight, and not completely straight as the photos would indicate.
Professional S is terrific line of knives. They feature a traditional straight bolster and a slightly smaller handle. As a result they are a little lighter than the new Pro line. I have owned one of these knives for years (more than 10). It has performed year in and year out, and I cook a lot. I sharpen it maybe twice a year. I always hand-wash all my knives, even though they are dishwasher safe; that's probably why mine looks almost new. This set has every knife a person would need for a long, long time. The only thing it's missing is a carving set for the holidays. Maybe a 7" filleting knife if you like to prep your own fish.
My wife and I had a collection of knives from a box store and got by just fine. We started talking about upgrading to a professional group of knives because our old collection wasn't cutting the mustard for the amount of cooking we were doing while home and not going to restaurants. This collection came up, and we went to William Sonoma to test them out and fell in love. Two days into using our new collection and we can't imagine cooking without them and are disappointed in ourselves that we hadn't purchased them sooner. Great price and perfect collection to move anyone into a better cooking experience. Thank you.
