The knives you ask about were sold by Fingerhut in the early 1980's. The set was approximately 17-18 knives without a block. The set included 8 steak knives and 1 each of a Carver, Chef, Butcher, Fillet, Boning, Paring, Bread, Cleaver and a fork. It possibly had another knife, maybe a large paring knife. The set did come with a sharpening rod. The cleaver had a slight serated edge which you don't find on modern cleavers. The knives were stamped on the handles but in time many wear off. I have never had a fillet knife as great as the one in this set and only recently saw a cleaver I semi like; a used vintage cleaver similar in design. While not as expensive and fancy as many sets, I have used this set daily for 35 years and the knives are still in excellent condition. I now have some modern high quality knives but I always revert back to this set for certain things. The bread knife is by far superior to any modern bread knife because it actually slices instead of mutilating like some with the enormous serrated edges. Unfortunately they are almost impossible to find now. I'd love to buy another cleaver, fillet and bread knife.
