I'm incredibly sorry to hear that you're disappointed with the knife set. We have not had any other feedback of this nature and do feel that this item is of very good quality, so perhaps you have received a faulty item? Please do bear in mind however that the finish on this set is intended to be slightly distressed, since it is an aged, antique look effect.
I can see that you have not contacted us at all about your order, to arrange for this item to be returned. You are of course welcome to return items to us, providing they are still in their original condition and packaging, so don't hesitate to contact us if you would like to do so. Naturally, if the item is faulty, then we will of course look into this for you, so do drop us an email on info@miafleur.com if you'd like to discuss anything with us.
My apologies again that you were unhappy with this item. Kind regards, Hollie
