I don't know too much about those knives, but I do know that I'd much rather receive as a gift one really nice knife over a mediocre set. I think too often sets throw in a couple of useless knives, I know out of the set we got for our wedding years ago there's one I use daily and several I've never used. If you know what type of cooking the recipient does, you could tailor your gift with the selection of one or two relevant knives and make it more meaningful. For instance, I bake a lot, I'd love a nice long wavy-serrated bread knife and I'd hide to it make sure it only gets used by me for bread!
