Not only in grandma's kitchen but our parents and now our kitchen.. these are some of the Old Hickory knives our grand-parents used and must be 70-80 years old and still very serviceable. I bought our set in 1970 and they are still used daily. However, I had to replace the paring knives a couple of years ago (they just disappear??) and the blades on the new knives are thinner and the wood used for the handles definitely isn't hickory -
