Are the steak knives serrated or do they have a nice smooth edge?

All the knives are serrated. These knives have been my worst purchase ever. I would return them in a heartbeat if I could. I would highly advise against these knives.

Is the handle rubber or plastic?

Very hard plastic wood looking.

which is the better knife.....the ever edge plus or the international silvercap....i keep reading but confused. also, made in spain or china?

The quality of the build is not even at bar with minimum safety needs for either. The steel in the handle doesn't extend all way, and the handle plastic will break. Amazon basics set is better choice

Specifically what knives (and what size) come in this set?

6 steak, cutting knives (very sharp), bread knife, carving knife, large all purpose knife, culinary knife for veggies and quick chopping, pair of scissors. Very nice set, fully satisfied.
