UNSURE ON WHAT TO BUY?

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2021

Color: Stainless SteelSize: 14-pcStyle: ModernVerified Purchase

PLEASE READ ENTIRE REVIEW! For starters these knives are AMAZING! I only hand wash/hand dry my knives & I make sure they are immediately placed back into the block. My father purchased the Calphalon 20pc Sharp-IN set for $300 & loves them. After using these for a week straight they are (in my opinion) similar, but much better! I've researched & looked at a lot of sets over the years, but I was not ready to throw hundreds of dollars on a set. I came across these recently for a little under $200 I pulled the trigger. These are extremely comfortable in the hand! The handle is beautiful & the curve on the butt of the knife helps give a very natural, well balanced feel when cutting, slicing, or chopping.

**EXTRA NOTE FOR THOSE THAT WANT MORE INFO**
#1 - I read a lot of other peoples reviews before purchasing & noticed a lot of reviews with rust spots. If you hand wash & dry your knives completely you will never have to worry about the rust spots. No matter the brand, or price ALL knives can rust! Especially if you wash them in the dishwasher & don't fully hand dry them before placing them back into the block.
#2 - Also saw a lot of complaints about the UTILITY knife not sitting down like the Serrated Utility (LEFT) & the Parer (RIGHT) This is simply because the Utility knife has a much larger blade than the Parer so it sits on top of the ceramic sharpener inside the block & the Serrated knives do NOT have the sharpeners inside their slots so it allows them to rest downward. IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE OFFSET LIKE THAT. Some may have an OCD fit with it being a little offset, but trust me these knives are AMAZING! If it fits your budget I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! 10/10

Just unpacked them - sharp and well made. On the first use they cut very well. My only disappointment was that, out of the box, the boning knife already had rust on the handle and blade. Rust is understandable if not cared for properly, but this was already rusted straight from the packaging.

Fantastic knives!

Color: Stainless SteelSize: 14-pcStyle: ModernVerified Purchase

These knives are fantastic. I’ve been in the kitchen a lot more and practicing knife safety like a crazy person because they are sharp! The self sharpening helps with maintenance but they still need some love. Fantastic for the price.

My only negative is the block comes out very far from the wall so adjusting placement on the counter took me some time. They work so well I adjusted to the size.

Decided to treat myself with some high end knives since I cook a lot. These have been fun to cook with, especially since they stay sharp.

Customer service is top notch too. They definitely stand by their brand.

I like this set

Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2023

Color: Stainless SteelSize: 14-pcStyle: ModernVerified Purchase

Very sharp knives that feel sturdy in my hand when using. Scissors are sturdy and sharp too. The only thing I would change is the block should sit more upright because it takes up more counter space than any of my previous knife sets. But overall I like it, great quality, nice look and I would buy it again.

Buyers beware! These “German” knives are made in EITHER China or India…and not the same!

Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2024

Color: Stainless SteelSize: 14-pcStyle: ModernVerified Purchase

With the name and reputation that Henckels carries, you’d expect these knives to be top notch. However, after unpacking my first set of “German” knives, I quickly learned that I was about to let down…severely. First, I noticed that the silver part of the block was scratched, the blades were stamped with the words “Made in China”, and the handles were either split or nicked pretty significantly. Three strikes, they’re out. However, with a quick call to Amazon, they offered to ship me a whole new set and they arrived less than 24 hours later. As I was unpacking the new set, I noticed some slight differences in the new box (the color of it, the visuals, etc.) but didn’t think anything of it because boxes get updated all the time and the UPCs were the same. Until… I opened the box and started washing the supposed SAME set of knives. This is when I noticed the knives were now stamped “Made in India”, had a slightly different feel to them, and the stain on the block was significantly lighter. While I was shocked, I was willing to overlook all of this because at least these knives were in better shape/were a better quality (IMHO) and I actually did prefer the color of this block better. But then, later that night as I was cooking, I couldn’t get the pairing knife out of the block and it is now stuck in the self-sharpener! I am beyond disappointed and going to be requesting yet another replacement…from India!
