Product Description
Amazon.com Review
This is the ultimate knife set. It includes 11 kitchen knives--every blade needed for every situation--plus eight steak knives for the dining room; a meat fork; a rugged pair of kitchen shears; a 10-inch sharpening steel to keep knife edges aligned; a 22-slot oak block to store everything on the counter; and (finally!) a knife-skills instruction video to convert any cook, novice or seasoned, into a pro. Classic three-rivet handles with black synthetic grips and full tangs distinguish the Pro S cutlery line from Henckels's other premium knives. Otherwise, this set's knives embody Henckels's renowned knife-making craft. Except for fully forged blades less than 6 inches long, blades and bolsters of Henckels's premier cutlery lines are high-tech welded to combine three types of high-carbon stainless steel into what appears to be a single piece so a knife's parts have distinct, desirable characteristics. Henckels says the welds are even stronger than the steel.
The 11 high-carbon stainless-steel kitchen knives in the set are a 2-1/2-inch peeler; a 4-inch parer; a 5-inch serrated utility that's perfect for tomatoes and thin-skinned fruits; a 6-inch straight-edge utility; a 5-1/2-inch boning; an 8-inch slicer; a 10-inch Granton slicer with hollows alternating on its sides so thin slices don't stick to the blade; an 8-inch bread knife with large scallops for slicing crusty loaves; a heavy cleaver; and both 10-inch and 8-inch chef's knives for rocking through chopping and mincing tasks. The eight steak knives have straight edges for neatly slicing through meat fibers. Though both knives and fork are dishwasher-safe, the knives should be hand washed to protect edges. Made in Germany, this set carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

A Reliable Standard in Knife Construction
Twin Pro S knives are precision forged from a single piece of exclusive-formula, high-carbon, no-stain steel under the all-new Sigmaforge standard. As a result, Twin Pro S knives have improved quality consistency, lasting sharpness, and perfect geometry. Sigmaforge one-piece construction also provides high precision and improved stability of the blade and steel structure, thus improving cutting-edge retention for lasting sharpness. In addition, Twin Pro S knives use J.A. Henckels’s Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention .
An Ergonomic Handle for Easier Use
 | J.A. Henckels’s Twin Pro S knives boast a comfortable, ergonomic three-rivet handle design that won’t wear against the hand and helps to provide control when doing any cutting task. These durable Novodur handles are perfectly bonded to the full tang on each knife for stability and durability. The impeccably balanced super bolster provides weight and adds balance for safer and more professional cutting. |
