We live on our boat, almost full time. Although our galley is about the size of a medium on-land kitchen, the space for cutlery is relatively compact. The Pro-S series, in general is superior to any knife I have ever used. Specifically the 5 inch serrated utility knife is the single most used knife in our collection. For slicing veggies or anythng with a crust there is no equal. For slicing tomatoes it is almost a joke between Liz and I, that we can make one tomato last for a week because we can make the slices so thin and even.

This is the perfect knife. I have many, many other knives of various brands including Cutco, and I always find myself reaching for this one. Well worth the price! I always throw mine in the dishwasher and after several years, still no sign of rust.

I've owned a 5-inch Henkels serrated knife for about a year. The piece of metal that's riveted in the handle broke. I might expect the black synthetic portion of the handle to break, but the "forged stainless steel"? Pretty disappointing.

My husband and I LOVE these knives. We use them for everything from slicing bagels to tomatoes. They are great!

The Professional S series has been a blessing in our family in the two years since it replaced a set of those cheapo "Never-needs-sharpening" knives.

And the most used knife in the lot is this one, the 5-inch serrated knife. Whether you are slicing a few vegetables, peeling a fruit, or want an ultra-deluxe steak knife of the gods, this is the one.

The Professional S design is a classic that will hold up well over the years.

I've had this knife for over a year and it does a great job on tomatoes. I originally bought it as a bread knife, but the blade is not really long enough to do the job. Needless to say, I've found other uses for it.

If you are buying it to slice bread--take a pass on it.

This is the most used knife in our kitchen. I've had two Pro-S 5" serrated knives for many years now, and the edges still cut razor sharp. That unfortunately applies to fingertips too. Don't daydream when you use these, please! A very well-made, solid knife. If hand-washed/dryed as the manufacturer recommends, they will last a long time. These knives can be found much cheaper on Ebay and elsewhere once in awhile. If you are a cheapskate like me, online-shopping diligence pays off. In return, you will own an excellent utility knife.

Received the knife I order very quickly and without problems. The price was much cheaper than I could find both on the internet and through local stores that sold it. Would recommend this company to other. Thanks.

I had this knife for many years. I dropped it on a tile floor, and the blade broke--I guess it was pretty brittle. I thought I was getting an exact replacement, but the instant I held the new knife, it felt lighter. I weighed both pieces of my broken knife, and the new knife, and sure enough, the new knife weighed less! Had I realized it was inferior, I would have shopped in person, so that I got a knife that felt good to me. This one feels "cheap," but at just under $70, it was not. I've been using it for a while now, and it's just not the same. I'll be looking for another one.

This knife was purchased as a replacement for a knife we have lost that was part of a set. I was careful to choose one that had the same look as the old one. This matches the set but seems to be alot sharper than the one we had. I am very pleased with the quality and the look of it.
