Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This seven-piece knife set from J.A. Henckels benefits from the company's 260 years in the cutlery business. Each knife is made from stamped, high-carbon, no-stain steel blades that have been ice-hardened, which results in a very long-lasting cutting edge. The set includes a 3-inch paring knife for cutting and paring fruits and vegetables, a 6-inch utility knife for slicing, an 8-inch carving knife for carving turkey or roast beef, an 8-inch chef's knife designed to rock on the cutting board for better slicing of fruits and vegetables, and an 8-inch bread knife. The set also includes a sharpening steel with its own slot in the solid hardwood knife block. The block has an additional three slots for adding knives as the need arises. Each knife has a full-length tang (meaning the metal blade continues all the way through to the end of the handle) that provides better balance and a stronger knife, and the Novadur plastic handles are unbreakable and impact- and acid-resistant and won't fade over time. These knives are dishwasher-safe, but be careful that the blade doesn't touch other objects; hand washing is recommended to keep steel blades scratch free. --Doree Armstrong

What's in the Box
3-inch paring; 6-inch utility; 8-inch carving; 8-inch chef's; and 8-inch bread knives; sharpening steel; hardwood block with three additional slots



Product Description

Whatever the task, chances are this set has the knife you need. All the basics of chopping, peeling, and slicing are covered. A sharpening steel and storage block will keep your knives sharp, efficient, safe to use, and safely stored. This set offers a nice compromise in terms of price and quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars High-quality basic knife set, April 28, 2000
By A Customer
This is a terrific present for someone who's getting serious about cooking--that's how I got mine! There's no piece of equipment that's more important than a good set of cooking knives. These have held up over ten years, three households (with some careless users), and numerous sharpenings and show every sign of outlasting me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good but buy the forged blades instead, July 6, 2001
Although Henkels is night and day better than most stamped blades, you are better off to pay the extra and get a set of forged blades (like the Henkels four star).

Stamped blades don't last as long, they don't keep an edge nearly as well and they don't have the weight that comes from a good quality forged blade.

If you are unsure of the difference, buy a 8" forged chef's knife and see how much better it works.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good price for a GREAT set of knives, July 16, 2001
These knives have survived hard cooking for five years and counting, with only two sharpenings. The handle is comfortable, although it can be nicked in the dishwasher.

The knives have good, one-piece blades. Although the handles are not the best, they are by and large sturdy and comfortable (occasional nicks aside).

I was recommended this set of knives by a professional chef, and they work more than well in my non-professional kitchen. The only problem with this block set is that it lacked two necessary items--kitchen shears and a bread knife. However, buy them separately--there is space for them in the knife block.

...this set is a great deal and will more than adequately serve even the busiest amateur chef.
