3 out of 5 stars Disappointed in quality of knives   August 13, 2009

I was disappointed with the quality of these knives. When I received them, the plastic handles looked and felt cheap. Even thought they are inexpensive, I still want knives I can use and enjoy.

These knives are affordable, but for me, their quality and performance is questionable. I do not like the handles. They feel lightweight, generic, and substandard, and do not feel good in the hand when using the knives. As someone else mentioned, this is definitely the "value" line of Henckles knives, not the premium line, and you can feel the difference.

I have recently discovered and fallen in love with the Pure Komachi knives by Kai. My Komachi knives have resin-covered handles and don't cost a fortune, but they don't feel cheap. These Henckels knives did.

I'm sticking with my Komachi knives and am returning this set of Henckels to Amazon.



5 out of 5 stars Really, REALLY Sharp!   August 5, 2009

Yes, they are lightweight, but they are EXTREMELY sharp! I can't see using them for major jobs, but for peeling, cutting, slicing & dicing small amounts of food, they are wonderful! I definitely recommend storing in a knife block to prevent accidents. I've been using mine for about 6 months, and they are still razor-sharp. A definite recommendation!


4 out of 5 stars Good product with a good price.   April 2, 2009
Clement Kwan (San Jose, CA ,USA)
Quality knives from JA Henckles with a reasonable price and item was delivered timely. Despite made in China, they all work out fine and made no different with the last sets I had which is of Germany origin.


5 out of 5 stars Not the same as the green paring knife in the 4 knife set   January 19, 2009
Be Well (Boston, MA USA)

I love these knives and was hoping to buy another set for a friend. The green paring knife with this set of 3 is a little shorter than the green knife I already have from a four knife set. Don't know if the product has changed or whether they are actually different.

But they cut beautifully. Sharpest knives I've ever used.



5 out of 5 stars Now that's a knife, mate   December 20, 2008

Couldn't resist the cliche. The 5 star is based upon value. Knives work very well, are very sharp, comfortable to use, and have held up well over just a couple months.
