 I like Henckels...higher end knives. March 7, 2010

Wanted something above the everyday knife, but not as high-end as our $350 set of 7. We liked the expensive Henckels, so figured we would add these to our new stainless decor. After about 4 months, we started to notice rust spots and the rubber grips were pitting, slightly. We do not wash these in the dishwasher; we learned that lesson with a more expensive Soduku knife that was ruined. The micro-serrated blades are good for cutting most meats and vegetables, but aweful for rare/soft meats and cheese. Overall, they aren't terrible knives, just not worth the $70 price tag.
 all is good EXCEPT February 19, 2010

This was a gift and was very well recieved.The assortment of knives gave exactly what was needed. BUT The large carving knife (8"#15550-200) began to show pitting and rust within one week. cutting edge is in tack, but it leads to concern about the life of the set.
 Awful! February 18, 2010

Bought this set about 9 months ago and couldn't be more disappointed. The quality is poor, the knives are light and flimsy, and they began rusting almost immediately. Even with minimal use, the knives have dulled to the point that we don't even use them anymore. Not sure how they got the J.A. Henckels name on them, but they are crap and a complete waste of money.
Quality Henckels February 17, 2010

Since I am not a professional chef, I was not looking for a top of the line Henckels set. I wanted a set that was functional,good looking and reasonably priced. This 17 piece set fit the bill nicely. I have read some of the other reviews which mention rusting and dullness. I have not encountered any of these problems. It is true that any quality steel will rust if water is left on it,but with care the knives will not rust. They remain sharp as the day I got them and I use them frequently. One note though, they really are not diswasher safe but just as I would not put my Lenox china in the diswasher, I would not subject any quality cutlery to the brutality of the diswasher. If you are a "Family Chef" like me, buy this set.
excellent value! February 2, 2010

Great set- came exaclty as described. This is a very good set for someone who does a good amount of cooking and likes a good set of knives. For the price, I think this is the best overall value, comes with the steak knives and all other necessary knives for pretty much any type of cooking. They are very sharp and have a good edge, balance and overall quality. The only thing that I think could improve this set is if it came with kitchen shears. I highly reccomend this set to everyone.
