This classic 6-inch utility knife is made from high-grade, rolled stainless steel and produced using Henckels's Sintermetal Component Technology. This process allows different grades of steel to be combined to form a single integral piece capable of withstanding extreme stress. The cutting edge features a special coating on one side that ensures prolonged sharpness without resharpening, and its full-length tang (the part of the blade that continues through to the end of the handle) gives you a better-balanced and stronger knife. Its metal bolster is shaped as a finger guard, and the polypropylene handle is nearly indestructible: impact and acid resistant, it won't fade and is dishwasher-safe. --Doree Armstrong

Henchels InternatonalClasssic 6-inch utility knife July 16, 2008
I finely got the set together after getting this knife. Boy what a great set of knives. Talking about sharp. You have to be real careful with these knives especially if you have been using dule knives in the kitchen. Me and my wife have cut ourselves with these knives many times. They are razor sharp andeasy to keep that way.

I received my utility knife several weeks ago ande was so pleased with it that I ordered one more for myself and some for my family members. I first noticed the weight and suspension of the knife and felt it to be excellent. I find that when carving and chopping that is important. I also like the length of the 16 inch blade for all my uses.

The knife I purchased had a smaller handle than I expected; however, it cuts wonderfully.

Fantastic bargain on a great knife April 19, 2004

This is the go-to knife for just about everything: slicing tasks when the paring knife just isn't big enough, cutting vegetables where you need more control and precision than a larger chef's knife would give you, and even cutting open the occasional box now and again.

It's a great length (not too short, not too long) and has a substantial feel to it. It has well-forged blade and while it's not a Pro-S or a 4-star (and it shows a bit: though it doesn't matter, the finish isn't as nice), mine lasted through two years of heavy use befor needing a professional re-sharpening. And it only needed it a little bit then -- it was still sharp enough to be safe and effective. Mine never stained, and clean-up just involved hand washing with a mild detergent. As with any good knife, you shouldn't put it through the dishwasher.

At this price, I don't mind keeping a couple of these around. The older one gets abuse (opening those boxes and cutting into avocados, during which I often hit the pits) while the newer one gets reserved for more traditional tasks.

Great All Purpose Knife July 31, 2001
9 out of 10 found this review helpful

The Classic series knife was the third individual henckles knife that we purchased. Previously we had purchased knives from the Eversharp line and were not happy with them at all. This knive was a pleasant surprise and led us to experiment with more of the Henckles line until we ended up purchasing a Pro S series set that we absolutely love. Although the Classics are not as sharp as the S series knives they are much more affordable and are very good strong and sturdy knives. The 6 inch utility knife is a great all purpose knive that I find myself reaching for more than any of the others.
