Great knives for me (college student) May 23, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I can't give a pro's take on the knives but I can def give a college student's view.

The knives are lightweight and they've cut everything I've needed to cut so far. I haven't sharpened them since I've had them and they still cut my veggies and other random foods. If you're a professional chef then you're probably not looking at these knives anyways.

If you're a college student with a budget then these are the best looking knives for sure. I have a condo that's decked out in modern motif and they fit right in. I love finding products that are sleek yet functional. There's no shame in wanting functionality AND style.

I hand wash them and that's just my preference so I couldn't say if they're dishwasher safe or not. I've had no rust or water spots on them.
The blades are sharp enough to cut your household groceries.

The only thing that bugs me is that there are 4 open holes in the block. I haven't the slighest idea what knives are missing. The middle block is square so I'm thinking that's for a pair of scissors. I emailed Henckels and asked so if I get a response I'll let people know what knives will fit what slots.

That's another problem I had. I couldn't figure out which knife went to which slot. The slots aren't contoured so some of the knifes are loose in their slot.

Again, this isn't a pro's view...it's just an average consumers.

Very nice May 1, 2008
I am very pleased with these knives. I love to cook at home but found using inferior knives to be a huge problem. These are lightweight, but still sturdy. I did have to be more careful since the knives are so sharp. They also come with instructions on how to properly sharpen your knives, which I found very helpful. I plan on keeping these for a long time.

Missing knife sharpner April 13, 2008

I got this as a gift for my mom and the knife sharpener was missing, which was very disappointing. Nice knives, but we were never able to get the missing piece.

Great Quality February 16, 2008
I purchased the J.A. Henckels International Fine Edge Synergy 8 -Piece Steak Knife Set at Marshalls a few years ago. I was a little skeptical because of the weight but years later they still look, feel, and cut like they're brand new.

Good Price, Low Quality February 8, 2008
3 out of 7 found this review helpful

This is certainly a "beginner" set. The set is rather light weight and the blades are thin and flexible. The rubberized feel of the handle combined with the brushed aluminum makes it look modern, but takes away from the classic feel Henckels has built its name on. I would encourage you to spend a little more and get a heavier weight and quality set.
