I already knew that Henckels' knives are premium quality, so I bought this set! As always, this brand has excellent blades which cut through a steak as butter! The block is nice and heavy - it stays put and looks profession on the counter. The price was perfect - best value online, and with free shipping!
If you purchase this set, you will never need to sharpen knives again! Who has time to sharpen knives, anyway?!? I highly recommend this particular Henckels knife set - you won't be disappointed!
