HENCKELS Forged Premio 7-Piece Block Knife Set

Was in search of a simple knife set to replace some old knives that were cheap and crusty - this is it! I imagine this set will last a while and I won’t have to buy another set for a while. It really pays to get something of nicer quality that will last you instead of replacing cheap sets every few years. So happy with this purchase. The knifes are sharp, easy to use and not too many that it’s hard to decide what to use for which cooking task. From someone who doesn’t do much fancy cooking, these knifes make me feel fancy. Highly recommend!

Recomendables! Buena calidad, llegaron pronto, bonitos, filosos, ligeros.. lo único que no me gusta es que las ranuras están muy juntas a la que corresponde a las tijeras y los cuchillos parecen muy “encimados “

These forged premio knives are so balanced it makes fluting a mushroom, deboning and cutting chickens, carving and cutting bread a breeze. They are high quality and worth of the henckel name. I have zwilling knives and wusthof knives and these are comparable to those. I did notice that they dull a bit sooner than my zwilling and wusthof knives but if you use the honing steel that comes with the set at the end or begining of cutting (which I do anyways also with my Wusthof and Zwilling knives) it cuts much sharper and more precisely. Good for cutting tomatoes and make paring work super easy and these are easyto hold too. I use the santoku in my culinary class and with my chef's knife I can go ""all Nanta!" on my cutting cuttinf. Cuttung with two knives ar once. :)

I had been wanting new knives for a few years but hadn’t bought any because I bought bad knives a couple times. When Consumer Reports reviewed the French knife from this set, I bought the 17 piece set and an additional paring knife. I love them all! The steak knives are sharp too! I plan to buy the remaining knives that didn’t come with this set and, I want another 8” French and another paring knife. We have 3 cooks in our house. 🤩 I’ll probably buy 6-12 more steak knives. I usually have silverware for 24 people. We have a big family. There is one thing I don’t like. The steak knives handle is small/thin. They’re a bit uncomfortable. After knowing that I still gave away my old knives. It’s not a deal breaker for us, just an honest review. The pictures with my hand are with a steak knife. My mom & sister hands aren’t as fat. They agree that the steak knives handles are uncomfortable.

Just got these knives and already like them! They are heavy, shiny, and sharp. The knives look exactly as depicted in the images. Sad that the images in the listing don't include an individual picture of the Santoku knife, as it is a great, beautiful knife included in the set as well!
