I just got this yesterday and I can tell you it is fantastic. It is really beautiful and looks great on the counter. The knifes are very nicely made and balanced. My wife loves it. I like how you can sharpen the blade if needed right there in the block.

This 13 piece self sharpening knife block is amazing. It comes with every piece you'd need to cook any meal. I love the self sharpening element so they stay sharp for life! The knives and block are great quality and the color of the block matches with any kitchen decor!

I needed a set that didn't look dated or cheap. I found that and much more in this set besides being german stainless steel. The 13-pc set is an exceptional value for the amount of items included. The knives are well made. They are balanced, strong, and very sharp. The self-sharpening block is a added bonus to this set. It will help to prolong the life of each knife. The fact that the block wood look and is labeled to ensure that each knife is stored and subsequently sharpened according to their individual specifications. I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase.

Educational and sharp! Great knife set! This knife set is aesthetically pleasing and fits right in on the kitchen counter. The knife’s have great weight and came sharp. Love that the block has the names of each knife and it is self sharpening. Can’t wait to see how they last over time.

It is a very wide variety of knives. The set includes a scissor in addition to all other kinds for steaks and chief knives. I love the idea of it sharpens itself so we don’t have to worry about sharpening at all. Once you put the knife in the stand it will get sharpen as new. I’m very satisfied and worth the price.

Finally, the perfect knife set to replace my 10-year-old knife set. This knife set is very sleek And it works great. No more dull knifes that will cause cuts. The knifes are very sharp and have good grip. It has a built-in knife, sharpener that wonderfully! The wooden knife block adds a nice little pop in color. I would definitely recommend this set anytime.

Beautiful, sharp knives! The self-sharpening block is necessary for me because I cannot stand the sound of sharpening knives. I am very happy with the price and quality of this knife set. The only thing I don't like about it is the depth of the knife block - I had my previous set in my cupboard so it didn't get dusty and gross, but this set doesn't fit so I have to keep them on my counter and get a cover for it. If a dust cover would've been included I would be ecstatic!

these are very sharp knives. I formerly have had Pampered Chef cutlery, and these are very comparable. I like how they cut through food easily. The shears are also nice and sharp. The sharpening feature of the knife block is a nice addition, so you don't need an additional knife sharpener.

Prior to grabbing this set, my family had another set of Henckels knives that were very similar. We wanted to grab another set of Henchels again due to the quality of the knives. Firstly, they last almost forever and are very tough. The blades themselves are high quality. The steak knife blades are serrated. The set comes with a very nice looking block. The knives themselves have stainless steel handles and are very comfortable to hold. Would recommend.

Henkel self- sharpening block. This is a 13 piece set, 11 knives, kitchen shears and a block that will keep 3 of the knives sharp. Those 3 are typically the ones i would use everyday. I've had henckel knives in the kitchen for well over 30 years and this is the first with a self sharpening knife block. So excited! The knives have a nice balance and the crisscross pattern in the handles have a good feel and grip. I like to do the tomato test on knives every now and then to be sure they are sharp and they don't disappoint. Check out the video. The 6 steak knives are half serrated which i didn't know if i would like but i just used them to pick crabs and they worked well. Cleanup is easy as well with this all stainless steel set because there is no wood and tossing them in the dishwasher is safe. I always would hand wash sets with wooden handles. When in the block they also look great on counter with each knife labeled on the stainless steel block topper so nomore grabbing the wrong knife by accident. I hope you enjoy this set as much as i do. My wife enjoys using them as well. And you know a sharp knife makes kitchen cutting easy and safe. Dull knives need more down pressure which can typically leed to more accidental cuts.
