Wow, what an amazing block of knives! They are super sharp and provide an array of cutting abilities. First off, the block is solid and looks great on my countertop. The knives slide in each slot with relative ease. I love the 3” paring knife with point and curved blade. It makes cleaning and cutting up small things so easy. The knife blades are solid and riveted thru the entire handle and they feel well balanced when using. The grip is ergonomic and comfortable in my hands for right or left hand use. I haven’t had a need to try the boning knife yet, but the point and shape will certainly make trimming larger cuts of meat easy. My favorite knife so far is the 7” Santoku knife for slicing and dicing vegetables. The blade design slices clean and items separate perfectly. This set comes with both long and short serrated knives. The small one cleanly slices both bread and tomatoes. The large serrated knife slices thru homemade raisin bread like a champ! Every kitchen deserves and needs a pair of kitchen shears. I only use these for food processing such as snipping up chicken or trimming fat. Wash them in warm soapy water and trim leafy greens and herbs. And last but not least is the beautiful set of six steak knives held in the base section of the knife block. This makes storage of those so convenient. We enjoy grilling steaks and these steak knives look great with our table service and slice even better. Overall this is a beautiful and useful knife set. It would make an awesome gift!

The quality of these knives and the block is top notch. The wood is very nice and easy to wipe off when dusty. The knives are to be hand washed, but we put them in the dishwasher and there are no issues or signs of wear. The set looks very expensive.

I really like this set! I feel like every few years my knife sets go dull even after sharpening them, so I get frustrated and buy new ones. They're all just thrown into a drawer with some missing covers at this point, so it's really not a safe storage method either. I decided to upscale my kitchen a bit and get this nice knife block with a whole new set of knives in it. I really love that it has everything I need and the knives are super sharp! It even has a set of scissors in it too. The block itself is wooden and seems to be very solid and excellent quality. It keeps everything organized rather than just thrown into the drawer, getting more dull and potentially injuring myself as I dig through to find the one I need. It is not heavy but does have nice weight to it, adding to the feel of quality. It really elevates my kitchen and looks really nice and professional. If not a gift for yourself, I feel this would make a beautiful housewarming or wedding gift as well!

This is a great knife block. The block is nice solid wood and looks great. It's pretty easy to figure out what knives go where as well. My favorite part of the set is that it comes with a boning knife and a bread knife! I love that as I do a lot of brisket and both of those knives are used a lot! This is definitely going to be a great addition to my other knife block set

This is a great knife set! Very sharp, they’ve easily sliced through everything I’ve tried. Usually I have trouble finding knives sharp enough to easily cut through the peel of tomatoes but with these - those tomatoes didn’t stand a chance!! Having the scissors is a definite plus for me and a must have when I’m looking for a knife set. While I am used to a built in knife sharpener I am looking forward to learning how to use the honing rod that’s included with this set when the knives need sharpening. I also love that the steak knives are serrated, my previous set didn’t have that and didn’t seem to cut steaks or chops as well as this set does.

High quality set of knives, kitchen shears and steak knives in a beautiful wood knife block. I love the range of knives available plus the great steak knives. Although you really shouldn't put knives in the dishwasher (to protect the blades), I personally often do and will be able to with these since the handles appear that they'll hold up well in the dishwasher. And I really like how sharp the knives are and easy to hold. We have minimal items on our kitchen counters but these definitely earn counter space due to their great utility, nice looks, and range of knives available.

Super disappointed! I have a duo knife set from this brand from tjmaxx for 20 years, no rust, handle is dark shiny black. purchased a new set And this set did not survive 2 months! They were oily when we purchased, threw away the box and fast forward 60 ish days and they are grayish instead of black, some with rust etc. awful!

This is an all-inclusive knife set from a reputable brand that looks nice too. This set is held in a darker brown wood block and the knives have black handles. The set includes everything for most kitchen needs and it's always handy to have a kitchen scissors right in the block with the rest of the knives.

This knife block is really nice and the knives are super shape. It always comes with something to sharpen your knives so they won’t ever be dull. The block isn’t big and bulky, so it will look nice sitting on your counter. Cuts through a steak like your slicing through butter.

I can’t say enough good things about Henckels knives! They feel great in your hand and give you awesome control while you’re cutting. The stainless steel is high quality, and these blades are sharp—like, really sharp! Plus, they look nice in the kitchen. If you’re looking for a reliable and stylish knife set, I definitely recommend these!
