Henckels Diamond 13-Piece Self-Sharpening Knife Block Set

Love this knife set! The knives are full tang, very very sharp with a nice weight to them. They are very easy to use and make it so nice to slice up almost anything. Had a mismatched set of Henckels that I had been using for years and finally decided to splurge on a complete set. I am really glad I did.

This is a great knife set! Have had these for a month now and they are a good weight and super sharp. They cut through raw meat and veggies easy. Not quite like butter but for the price range is great! . The only thing I can complain about is you have to dry them immediately after washing. They rust pretty easy, so try to dry as soon as possible!

Great knives, very sharp and sturdy set. It fits my larger hands and my wife's smaller hands with an excellent grip. Our only gripe is that we have to carefully maintain the knifes dry or they will develop rusty spots that ruins the experience and expectations of a high quality kitchen knifes set. Nice looking, the whole set looks elegant and well made. We get compliments from friends and family.

Great Knives at a great price! These were the best price for quality knives I could find anywhere. I'm hoping these are the last knives I have to buy so I didn't mind spending a little more than I normally would and so far I haven't been disappointed at all, they're super sharp!

Great quality, firm handles, and the self sharpening feature is a plus.

Appear to be near commercial grade knives. Maybe takes up a little too much room for kitchens in average home. We haven't used them enough yet to tell if they will keep their edge. Seem to be heavy duty. Don't know if a master chef would use them, but certainly a corner diner in mid-sized city would find them useful. Price was good too. This was a present for my wife, she asked for a new knife set. The funny part is our 17 y/o granddaughter and I do most of the cooking right now. Maybe my wife plans to get back in the kitchen in 2024. She has some really cool recipes.

After one year using the Henckels Diamond knife set: Great looks, get lots of compliments. But in reality after they are in the dishwasher get ready for rust stains, rusted handle ends. The parring knife tip broke off while carving meat around bones. Seems like a soft steel that as you cut a ten pound NY strip into half inch steaks the chefs knife starts to loose it's sharpness halfway, stop and resharpen it or double your efforts for the other half. Would I buy them again… Nope. I would invest a little more and get a better brand, if they claim German steel why the blades are stamped Made in China? German steel, should be manufactured in Germany, Japanese knives should be made in Japan Not China. I'm sick and tired of the bait and switch game. We replaced a ten years old cheaper Martha Steward knife set and it never rusted, never stained, tips never broke off. My sister in law continues to use the Martha's Stewards knives and she's quite happy with my old knife set and I'm regretting that decision.

Not sharp at all. The steak knives will not cut steak and the chef's knife won't cut a tomato.

We bought these "german sainless steel" knives for Christmas because I've been wanting a new set and they are horrible. They developed rust spots, after only washing/drying by hand, within just a couple of uses. These cannot be stainless and are very disappointing. I see by reviews I'm not the only one who has experienced the problem. Unfortunately, I didn't anticipate this and discarded the box and my old knives away before trying them out, so I am afraid I'm stuck with them. Do not buy!!

Knives were dull i paid to much for crappy knives.
