The new sharpening blocks are the best idea - no guess work if the knives are sharpened correctly. Pull it out & voila! Ready to use and no fuss. I especially like the simplicity of this block - just want you want & need and not all the rest. Slots for steak knives, if one wants. These are top-quality knives and block for a great price!
This set has it all - German special formula steel which has been ice hardened for durability, forged blades and super sharp. These knives are a little bit lighter weight which I like, some knives can be really heavy. The self sharpening block makes life a little bit easier. They also have a lifetime warranty. You can't beat the value of this set.
Superior sharpness of their ice-hardened blades, precision-forged from a single piece of high carbon special formula stainless steel, these top-selling knives offer exceptional value. Add a santoku and it is perfect!!! It's self-sharpening slots boast build-in honing mechanisms that automatically sharpen to the perfect angle each time a knife is removed or replaced. This technology ensures your most essential knives are always sharp, for effortless, quick, and precise prep work.
I was surprised when I saw this block set. Most of the self sharpening blocks on the market do not contain quality knives and the sharpening mechanism wears down quickly. Not so with this set. The knives are premium German stainless steel, have a great weight balance and comfortable handle. The fact that they can be sharpened when needed is just another added feature. I also like that there are empty slots for knives to be added later.
Nice set, love the dark wood with the stainless steel top! Just make sure you rise the knives every time you want to use them so you don't consume any metal shavings.
I got this block set for my grandparents and they love it! They love how amazing the knives are, how well constructed the steel is and how lightweight the knives are, especially my grandmother who can’t hold things that are heavy. The fact they don’t have to worry about sharpening the knives because of the self-sharpening block is so helpful!
Very good quality and that the block can add additional knives. Compared it to a friends that she has made by another brand and mine is so much better in every way.
I've had my four star knives for several years and now, I have the self sharpening block set. I get to add my own steak knives which also happen to be Henckels. So happy to have this new comer to the block!
