These are very sharp, and compared to my other Henckels knives, seen to stay sharp for a decent amount of time. The handles hold up and are comfortable.
I've always been a fan of Henckels knives and was overjoyed to stumble across these more affordable knives. As someone who loves to cook but can't invest in pricier kitchenware, these were an instant "add-to-cart" for me. These knives possess the quality the Henckels brand is known for and are easy to upkeep without the worry of rust or damage. They're sharp, lightweight, and comfortable to hold for all hand sizes, and I'm so glad they're divoted! Overall 11/10; should be the #1 thing on new chefs' wishlists!!!
I've wanted a set of this style for a while and I am not disappointed. I love that there are two sizes, which is helpful depending on what I'm doing. They're both very sharp and comfortable to hold. There is a good weight to them, so I know they will be durable. I hand wash all of my knives, so I can't say how they will hold up to a dishwasher. If you are looking for a set of knives to use regularly, these are a really great option.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought the two piece Asian Set to replace a knife that we had used for a long time. Excellent balance and length. Blade is thin and very very sharp.Excellent knives.
