[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very good knives. I’ve own some in the past and they cut well and last quite a long time. Handle is great overall nothing to complain.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I hadn’t purchased a new set of stash knives in many years, so I wanted to invest in a good set, but ended up with a GREAT set-couldn’t be happier!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These knives cut through meat easily. No sawing ir struggling. The only issue is that the handles are a bit on the short side for our large hands, but not to the point of being unable to use the knives. Overall a really nice set of knives that will do exactly what we need them to do.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The blades are super sharp and don’t dull easily. We’ve been searching for a replacement steak knife set for a while and finally found it!
Black plastic handles are dull before even 1st use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was all excited about receiving my new Henckels steak knives to go along with my Pro ‘S’ knives after switching my knife blocks from natural wood to black blocks. I expected the steak knives to be of the same quality as my kitchen knives but I discovered that not to be the case. I hand washed each of the knives with Dawn dish detergent and a soft kitchen sponge before getting ready to put them in the block. As I was towel drying them, I was seeing cloudy areas on all 12 of the new steak knives. It appears the plastic handles don’t hold up to washing and discolored and faded. I’m very disappointed in the quality of this item. Definitely not consistent with my other Henckels products that I’ve purchased over the years. What I find even more troublesome is that the box the knives came in have printed on the bottom that these knives are dishwasher safe. I’ve never been taught to put a ‘good’ knife in the dishwasher. You’re supposed to hand wash them and dry them right away before storing them in the block.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We do agree you should hand wash to prolong the lifespan of your cutlery! While these are a great choice for steak knives, they are from our Henckels International base brand, not the premium Zwilling/Twin brand you have. The Professional "S" steak knives that match your set are available here: https://www.zwilling.com/us/zwilling-professional-s-4-pc-steak-knife-set-39188-000/39188-000-0.html
