Not impressed with the flimsy construction. This is not a typical Henkels product.

I bought these as an addition to the set I bought years ago.. These work well with all the knives in the lovely block set. They have the same balanced grip and have proven to be the sharpest, and are very easy to handle carefully when slicing. Our block set has held up well for several years
Excellent knives love you can register them too and find out how to sharpen them. Super nice handles I have shaky hands these stay firmly in my grip. Larger than regular steak knives too in my opinion for home use really think they look very professional too. I will be buying more.
Not the same quality as used to be. My wife and I got a set of these knives when we married 20 years ago. When the handle broke on one one I ordered a replacement and man have the standards dropped. The blade is thin and flimsy…it’s ok but not the same quality.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
