I have been a chef for the last 40 years and have always used Henckels from the beginning. I love these knives. This new set I bought were cheaper so I guess you get what you pay for. But theses knives are not as sturdy, less heft, and put together with less attention. I guess I should have just bought them individually.

I’ve owned my knives for about 3 years and I love them. The only thing I hate is I’ve lost 2 of the steak knives and there doesn’t seem to be an exact match for a replacement.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this knifes and after 3 months of regular use in a home kitchen the cables are faded, and the blading are rusting. I asked for replacement, but it was denied saying the detergent I am using is not adequate. I have several knives set, most of them chipper than this one, never have faced issues like this. The quality is bad, and the company does not cover the warranty, be advised.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
