[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had these for a month now. They're sharp but I've noticed they like to rust between the handle scales and the supposed "stainless steel" between the scales. My mother had a set of J.A. Henckel knives that never had this issue. Of course they were 30 years old and were probably still made in Germany and not in a place with lower QC standards.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Knifes are super sharp, granted I just got them so durability hasn't been tested yet. They weigh about 1-2oz more per knife compared to my 10 year old Made in China set of JA Henkels Everedge Plus knives that still are intact. My complaint so far is the block. They easily could've cut 5" off the back perpendicular to the bottom so it sat back farther on the counter, or atleast gave the option. I almost wondered if they just didn't finish my block correctly at first due to the stain not being applied that great in the front and you can see white in-between the grain. But comparing to pictures the weirdly long block that needs to be focal point of an island I don't have is correct.
Excellent high quality knives that are able to sharpen themselves. Haven’t had them for long but they have held up great so far. Looking forward for years to come.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these knives, they are beautiful to look at, are quality made, feel good in your hand while using them. I have always wanted a set of Henckels knives and I'm glad I was finally able to purchase these wonderful knives.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not only are your knives beautiful, they are perfect for all my needs. The fact that the knives are sort of self-sharpening is a real bonus.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased this block set and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. The set not only looks sleek on my kitchen counter, but the self-sharpening feature is incredibly convenient. I no longer have to worry about dull knives because every time I use one, it gets sharpened as it's returned to the block. The knives themselves are of great quality and have a good weight to them. I highly recommend this set to anyone looking for high-quality, low-maintenance knives.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These knives are extremely sharp and well balanced. This set has the sharpening block so I will see how that works. I’ve had several of the knives in the past and love them.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the full tang design. Bought though a service award from work, so I didn’t get to handle before purchasing. Blades are a little thinner than expected. So far no complaints.
