Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-07-16 Summary: Wonderful steel leaves my blades ready for action ... How much can you say about a piece like this? It's a nice size (shorter than most I've used). It's easy to handle, and my knives (Victorinox Cutlery 6-Inch Chef's Knife, Black Fibrox Handle and Victorinox Fibrox 8-Inch Chef's Knife ) are ready to cut after a quick honing. For sharpening, I love this tool (and so does Cook's Illustrated): AccuSharp 001 Knife Sharpener ...more

[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-09-14 Summary: Great Sharpening Steel ... I recently took a cooking class where I learned how to use a sharpening steel and how effective they are in putting a good edge on you knives. (a few light strokes on each side of the blade at a 20 degree angle is all it takes) My wife can't believe how sharp our knives are now. This was an excellent steel with a molded handle. While not a pretty as the "matched set" this is very functional and our knives don't even notice the molded handle either. I ended up buying another steel for my daughter and now she has sharp ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-07-17 Summary: Henckel steel ... Have used it over a year. Like the hanging loop. I sharpen with a Tormec wet grinder, then do a final touch-up with this steel. This steel has micro grooves, so a light touch works best. My old Remington 10" carving knife maintains a razor edge with this steel between uses. A final pass with the Global diamond rod ensures a very fine edge. And the price is right. ...more
Editorial Reviews — [1] ... Product Description | Dull blades not only give poor results and require more effort on the part of the chef, they are also far more likely to be the cause of injury than sharp blades. A sharp blade is not nearly as likelly to slide off the side of a vegetable and into your fingers. Keep those edges honed!...more
[2] ... Review | A classic tool that helps get the best from knives, this sharpening steel is a solidly crafted addition to any knife block. Between professional sharpenings, tiny metal fibers bend down on a blade, dulling the surface. The purpose of the sharpening steel is to straighten up those fibers, maintaining the sharpest edge possible for daily use. This model is lightweight, with a flared handle and a tapered edge. It's extremely comfortable and well balanced for experienced users, but beginners may have an...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-05-10 Summary: Excellent steak knives! ... I bought this set of Henckel knives to compliment a set we purchased several years ago. The original set has a butcher, paring, boning, and steak (4) knives along with a sharpener. We have enjoyed this set so much that we wanted 4 more of the steak knives and estatic when we found them at Amazon. They are the best steak knives for the money and will compliment anyones cutlery. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-03-04 Summary: New Knives ... After 20 years we replaced our knives with these new Henckel's. They are wonderful. Smooth edges instead of serrated and like much better. Great quality for the price. ...more
[4] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-01-27 Summary: Truth in Labeling ... These appear to be excellent knives and I would probably buy them again, but they are not German cultery, as stated in the specifications. The knives delivered to me were made in Spain. There is nothing wrong with that, but I dinged them one star for providing incorrect basic information. ...more

[2] ... Review | From one of Henckels' moderately priced cutlery lines, these four steak knives will divide any rib-eye, chop, or roast into bite-size pieces. The thin, curved blades are perfect for precise cutting, though their fine serrations tend to tear meat fibers rather than slice neatly through them. Stamped from high-carbon stainless steel, these knives are lighter in weight than forged knives and don't have bolsters, which might not be essential when confronting a thick prime rib. The synthetic handles feature...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-04-25 Summary: Great quality for a good price ... I'm not sure why some reviewers are calling these knives "expensive" since $80 is pretty cheap in comparison to some of the higher end Henckels and Wustoff products. Anyway, I received these knives as a Christmas gift and have been VERY happy with them. They're super sharp, and in my opinion cut quite well. I noticed some complaints of "shredding" the meat, but I haven't had that problem. Oh ... and for the person who was mad the knives rusted in the dishwasher ... you have nobody to blame but yourself for putting ...more

[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-04-09 Summary: A good knife for the price, albeit serrated. ... I have found these knives do the job they're designed for very well. These are serrated knives and have kept a sharp edge for the five years I have owned them. ...more
[4] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-01-25 Summary: Not a bad set of knives -quality could be a little better ... I bought these knives for my wife for Christmas. We bought them to complement our regular set of Professional S knives. About the knives: The look of these was dead on with our current set. The finish of the handles could have been better. They feel a bit light and the handles just aren't as smooth as the Professional S set. That being said -they weren't nearly as expensive. I posted pictures of the end serrations on the blade. Not sure how this will effect sharpening them in the future. About the block: It was lighter ...more

[2] ... Review | Removed from their slots in this set's rubber-footed wood storage block, these eight knives slice any steak, chop, or roast into bite-size pieces. Gourmet is one of Henckels's inexpensive cutlery lines. These knives don't have bolsters, but that feature isn't vital when confronting a rib eye. The high-carbon, stainless-steel 4-1/2-inch blades are stamped, not forged, and because they are serrated on the upper halves, they tend to tear meat fibers rather than slice precisely through them the way straight-edge...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-06-08 Summary: A Joy to Read. Especially for the Knife Ethusiasts ... This book is a great read. It is educational and humourous. I laughed more than a few times reading it. Who would have thought a kitchen cutlery book can be so funny. Unlike most kitchen knife books which focus on cutting techniques, this book discusses various topics, ranging from "How to choose a knife" to "How to cut with a knife" to "How to maintain and sharpen a knife". It takes on a more comprehensive approach. I will be honest. If all you care for is the knife cutting technique, then there are better books out ...more

[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-03-19 Summary: Essential if you own good knives ... This is a great book and I am reading it for a second time, despite the protests from my wife that I have become obsessed. I bought the book because I had just invested in a block of very good knives and I wanted to look after them. Unfortunately I bought the book a bit late, as it would have been good to have read it before purchasing the knives. But it has been a real help for the chopping and the honing/sharpening techniques. I would have ruined my knives using the supplied steel, and have since bought the recommended ...more

Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Why are most of us so woefully uninformed about our kitchen knives?

For a species that has been using knives for nearly as long as we have been walking upright, that's a serious problem. An Edge in the Kitchen is the solution, an intelligent and delightful debunking of the mysteries of kitchen knives once and for all. If...more

[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2000-09-05 Summary: Excellent Starter Set ... This makes a very good starter set for me because I only needed to replace the 3 knives that I use everyday in my cutlery set. I am not a great chef but using these knives seemed to make me feel close to being one because of it's sharpness and smoothness. I believe in the saying "You get what you pay for". At first I thought these were a bit expensive for my simple lifestyle but once I've started using them, I felt good about cooking.

[2] ... Review | A great gift, this set provides a cook with enough versatility to accomplish most kitchen jobs. The chef's knife, with its broad blade and curved cutting edge for rocking through a chopping task, chops, minces, slices, and dices. The utility knife slices, cuts, and chops; its 6-inch blade is large enough to trim a chuck roast or subdue a head of lettuce. The paring knife cuts, peels, and cleans fruits and vegetables.
