I would never repurchase these!
It has only been a few months and almost every knife in this collection has rust on it. This is my second set and this has never happened before.

Beautiful set, sharp knives!
I bought this a little over a month ago and I really am enjoying these knifes. It's block is sleek and fits in well with my kitchen colors. The knives are sharp and make cutting a joy. They seem high quality and I am hand washing after each use just to help them stay pristine.

I finally got them!!!
I've finally got a Henckels set that i have wanted for a long time! I had always read about the nice workmanship, quality and history behind them. I am very satisfied with them and i wish I would have gotten them sooner. I am very happy with them.

Sleek and modern
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set is a fantastic choice for a modern kitchen staple. The grip is great, weight is quality, and a sleek addition to the kitchen.
