From one of Henckels' moderately priced cutlery lines, these eight steak knives divide any rib eye, chop, or roast into bite-size pieces and then store in a handsome wood box. The thin, curved blades are perfect for precise cutting, although their fine serrations tend to tear meat fibers rather than slice neatly through them. Stamped from high-carbon stainless steel, the 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 classic three-rivet styling with full tangs for strength. The storage box is stained a rich auburn. It has brass hinges and snap closures and measures 15-1/4 inches long, 1-3/4 inches high, and 5-5/8 inches wide. The knives are dishwasher-safe and carry a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

| Comment: | The knives are sharp but the serrated edge does tear the meat. Too good to return but not what I expected from a "hand-honed" blade. |

| Comment: | These were given to us as a wedding present over 5 years ago. Ours get used at least weekly. We put them in the dishwasher and they wash up fine. Mine are still nice and sharp after 5 years of use too. At $100 they are a very good value for the price. I looked them up on here for a gift for my mother for their second home. |

| Summary: | Henkels 8-piece steak knives with box |
| Comment: | The saying goes: "You get what you pay for." I needed 8 steak knives yet did not wish to spend $200 or more for only six good quality knives. Therefore I compromised and purchased the J.A. Henckels Twin Gourmet 8-piece steak knives for less than $100 at Amazon. They are light knives, neat looking (slim) without heavy looking handles, so that you can add to everyday table setting. Serves the purpose. Wish they were a bit more substantial. Otherwise, okay for everyday usage. |
