Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of J.A. Henckels International Everedge 13-Piece Knife Set with Bonus Cheese Knife
Customer Review: Can't believe this is made by Henckel!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I have several Henckel knives, from both the Pro S and 4 Star Series. Henckel knives are precisioned to balance even in your hand giving you better controll while cutting, plus they are made out of the highest quality stainless steel with very strong, durable handle, thus the high prices you have to pay for them. With those selling points in mind, note the price for this entire 13 piece set including the butcher block display. At $29.99 the International Eversharp Henckels Series set is priced less than any single Henckel knife in any of the other lines. And as the saying goes "You get what you pay for!" meaning, you ain't getting much in the way of knives with these. They look real good sitting on the kitchen counter but that's where the Henckels standards stop. They are nothing at all like the original Henckels so if that's what your looking for you will be highly disappointed. These are light weight and remind me of the knives you use to get free at the supermarket everyweek you spend so much on groceries, if anyone can remember those times. These would be a good gift for that wedding shower invitation where you don't really know the bride but a distant friend of groom. They would make you purchase the bride a very expense gift, just be sure you never see her after the wedding. Need less to say I didn't care for these at all.
Customer Review: Cheap Quality
Summary: 2 Stars
Sure the name says Henckels, but the quality does not. The knives are serrated and they do a terrible job of cutting things like chicken. You get what you pay for I suppose.Customer Review: Complete garbage

Do not buy this set. Henckels should be embarrassed for having their name associated with this garbage. I've had this set for about a month and it is anything BUT stainless. You would think the knives are made of iron, they rust so much. Complete waste of money. Knives can't be sharpened; they're all serrated. This is especially bad for the chef's knife. These are not quality made knives made in Germany that Henckels is famous for. These are cheap, and made-in-China.
Customer Review: DO NOT BUY THESE KNIVES - EXTREMELY CHEAP
Summary: 1 Stars
These knives are of a very cheap quality. You are better of buying one nice chefs knife and one pairing knife. Try Wüsthof, Global or Shun, you will not regret. A good well taken care of knife will last you a lifetime. Don't waste your money on a set with the quality you'd expect to find at a 99 cent store. The Wüsthof Classic 2-Piece Knife Starter Set can be found around $99. A little more money but a much better bang for your buck in the end.Customer Review: Decent Set
Summary: 3 Stars
Not a high end quality knife set at all, and the knife block is not fitted to the knife set very well. On the other hand the set is sharp, and well rounded variety of knifes.
