Pros: Natural feeling in the hand. Maintains sharp edge; less drag. Cons: Very expensive knives.
Unless you're the Chef de Cuisine in a fancy restaurant, most likely you'll be doing years of prep work. My philosophy, when it comes to knives, is always to buy the most knife I can afford. Unlike Chicago Cutlery®, and a few no-name brands I...
Pros: Does what's it's supposed to do adequately Cons: Rust. Needs to be babied. Too expensive for the quality.
Let me first get something off my chest. I am truly embarrassed to have paid this much money for this set of knives. Suckered in by a "deal" on one of Amazon's Friday sales, I thought "something this expensive must be amazing, right?". And for I ...
Pros: light weight, thin blade, ergonimic handle, easy sharpening Cons: price, not as good as Wustof
While the Henckles knives may not be as precision crafted as the Wustof-Trident, the prices of the Henckles drop more often and are on sale more often. For even the most distinguished cook, the Henckles knife set is more than good enough. The steel is ...
Pros: Lasts a Lifetime, Great Balance, Aestetically Pleasing Cons: A little pricey but well worth it!
1. First off, a little background on how I came to know Henckels.
My uncles are chefs and they have nothing but praise for this brand of knives. My mom has had the same chef-knife (I believe it was either the 4 star or its predecessor) for 15...
Pros: Knives are balanced, ergonomically comfortable and able to hold a sharp edge. Cons: that little red sticker that is almost impossible to get off!
Hello!
Well, those who have read my past reviews know that when I was a student, I worked in a restaurant for some years. Also, in my years of residency, one of my joys was cooking! Well, what kind of a chef would I be if I did not have...
Pros: Lasting quality, versatility, room for two more in the block Cons: Curved handles make knives lay unpredictably on countertop
CHOOSE YOUR EXCALIBUR
Once you decide that you need fine equipment in your kitchen, one of your first considerations should be a high-quality set of knives. Whenever you prepare a meal or snack, a knife is always used. In preparation, what...
Pros: great handles, superb blade that keeps a great edge, looks wonderful Cons: a bit pricey in comparson to the other Henckels
I used to say that enjoyed cooking. I used to cook good meals. I only did so occasionally though. The prep time for a good meal was time that I didn't enjoy, so I only cooked well when I was cooking for other people.
Pros: Beattiful ever sharp cutlery a joy to use Cons: Preferred the cheaper model
Last Christmas I performed fairly exhaustive research into the finest cutlery available. Everything from the metallurgy to the construction pointed toward Henckel's. I have always had specific tasks in mind and tend to shy away from sets because there...
Pros: High quality, ergonomically designed Cons: Expensive
I sold Cutco a few years ago while I was in college. Cutco knives are very good knives that are designed to be ergonomic, not need sharpening and come with a great guarantee. However, I have to admit that I like the Henckels Five Star knives we bought...
If you are serious about buying Henckels, there are 4 top of the line Henckels out there, the 4 Star, the 5 Star, the Pro-S, and the Twin Star. I will only deal with the 5 Star vs. the Pro S here because they are similar in quality and identical in...
I looked carefully at the wustof classic and grand prix, the Henckels four star, professional s and the five star. Essentially, the blade quality is a draw- All are top-flight. However, the handles on the five star put them above the other choices....
I received this set as a wedding gift. It has been a great gift. I have had many different types of knifes, but none of them have worked as good as this brand. I have always had trouble cutting or they get dull after awhile. These have a life time...
Pros: Good edge, weight and balance Cons: most expensive
I am a professional chef with over twenty years experience. The Henckels
knives are absolutely the best that you can use. That is their top of the
line products. They have several levels of quality, and you are best to
use their 5 star...
