J.A. Henckels Twin Gourmet High-Carbon Stainless Steel Steak Knives, Set of 4

Product Description

Trying to cut through meat with a dinner knife is a recipe for disaster, as in Caribbean Jerk Pork Chops meet wool blend trousers. Provide each place setting with its own steak knife for a much more enjoyable dining experience.

Amazon.com 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 classic three-rivet styling with full tangs for strength. The knives are dishwasher-safe and they carry a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Nice steak knives but a Questionable blade design...
Got this knives set during an Friday Sale. A real good deal for Swilling JA Henckels product line. The blade is similar to the Henckels 4/5 star and Pro-s blades except this is stamped instead of forged. Although this is a stamped knife, the blade is actually thicker than the blade of a comparatively higher line of 4/5 star, so Forged or Stamped blade makes no difference for this steak knife. These steak knives make cutting steak easy and "classy". Your friends would think these knives are very expensive, for which is the contrary. If this set got any cheaper like the previous sale, just get a few sets at once, you won't regret it. Just beware not to sharpen it on a steel or manual sharpener, it has to be prifessionally sharpened. The only puzzling thing is in the weird design of the blade where there is a little offset curve blade near where the blade and its handle meet; what is this offset for, it can actually cuts a finger if someone got a big hand. Just be careful in handling any type of knives.

The Best Steak Knives Ever!
I received a set of these steak knives as a gift for my wedding shower last year. They are absolutely astounding - they cut the toughest meat, and make slicing tomatoes a dream. They do not bend or warp like other steak knives I have used. I just purchased a second set, because my husband loves them so much the first set is constantly in the dishwasher!!!

The best!
The best set of steak kinves we have ever owned. Exceptionally well made, good feel, and keeps a sharp edge for years. Highly recommended. I'm about to buy more of them as my wife uses them for everything.
