HENCKELS Forged Accent Razor-Sharp 2-pc Santoku Knife Set, White Handle, German Engineered Informed by 100+ Years of Mastery

Excellent!! Very sharp, comfortable to hold. Well balanced. Blade is the perfect size - not too long. My "go-to" knife and I highly recommend it.

Nicely sized knives, that are somewhat lighter than a lot of other Henckels. Tthese are forged and not stamped steel, the blades are thinner than many of their other knives. The larger 7 inch has a bolsterat the end of the blade and is good for chopping vegetables, mincing and general cutting. The smaller 5 inch knife is similar to many utility knives found in sets. It is good for working with smaller foods, like fruit. These arrived sharp out of the box, but did a little touch up on them using a Henckels pull stone sharpener and set the edge with a steel. Now they're close to razor sharp. Grip is nice with the larger knife having a larger handle. Both are comfortable to hold for someone with medium sized hands. Bought these on sale around Christmas and think we got good value for knives made of German steel. The white handles are a nice contrast to our other knives that have wood, black and colored plastic handles. Have had matching sets of less expensive knives previously, which have been handed down. Haven't run them through the dishwasher. Not something I would do with a kitchen knife, so will leave commenting on that to someone else. We hand wash after use, towel dry and put away in a knife rack. The blades look like they have a lot of chromium in them, so don't think rust will be a problem. Will update this review if that happens, or any other problems. Just think that's unlikely. These are easy to use for most everyday kitchen tasks, but wouldn't try to chop through a bone with them, use the tip as a screwdriver, etc..... Use a meat cleaver or another tool depending on the job you're looking at. Have never been disappointed with the brand - great Henckels quality at an affordable price point. Personal opinion is that Henckels/Zwilling knives hold their edge a little better and longer than Wusthof but that's a minor difference. Do love our Wusthof chef's knife. That knife, a Zwilling three inch pariing, and a 4 inch serrated Victorinox utility are our go to knives in the kitchen. Hope these pearl handled Santokus will get a lot of use as well.

Para mim, a Zwilling está no topo, em se tratando de facas. Tenho outras, que comprei na Alemanha, e são tão boas quanto. Eu acho que são um pouco caras, mas a qualidade compensa.

Hi, trying to find a knife that will do everything that the chef knife does but for smaller everyday tasks. Truly in love with the quality of this brand and the size of knife. Highly recommended. Plus the delivery only took a couple days. Great Amazon, with my heart again.

I love this knife! It is the right size for most jobs. Good quality and value for money, stays sharp, nice grip, easy to use. Plus, it looks good.
