Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of J.A. Henckels International Everedge 13-Piece Knife Set with Bonus Cheese Knife
Customer Review: Great set for a new kitchen
Summary: 5 Stars
Several years ago, I purchased this set as a housewarming gift for a friend, who raved about them so much that I ended up buying a set for myself. As an impoverished college student at the time, my selection really came down to the price being right. Fortunately, the knives were right, too. I still use these knives every day, 4.5 years later, often mistreating them, with no ill effects. Now that I'm ready to move on to one of the premiere lines, I will hand these down to a younger sibling, as they still have numerous years of use left in them.Customer Review: Kitchanman

I took a look at my knives the other day and tried to remember which of the women I've been with left me with those. So I decided to buy my own set of knives to go with my completely rearranged kitchen. I chose these based on reviews I read here and have not been disappointed. The knife selection is good and the set is worth the price just for the steak knives alone. The only thing I have against the set is the chef's knife it needs to be offset to be effective in chopping and dicing vegetables. I will be replacing that with a better one soon.Customer Review: Henckels low end knives

WOW, I have purchased Henckel knives by themselves and got great knives with sturdy handles that will last forever. Like others, I bought this set thinking it would be somewhat close to the ones I have, but NO! The handles are disappointing, but I had read they were poly. No rivits to hold the blades in the handle, SO I hope the handle and blade stay together. I will go back to buying these knives seperately as before and will make sure I get the GOOD ONES this time. But, as they say, "you get what you paid for and at 40.00 there pretty good.Customer Review: Outstanding for the price

13 knives for 40 bucks,WOW! I've been using mine for 6 months and find them dependable and easy to care for. No, they are not professional quality, but come on kids, they cost 40 dollars. I like the plastic handles, they look good and if they sit in a sink of water too long, or aren't cared for like they should be, it's o.k. 'cause they don't turn into trash. I bake my own bread and the bread knife is outstanding because of the eversharp edge. Well worth every cent if you need an inexpensive set of knives that will tolerate moderate abuse.Customer Review: Poor quality - low price
Summary: 2 Stars
These knives are not your typical Henkels knives. They combine a fairly decent cutting edge with a terrible quality handle. The plastic handles have not been finished well, and there are obvious marks of the plastic molding all over it. The bonus cheese knife is a nice extra, if only it fit in the knife block... A real oversight.
These knives go on sale quite a lot, when you can get them for $27 they are a good way of getting a set of Henkels knives on your kitchen counter. Anything over this price is simply a waste of money.
