Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of J.A. Henckels Premier Series Opus 45-Piece Stainless Steel Flatware Set, Service for 8
Customer Review: Quite disappointing...
Summary: 2 Stars
I was looking for a new flatware set and after looking at different sites on the Internet, I decided on Opus from Henckels. The main reasons were the modern, cool design and the world-class reputation J. A. Henckels has.
Well, let's just say I got the set today (not from Amazon) and it will go back tomorrow. While I loved the design of it (the 2 stars I gave are for that only), I cannot say the same for the quality of workmanship. This set contained at least one knife with a (tiny) rust mark on the blade, two forks with unacceptably rough edges at the end of the handles ("they scratched my skin"-rough), and one knife with a loose blade!
The set is made in China (the country etched ever so discreetly into the handles), and has nothing to do with the famous German Zwilling quality. I suspect J. A. Henckels is out for a quick buck and hopes for people like me who are seduced by the design. If you are looking for good quality and don't want your guests to scratch their hands with your flatware, keep looking. This set is truly not worth the money, not even on sale.
Since I am returning it, I cannot speak to the quality of the blades because I didn't try the knives. But this is flatware I would be embarrassed to have on my table when inviting guests.

Description of J.A. Henckels Premier Series Opus 45-Piece Stainless Steel Flatware Set, Service for 8
From the makers of the world's finest cutlery since 1731 comes the J. A. Henckels International Flatware Collection. The Opus pattern features a very simple, contemporary design, with handles that tilt slightly upward at the end, and featuring a larger, continental size similar to those found in nicer restaurants around the world. All pieces in the collection are made of the highest quality, 18/10 stainless steel. The knives have hollow handles for a better balance and comfortable grip, and finely honed, extra-sharp blades for superior cutting. The 45-piece Opus Set includes: 8 Dinner Knives 8 Dinner Forks 8 Dinner Spoons 8 Salad Forks 8 Teaspoons 1 Large Serving Spoon 1 Slotted Serving Spoon 1 Serving Fork 1 Butter Knife 1 Sugar Spoon.Heavy enough for everyday use and elegant enough for company, this flatware suits any occasion and then goes into the dishwasher. It's made of durable 18/10 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish. Substantial length (9-inch knives), width, and heft qualify it as European size--the kind of flatware that might be found in an upscale bistro. This Opus pattern features fork and spoon handles that turn up slightly at their ends and knife handles that curve to the right, contributing a contemporary look. The 45 pieces break down into complete table settings for 8 plus a 5-piece "hostess" set of serving pieces. A single setting consists of knife, fork, soupspoon, salad fork, and teaspoon. The hostess set consists of 6-inch sugar spoon, 7-inch butter knife, 8-1/2-inch serving fork, 8-1/4-inch serving spoon, and 8-1/4-inch pierced serving spoon. Properly cared for, this flatware should last a lifetime and beyond. --Fred Brack
