Customer Reviews

sharp knife, great design5
This knife looks better in person than in the pictures. It's sharp, looks cool, and is thin enough to cut easily.

Good quality for what you pay for.5
I got this (and the set of synergy knives -- different product) for my mom as a gift. If you can spend the money to get the twin series or better with Henckels, then go for it, but the Synergy line is a great second-rate knife that Henckels makes, as long as you avoid putting them in the dishwasher. I really don't know why they bother using "dishwasher-safe*" as a selling point, since they don't recommend it in the first place.

The blades will keep their sharpness, and the molded handles, even though they're made of plastic, are dense and have some good heft to them, which I like in my knives.

Great knives. Highest quality. I have a complete set and they are the best knives I have ever used.
