Summary: Returning this item
Comment: Most of the knives would not fit into the block, they were too large.
The santoku knife would not even cut a tomato without first piercing the tomato with the knife tip - very unsatisfactory
I realize this is an inexpensive set, but even my local supermarket sells better knives for less.
very disappointing.
Customer Rating:
Summary: not good-not bad
Comment: This is overall a nice set of knives, good weight and they don't bend too much. The price is the selling point here, Henckels International means "made in China or Taiwan" not Germany but overall it is a nice set. If you are the person who wants the German name this is not for you but if you want a knife that is sharp and ready to use every day, give them a try.

Summary: Satisfied
Comment: I read all the online reviews before ordering this set and they made me a little nervous, however, I'm happy to report that the knives are perfectly fine. This is my first set of nicer knives (they replaced my college knives which were bought 10 years ago from walmart!) so I don't have much to compare them to. They cut everything I want them to cut without nearly as much as my old knives and without a problem. Overall I'm very satisfied. Are there nicer knives out there? Without a doubt, but you pay a lot more for those. This is a solid starter set for a good price.

Summary: J.A. Henckels International Fine Edge Pro 7-Piece Knife Set with Hardwood Block
Comment: Was given as a gift to son and daughter-in-law. They appeared to want it so we purchased it. Not the most expensive set but of good quality.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Item title causes confusion. Not Pro-S series.... Fine Edge Pro Series.
Comment: When looking at the description, "Fine Edge Pro S" it looked like they were describing the Pro S series knives as containing fine-edged knives. However, this is not a set of Pro S knives. Instead, it is part of the "value" brand Henckels sells, and the knives are "Fine Edge Pro" series knives. They are made in Shanghai. Honestly I haven't opened the box yet, since it was going to be a gift for someone seeking the actual Pro S knives. Well, you know, you get what you pay for, and these were really cheap (relatively). They're probably better than what you have in your kitchen now - unless you already have Pro S knives and wanted to get some more.
