Zwilling JA Henckels Four Star 9-Piece Knife Set with Block

Favorite of Ex-wives everywhere
The quality of Henckel knives is at the top of the heap.You spend more money than this,but the knife is not going to perform any better.This will be my third set of these.Every time I got divorced these knives mysteriously dissapeared.They are all still in happy use today just not at my house.I like them so much I've bought three sets.This is the lowest price I've paid,even fifteen years ago !!I give em five stars.
JA Henckels Four Star Knife Set
The Zwilling JA Henckels Four Star 9-Piece Block Set (or any Four Star set for that matter) is absolutely the best kitchen knife ever made. There are, of course, more expensive knives but as far as feel, balance, and most importantly, cutting, this is the best knife I have ever used. I actually purchased a different set of Henckels at a local department store because they were out of the Four Star's and tomorrow they are getting donated to a charity because they just don't feel as good. There is just no comparison when you get a Four Star in your hands from the small paring knife to the large, great for everything, chef knife, for cutting things around the kitchen. If you want the absolute best knife set you can get, this is the one!
Second Set
I just purchased my second set, I know the listing say they are dishwasher safe but I do not like my knifes going into the dishwasher. I had a set that my mother gave me and I took very good care of them. My wife ran them in the dishwasher and this caused the handles to get a milky film over the top of my great looking black handles, over time I just did not care. Now that we have a new home she promised to not run them in the dishwasher again. I can't wait for my new set to arrive this week. My favorite knife is the 5" Santoku Hollow Edge I use this knife about 80% of the time. The balance and build of these knifes are fantastic. Sure you could spend thousands on more expensive knife sets but these are about the best that I have seen for the money. Make sure to buy the bigger block and get a set of steak knifes to complete the set.
