 Not worth the moneyMay 01, 2010
My knife fell apart after 2 years of moderate use. Just like a custumer's picture you (currently) see on Amazon. The rivets rusted and the handle fell off. I've never had this problem with much cheaper knives. Henckels sent me a replacement after a couple of months but it's not a retail package - looks like a rejected defective factory output (scratched handle and uneven blade) - so I can't even sell it on ebay.
I bought a couple of Japanese Shun knives on sale at Amazon while waiting for a replacement and I have to say it's night and day. Spend a little more and get a decent knife that will last you a lifetime.
Mine is Spanish-made. I think there are different versions....
 Henckel 8' Chef's KnifeApr 01, 2010
Great knife especially at the sale price of $40.00.
Very sharp + good balance = smooth cutting.
Great Knife!Mar 12, 2010
Not a master chef here but the product works great and exactly as advertised. Works a lot better in terms of cutting and handling than my previous knife. Great product for the price!

 Spend the extra on a Wusthoff....Feb 22, 2010
I have been using a J.A. Henckels set of knives and a set of Wusthoff repeatedly for a couple of years now. One set is at my job, and one set at home. I expected more from the Henckels set, because they do have a nice reputation after all. However, they were so lightweight that they feel flimsy in my hands, and the blade bends, even sharpening with very light pressure. Most importantly, the set of Henckels knives that I have experience with (perhaps the low-end of the spectrum?) didn't cut at easily as the Wusthoff set. I now have some experience to say that I VERY much prefer the Wusthoff line. Even though they are more expensive, I think the quality is worth it in the long run. I like a nicely weighted knife which helps glide through whatever I am cutting in the kitchen. Plainly stated, I have more fun in the kitchen using my Wusthoff set than the Henckels! But no matter which set you choose, just have fun cooking!
best knife i have owned!Dec 05, 2009
I have been working in restaurant kitchens as a cook since i was 16, I've gone threw a lot of knives but this one is by far the best. Its a great knife for the price, the handle feels nice to hold. The weight is well balanced. Aside from some of the super high end knives (which i would never use in a restaurant) this is a great knife for the working cook/chef. its been my work horse for about almost 2 years now and i am glad i found it.
