Razor-Sharp Steak Knife Set of 8, German Engineered Informed by 100+ Years of Mastery, Sliver

At first I was a little disappointed because while weighty—we ARE talking about steel here—they are not the over-sized version of a steak knife you might see in a restaurant. My disappointment was short-lived. The knives are sized enough to look good next to my other flatware in a table setting and, more importantly, they are some kind of sharp. You will not have to ‘saw’ at your meat. They look good, and, my friend, please be careful. I did say they were sharp, right? Believe me.

These Henckels steak knives are absolutely fantastic! From the moment I unboxed them, I could tell they were high-quality—sleek design, perfectly balanced, and ultra-sharp right out of the box. Cutting through steak, chicken, or even thick pork chops feels effortless. No sawing, no tearing—just clean, smooth cuts every time. You can really feel the German craftsmanship in these knives, they are heavy and not at all flimsy or lightweight. They have a solid, durable feel and look like they belong in a top-tier restaurant. I also love that cleanup is a breeze—whether you hand wash or toss them in the dishwasher, they come out spotless and rust-free. After trying so many different knife sets over the years, I can confidently say this will be the last one I ever need to buy. If you're looking to upgrade your dining experience or impress dinner guests, this set is a must-have. Highly recommended!

I am no knife expert by any means, but I find some of the reviews about these knives difficult to understand specifically, the sharpness of the blade. These knives are sharp, and you would be well advised to be careful when washing or handling them. How long they stay this way time will tell, but out of the box, they are extremely sharp. As for the design, they are comfortable to hold and use and they just feel good in my hands. To me, they feel weighted very well and I can feel the weight of the blade when cutting. In summary, you can spend a lot more for better knives I'm sure, but these are reasonably priced for Henkels knives and I'm sure they will last me a very long time since I take care of my utensils by hand washing and drying.

Elegant design.

Very nice solid set of steak knives. Handles are solid wood and nicely finished. Solid construction and quite sharp on arrival. Not very visible in product photos but edge is partially serrated as most people would want.

Simple, lovely design. Slim profile, nicely balanced. Am confident they will maintain sharpness as have other knives I've acquired of this brand.

Best Steak Knives I Ever Had They Go Through A Steak Like A Hot Knife Through Butter

Let me just start by saying, if you thought you were buying a simple steak knife set, you were gravely mistaken. The HENCKELS Razor-Sharp Steak Knife Set is less “cutlery” and more a set of precision instruments that could make Vlad the Impaler blush. These knives are too sharp—so sharp that the moment you open the box, you’ll feel like you need to make an appointment with a therapist. The first cut was innocent enough. I thought I was slicing into a juicy ribeye. No big deal, right? WRONG. The knife glided through the steak like it was slicing through the fabric of reality itself. One second I was slicing beef, and the next, I was questioning the very purpose of my existence. “Am I even worthy of owning these knives?” I whispered to myself as the steak fell apart, almost too easily, as though the cow had voluntarily surrendered its flesh to the blade. By the time I made it through my second cut, I was convinced these knives were forged in some shadowy German laboratory where scientists cackle maniacally as they test the edges on meteorite shards and dragon scales. These blades are ridiculous. You know that delicate fat cap on a steak? Yeah, these knives didn’t just cut it—they severed it from reality. I’m pretty sure I tore a hole in the time-space continuum, and now a dimension full of sentient steaks knows about us. I keep hearing whispers of “The Great Butchery” when I try to sleep. Now let’s talk about the weight. You pick one up, and suddenly you feel like you’re the lead character in an over-the-top action movie—only instead of battling bad guys, you’re the villain, relentlessly slicing through steaks with no mercy. The knife doesn’t just rest in your hand—it demands action. You won’t even realize it, but you’ll start to slice everything: bread, vegetables, your hopes and dreams. Nothing can stand in the way of these blades. Did I mention these knives are too effective? My steak? Obliterated. I didn’t “eat” it so much as I watched it disintegrate. Each slice was so perfectly thin and delicate that I didn’t chew my food; I absorbed it. I’m pretty sure I became one with the steak, or the knife, or maybe both. I don’t even know who I am anymore. And there are eight of them. WHY? Who needs eight weapons of this magnitude? Am I starting a steak-cutting cult? A knife-fueled doomsday prophecy? I’m half-convinced I need to register these knives with the government—they’re basically classified military-grade tools. In the wrong hands, they could start a steak revolution. No cut of meat is safe. So, if you’re ready to sacrifice your sanity and perhaps unleash a blade-wielding alter ego, then by all means, buy this set. But be warned—once you experience this level of sharpness, there’s no going back. 5 Stars—Perfect for anyone trying to live out their inner steak-slicing supervillain fantasies.

They were exactly what I was looking for except the size! The length is about 1 inch too short, which makes it harder to use. The blade is excellent. If this brand had designed the handle longer and curvier then I would have bought all cutlery from them regardless of the price for the quality is outstanding!!

Je cherchais désespérenment des couteaux à steak qui vont au lave-vaisselle. Je ne peux toujours pas comprendre qu'ils ne sont pas tous faits ainsi ("allant au lave-vaisselle"), mais bon, j'ai trouvé ces couteaux. Après deux ou trois lavages, je confirme, ces couteaux vont au lave-vaisselle, et sont facile et agréables à manier ainsi que très tranchants.

Muy buenos cuchillos para carne. Bonitos y de muy buena calidad

These knives are sharp, elegant and well weighted for balance. All in all a great product from a well known manufacturer. German steel but made in Thailand.
