HENCKELS Solution Starter Set, 3-pc, Black/Stainless Steel

Bought this set for our eldest. This is a great starter set for someone setting up their kitchen for the first time. Henckels makes a good-quality knife. They are sharp and feel good in the hand. This set of three packs a lot of bang for the buck, containing a chef's knife, pairing knife, and utility knife. All bases are covered. Easy to sharpen and a whole heck of a lot better than those cheaply made sets of 14-piece sets. Bought this on a Prime sale, and it was worth every penny.

Had these now for 3+ years and cannot recommend enough. If you’re picky with knives, but too lazy to hand wash, these are for you. I use them every day, put them in the top rack, just sliced a tomato — occasionally give them a quick home sharpen with a cheap and easy sharpener, but that’s it. I had an expensive competitor before, but these are all I use now.

I didn't realize how bad my old set was until I got this set. I cut my finger on the first use. Be careful. These knives are beautiful and very, very sharp (as a kitchen knife should be). I love them.

These were a replacement for my 20-year-old knives. They work very well, and are as sharp and functional as it says in the description. The 3 sizes are great for someone who doesn't do a lot of fancy cooking, but needs decent knives when they do. I also bought 3 knife sheaths that fit perfectly, and will protect the knives (and my fingers) when they're in the drawer.

When I mentioned to my husband that I needed some new kitchen knives, he said one word: Henckel. I purchased this set and after using the Henckel brand one time, I realized how dull (and rusted) my old knives were. This set is very functional and each one is comfortable in my hand. This set was a great price point and will handle everything I need in the kitchen. Words of caution: knives are EXTREMELY sharp!
