I chose this set for my anniversary gift at my company.  It's replacing a smaller Henckels set that my wife and I received as a wedding gift 25 years ago. That set is still in great condition and will be "handed down" to my daughter, who loves to cook. 

I really love this new 18 piece set.  These knives are from the professional "S" series and the quality is really impressive.  I really love the set and look forward to using it for the next 25 years! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
