J.A. Henckels International Eversharp Pro 7-Piece Knife Set with Block
Made from high quality stainless steel with a micro-serrated edge, the Eversharp Pro line of kitchen knives from J.A. Henckels International are touted as never needing sharpening. This 7-piece set includes 8-inch chef, 8-inch bread, 7-inch santoku, 5-inch boning, 5-inch tomato, and 3-inch paring knives. It also includes a handsome hardwood storage block with rubber feet for a firm, non-scratch grip on your counter.Eversharp Pro knives are made from high-grade, rolled stainless steel, produced using Henckels' own Sintermetal Component Technology. This process allows different grades of steel to be combined to form a single integral piece capable of withstanding extreme stress--each part of the knife is made from the grade of steel with the optimum characteristics for that component. Cutting edges feature a specially designed serration pattern, ensuring prolonged sharpness without resharpening. The full-length tang (meaning the metal continues all the way through to the end of the handle) gives you a better-balanced and stronger knife. The polypropylene handle with rustproof rivets is nearly indestructible.They're dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended to keep the steel blades scratch-free. Unlike Henckels' premier knives, which are made in Germany, these knives are made in China; however, they do carry the company's lifetime warranty against defects.What's in the Box7-piece set includes 8-inch chef's knife, 8-inch bread knife, 7-inch santoku knife, 5-inch boning knife, 5-inch tomato knife, 3-inch paring knife, and hardwood storage block
