Cutlery Set

This is a review of the Zwilling JA Henckels International EverEdge Plus 13 Piece Block Cutlery Set. If you are looking for cutlery sets be sure to check the CSN Stores.

Overview
The Eversharp Pro knives feature a micro-serrated edge that never needs sharpening. Different serration by knife style. Each knife has the correct edge construction for the appropriate cutting job, and the blades are made of high quality stainless steel for stain and rust resistance. The stamped blades also feature a duo-finish for a professional look. Eversharp Pro features contoured black polypropylene handles with triple rivets and full tang which are sturdy, hygienic and break proof.

Set Includes:
* 3" Parer
* 6" Utility Knife
* 8" Chef's
* 8" Bread Knife
* 5" Boning Knife
* 4.5" Tomato Knife
* 6 4.5" Steak Knives
* Hardwood Block
* Bonus: Fork Tip Cheese Knife

My Opinion
One of the first features I noticed on this set was the handles. I have small hands and I find many knives just aren't a comfortable fit for me when I use them. The first thing I noticed when I picked up one of the EverEdge knives was how comfortable it felt in my hand, it was a good fit and not bulky. I also asked my husband to use the knives and he was very happy with the feel as well.

When I pick up a knife in my kitchen I like a sharp knife but often find myself wishing I had sharpened the knife before starting my task. Usually the sharp edge doesn't last very long either. The EverEdge knives are very sharp and the cuts were very clean. These knives made the task of slicing carrots and other vegetables quick and easy. For the same meal I also carved a roast and sliced some bread. All of the EverEdge knives I used preformed perfectly.

My conclusion, the EverEdge cutlery set is a good buy. The knives are sharp and the handles are comfortable to use. Also the hardwood block is very stable and compact, it takes up minimal counter space. I would recommend this cutlery set to my friends. These are strictly my opinions .

The Zwilling JA Henckels International EverEdge Plus 13 Piece Block Cutlery Set was sent to me by CSN Stores for review. I was not monetarily compensated for my review.

Well I'm planning to buy a new set, the old ones can't handle tough ones anymore, maybe I'm gonna try to look for one like that and let's see.

great review, if we needed knives i would certainly look at these. we have had ours for years and hubby sharpens them in his workshop. since i am in the process of giving up cooking, i don't want to mention getting new knives.

Great review... I have one Henckel and love it...hubby is careful about giving me sharp objects he says the way I whiz about in the kitchen I could hurt myself..thus he is the cut and dice man.

Wonderful review, Judy! I hope you get to keep the knife. It's hard to find knives that feel comfortable in our hands.

Very nice, Judy.... I hope at least they gave you the set---if they didn't pay you for the advertising...

Hugs,
