Henckels Zwilling Solinger 3-pc Knife Set Review

About.com Rating five out of Five

By Mariette Mifflin, About.com

The Bottom Line

These J.A. Henckels Zwilling Solinger knives are great performers on the block. They hold their sharp edge very well, and have a great 'feel' in your hand. These are full tang, professional quality chef's knives. I especially like the thin blade which just glides through the meat.
Pros
  • Nice weight, well balanced
  • Terrific sharp edge
  • Sharpening steel
Cons
  • Presentation box is not as convenient for easy retrieval

Description

  • Presentation boxed 3-pc knife set
  • 9" carving knife, 4" paring knife and sharpener
  • Friodur Ice hardened
  • No-Stain finish

Guide Review - Henckels Zwilling Solinger 3-pc Knife Set Review

This 3 pc Henckels Knife Set was a gift, and came in a wooden presentation case. The set consists of a sharpening steel, a 4" paring and a 9" carving knife. They are excellent knives, made of Friodur Ice hardened steel and can easily slice through a roast or turkey.

There has been no discoloration or pitting on the blade. Their condition is like knew although they've been used many times. Their storage container probably can take some of the credit for this.

These would be handier in a knife block; they are much too sharp to place in a drawer. Unfortunately, since they are boxed and not as conveniently located, they come out for occasions only. They really deserve to come out everyday.

This is an older set and proudly displays its quality.
