I rated them 4 stars because of the packaging. Didn't bother me at all. My husband just used the kitchen knife to chop celery. WOW. He told me to order more so I ordered 3 more. I highly recommend them. If you are buying them as a gift, have them sent to you and rewrap. Don't let the comments about poor packaging stop you from ordering these knives!

I own 8 of these knives. Very well made , balanced and feel comfortable in the hand. Hold a nice edge too. Sad to find out they are made in China with German steel. I always thought they were made in Germany 🇩🇪 But they are lovely. I enjoy using them daily.

I use Them everyday. They are strong, sharp, and sturdy. They look very nice hung up on my wall as well. We bought a magnetic wall mount to display these knives in our kitchen.

These knives are awesome. They are solid, heavy knives that stay sharp. We have other HS knives and love them too. You really can’t go wrong with HS. Get a roller sharpener and you’re set.

Very nice knives. I had gotten some before locally so I knew what to expect

I know that these are high quality knives, but they sure weren't packaged with that in mind. When I opened the cardboard box there was no bubble wrap, or anything similar, to keep the knife box from flying around (several inches of space around the box). One of the knife points was poking out the side of the knife box and one of the tip protectors was outside of the knife box. This was to be a Christmas gift, so I decided to open it completely to see if the knives were damaged. All of the knives were out of their "slots" and several of the tip protectors were off. Just unbelievably poor care for packaging. I'm tempted to send them back only for that reason, but I'm going to give them a good look to be sure that nothing was damaged in shipment.

We bought ourselves a set and both our kids because they are such nice knives. (A friend had bought us the steak knives) They make cooking so much easier. I wish I would have bought good knives like these years ago.

I was very disappointed that the seal was broken on the box of the knife set and two of the knives had the covers removed. This was to be a gift.
