I have had my Four Star set since 1988, and they are just as good today as the day I bought them. They are a bit pricey, but they will last a lifetime. **Q: Are the knives dishwasher safe?** A: NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER put a knife in a dishwasher. EVER! I don't care what a company says. They lie. Most companies are smart enough to NEVER say you can put a knife in a dishwasher. So, NEVER, EVER. Stainless steel used for knives is not the same stainless steel used for your dinner ware. Even if it takes a long time to rust, running a knife through a dishwasher affects the edge. It will make it dull over time and you'll be sharpening it more often. But eventually it WILL get ruined with spots or rust if you run knives through the dishwasher. So, just to driver it home, NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! **Q: What's the difference between this brand and Chicago cutlery?** A: I have a set of Chicago Cutlery knives and the handles on the steak knives, (not riveted), started falling apart within a year. I think they were made of some sort of plastic. I dont ever put my knives in the dishwasher. Always wash them by hand and allow them to dry but with the Chicago Cutlery knives it didnt matter. Handles started disintegrating and the blades loosened up and fell out. I am going to order this set of Henckels, (despite the fact that this particular set is made in China, because I have seen such good reviews. Fingers crossed! **Q: Are the steak knives serrated edge or straight edge?** A: Steak knives are serrated ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Crazy sharp, good weight *by L***A on May 12, 2026* These knives are amazing, but use extreme caution as they are so sharp! They have good weight and glide through anything! No squished tomatoes or bread. We'll worth the price! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality *by S***S on June 11, 2026* Great quality for the price. They are sturdy and easy to clean. They cut steak and chicken with ease. They are also nice looking knives. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent quality blades that are easy to keep sharp *by C***C on February 12, 2025* The steel is arguably soft, but that is typical of european (particularly german) blades. The iron content of this stainless steel is high and the nickel content may be low. If left wet for long, it may develop rust spots. However, you should always clean and dry a knife after using it anyway. If taken care of, these blades will last many years. They will cut what you want and retain a nice shape. The chef's knife is great. It is the primary knife used in my kitchen. It is comfortable to use, slices through most anything with relative ease. After about ten to fifteen diced onions I like to hone the blade again to keep work quick and easy. A dull knife is much more dangerous than a sharp one they say. Despite frequent maintenance, it does an excellent job and doesn't fatigue me. The santokus are of decent quality, and feel excellent for everyday tasks. The larger one has a good weight and feeling allowing for prolonged veggie extermination, and the smaller one is light and maneuverable to really slice and shape whatever you need. The paring knife is a razor blade with a handle basically. If the chef knife is too big or unwieldy for a task, the lil guy will step up with no issue. The bread knife is sharp. It WILL cut bread. Cake too, I bet. There is another smaller serrated knife but I have yet to use it. The scissors are nothing special but provide you something to open any package of food. The steak knives are beautiful but have lesser quality steel than the bigger knives. These will straight up form rust spots if left in the sink overnight, esp along the handle and spine of the blade. Just clean them after use and they should stay pretty and sharp for ya. The included file is useful to keep my blades honed. I'd say this set is a pretty solid value for your money if you are looking for a good set of knives for the kitchen. If you don't sharpen your knives or prefer a cheap kitchenaid knife, this isn't for you. For the home cook who uses their knives for everything and appreciates them, I recommend them. ## Frequently Bought Together - HENCKELS Premium Quality 15-Piece Knife Set with Block, Razor-Sharp, German Engineered Knife Informed by over 100 Years of Masterful Knife Making, Lightweight and Strong, Dishwasher Safe - HENCKELS International Knife Sharpener, 7.7" x 8.5" x 2", Multicolor --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/2210628-henckels-statement-premium-quality-15-piece-knife-block-set-natural](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/2210628-henckels-statement-premium-quality-15-piece-knife-block-set-natural) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-06-25*
