This review is from: J.A. Henckels International Eversharp 8-Piece Steak Knife Set (Kitchen)
These knives are really great for the price. They are sharp and sturdy and do the job.
I have a set of $350 steak knives so I know what the reviewers are speaking of when they say these aren't real Henckels. That being said, THEY ARE ONLY $30. It is quite bold to pay $30 for a set of knives and then give a one star review saying that they are cheap. What did you expect?!? You bought $30 knives but reviewed as if you spent over $100. That's just seems dishonest.
You won't go wrong buying these knives. You can use them for everyday and toss them in the dishwasher and in a pinch you can disobey the cardinal rule and use one of them to open an Amazon Box because hey, they were only $30!!

I have several Henckels Eversharp steak knives that are several years old and they continue to cut well and have survived many dishwasher cycles. I just added six more that I recently purchased from Amazon and expect similar performance from these. I also own a set of Henckels Four Star knives that are over 20 years old. They do not go into the dishwasher but need regular sharpening/honing. The steak knives are not in the same league as the Four Star line but they are very convenient (just toss in the dishwasher), relatively inexpensive, perform well and are fairly durable.
My recommendation is to go with these knives if you are looking for a set of steak knives to be used on a daily basis.

You're NOT Getting Stabbed In The Back With These Knives!!!,

Well, gee whiz! All the negative press these under-rated knives are getting! I managed to slice my fingers (DEEP!) spewing blood...just trying to get them out of their packaging! They're plenty sharp alright!I didn't find them at all flimsy, wobbly or thin! On the contrary, I found them to be stable and sturdy with just the right amount of "heft". Makes me wonder WHAT people are trying to saw thru with these knives!
The knife blades are riveted to the wooden handles,the blade edge is serrated for a good sharp cut, and they DO cut very well!
For the price, for everyday use, these knives are a great deal!
