J.A. Henckels International Fine Edge Pro 13-Piece Knife Set with Block Feature

3-inch paring, 5-inch utility, 8-inch chef's, 5-inch boning, 8-inch bread, 9-inch steel, six 4-inch steak knives
Rubber-footed, solid wood block
Full, three-rivet tangs and polypropylene handles
Safe to use in dishwasher

This set represents a revelation for any cook with a drawer full of stained, blunt knives. Nearly every basic kitchen-cutlery need is satisfied in one package compact enough to place on the counter within reach. Everything fits into the rubber-footed, solid block. Included are a 3-inch paring knife, a 5-inch utility knife, an 8-inch chef's knife, a 5-inch boning knife, an 8-inch bread knife, a 9-inch steel, and six 4-inch steak knives. International Fine Edge is an inexpensive cutlery line made in countries other than Henckels's home of Germany. The knives don't have bolsters and the steel is of lesser quality than Henckels' premier lines--the blades are less strong. The knives are dishwasher-safe, but it's not recommended. --Fred Brack
