Henckels Classic 20-pc Self-Sharpening Knife Block Set is rated 4.8 out of 5 by 603.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Knife Set Who doesn't love the idea of ALWAYS having a sharp knife! That's exactly what you get with this classic set. Every time I pull it out or replace it, it gets sharpened. Ezy Peezy! And the knife itself is awesome; great weight, very well balanced and made of German steel. I think this is as close as you can get to the knives made in Germany without spending double the $$$. Two of the most used knives in my kitchen are the chef knife and the bread knife; it is truly a game changer to have these in your set. It also comes with a carving knife which I use a lot but especially appreciate it at Thanksgiving.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Pretty good set Overall it’s a nice set. Light weight and well balanced, although not as sharp out of the box, as others have stated. The knife block slots feel like they are made for a larger knife set and they don’t fit well, very loose and awkward. The chef’s knife slot doesn’t seem to sharpen as well as the others. I gave this 4 stars because it’s good set for the $350 I spent on it (on sale). If I had paid full price $700-$1,000 for this set, it would be a 3 star. I feel like if you’re going to spend that much money, that you can find plenty out there better for the high price range. But I will keep this set and use it for a long time, good deal!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Received as gift from husband My husband bought me these knives to replace my current smaller set. I like that the knife block is sturdy, nice looking, and blends with my kitchen. The knives are high quality. I didn't like that the knives were not labeled LOL. I had to figure out which knife goes in which slot. The first time it was shipped (got them from Macy's), they were improperly packed without any bubble wrap or anything to cushion them. I received the box ripped and taped up with knives out of the packaging, and the block and some knives were damaged. Getting the knives returned and sent to another address was problematic.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome block Finally a block set that has every conceivable knife, as well as 8 steak knives! Well priced because they are constructed with German steel but manufactured in Spain which brings it down to an affordable price point. The knives are housed in slots that also double as a sharpener by just pulling the knives through the slot, back and forth. The serrated knives and the steak knives are housed in the traditional slots, because those knives shouldn't be sharpened. Don't have to worry about using the honing steel, which I never mastered using, because you just sharpen when needed. Very easy and convenient.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My mom stabbed her thumb My mother took off the plastic safety tip and barely touched the point of the knife and she started bleeding! SO SHARP!! Love it. I tried cutting a tomato with a butter knife yesterday because I hadn’t received my knives yet, it was terrible. These will DEFINITELY get the job done! The self-sharpening feature is glorious. The only part I don’t like is that the block itself is 15 inches long, which takes up quite a bit of counter space, but otherwise this is fantastic. Pretty sure this thing will last through the zombie apocalypse, it’s heavy duty. Bring on gun control, I have deadly knives.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far so good! These knives are not that heavy compared to our old Henckel Knives. We love these 20 pc knives that self sharpens on the block and the block has written labels on it, so you know where to put back your knives back. My tip is, you need to take a picture of the different types of knives on the box once you purchase it. The reason for that is the manual doesn't have the pictures of knives and if you're not familiar which is which, you end up putting knives in different slots. I'm kinda OCD so I wanted the knives to be on the specific slot for them. It might be overwhelming at first but you will soon notice the differences between knives. Just remember serrated knives should not be put on self sharpening slots. You can easily identify which slots are for serrated knives. Overall, this is a must buy for quality knives!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not holding up like our previous set The knives in this set do not seem to be holding up as well as our previous set (which we had for years). Also, the self sharpening makes the knife blades uneven/chips in the blade. Even with the recommended care/cleaning, these knives seem to be corroding and have rust spots.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Always Sharp! I love that these knives are so low maintenance that that I don't have to think about whether or not I am using a sharp knife. I never knew how much easier it was to cut with a sharp knife all the time because when I have purchased knives in the past, the knife would dull at such a slow rate that I always just thought I needed a new one, but not anymore! I love the weight of theses knives and that fact that this set comes with steak knives! I also love how each slot had a picture of what knife goes where so I don't have to guess.

I have noticed some rust spots that I have been able to get rid of using barkeeps but I also need a product that will keep them shining and spot free can you recommend something?

Asked by: rocksolid
Thank you for contacting ZWILLING HENCKELS! The best way is washing all of your knives by hand, it’s gentler on the steel. Clean them under lukewarm water with a mild detergent and a non-scratch cloth or sponge. Then dry immediately. Keep your Storage Block slots clear of moisture and dust. Here is our Use and Care link: https://www.zwilling.com/us/about-us/use-care/article-use-care-knives.html Thank you Zwilling Henckels

For this set, what style are the steak knives, are they the classic steak knives or are they solution stake knives or other? I want to ensure that if I am buying the "class" and spending the extra money that I am getting the "classic" steak knives as well

Asked by: MichelleM
The steak knives are our stamped Prime style. This keeps the cost of the set accessible. If you would like to complete your set with our forged Classic steak knives, they are available separately here: https://www.zwilling.com/us/henckels-classic-4-pc-steak-knife-set-39360-000/39360-000-0.html

What is the difference between the Statement and Classic lines as far as quality of the knife? 

Asked by: Jillian
While the Statement and Classic knives are made of the same steel, Statement is stamped, which means the knives are lighter and more flexible by design, which is ideal for customers who can't use heavy cutlery and/or are concerned about wrist strain. Our Classic line is forged, so the knives are heavier and more durable. Classic is our highest quality Henckels International style with superior sharpness and edge retention.
