J.A. Henckels International Henckels Classic 7-Inch Santoku Knife with Hollow Edge Review

I'm a fan of the Spanish-made Henckel's Int'l Classic lines. I have the bread knife and the utility knife as well. I think the major budget concessions (as these are not the high-end German-made line) comes in the size. Classic blades, though full-tang and thrice-riveted, have less steel than comparable brands. This makes them slender and light in the hand. However, less steel is not lower-quality steel, and these blades are incredibly hard and reliable.
This santoku is still large enough to use as a spatula when cutting, delivering onions, mushrooms or other slices or mince to the pan while cooking speedily. It sharpens easily (I use a small stone under running water), and responds well to a steel every few uses. It's the sharpest blade in my collection, easily slicing up my sponges when I clean it. With care, it won't do the same to your skin, mostly because of the sturdiness of construction that breeds confident handling. It won't slide off most vegetables before slicing in, and can even cleave small poultry bones with slow and steady pressure downward (I wouldn't use it to hack as real cleavers do). This is a precision instrument, not a blunt tool.

When you've got a big prep job, this 7-inch Henckels Classic Santoku knife will get the job done quickly and precisely. The Asian-style Santoku knife has broad blade and especially sharp cutting edge, and it's a great companion for preparing meat, fish, and vegetables. All Henckels Santoku knives have a fine-polished razor edge that gives them their typical sharpness, and a hollow edge that is ideal for extra thin cutting.
Part of the J.A. Henckels International Classic cutlery series, this knife features a commercial design that's hot drop forged for durability, strength and weight. Made of a non-staining carbon steel, it's hand honed to a precision cutting edge. The triple riveted handle surrounds a full tang. Together with a full bolster, this handle provides proper balance to safely and comfortably execute even the most difficult cutting tasks. It's backed by a lifetime warranty against defects in material and/or craftsmanship. Handwashing with mild cleanser recommended.

We've been looking to replace our stainless for a few years now, patiently waiting for the right set that balanced style, features, durability and value. It was tough as most of the sets we liked were very expensive - $20+ per place setting. We thought about a Mikasa set that is made in Korea, but we were not sold on the style and they were made of 18/8 steel; a lesser grade of stainless.
We came across this set of Oneida at a local department store for $150 for the 12 piece setting. We agreed that it was the set we were looking for but we came home to see if it was available at amazon.com.
We were delighted to find it at 1/3 lower cost - what a great buy! They arrived today and we could not be happier. 18/10 (same as the $20+ sets) and the same weight as well.
GREAT FIND - you'll love them.

Forged flatware features superb pattern definition, heavy gauge pieces with a sturdy feel, and in the case of this pattern, generous sizing. Garnet is a contemporary design that features both polished and frosted finishes, as well as an interesting sculpted treatment at the tip of each piece.
