From the 3-inch paring for smaller scale jobs to the all-rounder 8-inch chef’s knife for slicing and dicing, this set contains the key knives for all tasks, along with kitchen shears and 6 ultra-sharp steak knives.Sleek and elegant, the Graphite cutlery line features a fully forged bolster construction that seamlessly transitions from blade to handle for durability, balance, and superior design. Fabricated from high-quality German stainless steel, the satin-finished blade produces precision cuts and is honed for long-lasting sharpness. Contoured for comfort, the smooth handle is designed for fatigue-free cutting. It has a handsome, stainless steel end cap stamped with HENCKELS' single man logo, a Halberdier, who stands for the brand's superior quality at an exceptional value. These dishwasher safe knives make clean up a cinch.

Q: Are the steak knives in self sharpening slots?
submitted by M - 14 days ago
A: steak knives are not self-sharpening. They are serated so no need to sharpen. Sharpeners are meant for the smooth bladed knives. In 30 yrs never needed to sharpen my steak knives.

Excellent Knife Set
This is my second Henckels knife set (the last set lasted 19 years and survived four growing children). The knives are heavy, sharp, and flawlessly polished. The block is a heavy polished wood and stainless steel - looks great on the counter top. Henckels is the only brand I love and trust!

Rusting blades
We have only used for a couple of months and the blades are already rusting.
1 reply from Consumer Relations team - 11 days ago
Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience. We’re very sorry to hear that the blades on your knives have started to rust after only a few months of use. That is certainly not the experience we want for our customers, as Henckels knives are designed to maintain their quality and performance over time. Rust or staining can sometimes occur if moisture or certain acidic foods remain on the blade for extended periods, even with careful use. To help prevent this, we recommend drying the knives immediately after washing and storing them in a dry environment. Since the rust appears to be minor, you may be able to safely remove it using a non-abrasive cleaner, such as Bar Keepers Friend, along with a soft cloth. After cleaning, be sure to rinse thoroughly, dry immediately, and store your knives in a dry place to help prevent future rusting. If you notice any further issues or would like guidance on care, please don’t hesitate to contact our Customer Service team at hello@henckels.com. We’re happy to assist and ensure your knives continue to perform at their best.

Beautiful quality knife set
So pleased with my purchase! The block is beautiful and I love that it’s self sharpening. The knives are very sharp. They are durable and high quality without being too heavy. Even though it says they can be washed in the dishwasher, I will hand wash because I want them to be just as beautiful in 5 years as they are today!

Best knife set I’ve ever purchased
First time purchasing a complete knife set and I’m super impressed and happy with its sharpness, easy handling. I can tell that I’ll be able to use them for years and years. Super easy to take care of and clean. Love that the block comes with each of its own knife sharpener. Well worth the money spent!

Not for dishwasher
We bought this about 1 to ,2 years ago and they are not for dishwasher coating comes off the handles
1 reply from Consumer Relations team - 11 days ago
Thank you so much for reaching out and sharing your experience. We’re truly sorry to hear that the coating on the handles of your Henckels Graphite 14‑pc Self-Sharpening Knife Block Set has come off, that is certainly not the experience we want for our customers. While the knives are listed as dishwasher safe, frequent dishwasher use can sometimes accelerate wear on coated handles over time. To help maintain the appearance and longevity of your knives, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water and drying immediately. We would love the opportunity to take a closer look for you. Our Customer Service team can review your set and provide guidance on care or possible warranty options. Please contact us at hello@henckels.com, and we’ll be happy to assist you.

Dissapointed
I purchased this knife set about two years ago, expecting good quality and durability, but I’m really disappointed. Despite regular use and proper care, the handles have become discolored and spotty, and the blades have started to rust and stain. I always hand wash and dry them right away, so this kind of wear shouldn’t happen so soon. While they were sharp and nice looking at first, the overall build quality clearly doesn’t hold up over time. For the price and the brand, I expected these knives to last much longer. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this set they look older than they are and haven’t maintained their performance or appearance.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we’re very sorry to hear about the issues you’ve encountered with your knife set. What you’re describing, discoloration of handles and rust or staining on the blades, is certainly not what we want our customers to experience, especially when you’ve been hand washing and drying your knives promptly. Henckels knives are designed for long-lasting performance, and it sounds like your set may have experienced an unusual issue. We’d like to make this right for you. Please kindly reach out to our Customer Service team at hello@henckels.com with your purchase details and photos of the knives, and our team will review your case and assist you further. Alternatively, you can initiate a warranty claim through our website’s Service Center (https://www.henckels.com/us/support-center), as this would be considered a warranty issue. We truly value your feedback and appreciate the opportunity to ensure your knives meet the high standards expected from Henckels.

Poor Quality
Received as a wedding gift. After only a month of use, almost all the knives has rust spots on them. We followed care instructions and hand washed only. A waste of money.

I absolutely love this knife set!
I am beyond impressed with my Henckels 14-piece knife set! The quality is outstanding — each knife is incredibly sharp, perfectly balanced, and feels comfortable in my hand. Whether I’m slicing, dicing, or chopping, these knives handle every task with ease. The included block is not only sleek and stylish on my counter, but it keeps everything neatly organized and accessible. I’ve never enjoyed cooking more! If you’re looking for a high-quality, durable knife set that truly delivers, this is it. I absolutely love it!

Not durable
Handles started to peal a month after purchasing. Knife blades are good and hold an edge well. The finish on the handles coming off was a big let down

Viola clean cut every time
I love my new knives. When I first tried the chef’s I threw a lime into the air and sliced it clean. I could not believe it was clean through. I tried it a few more times and viola it worked every time. I don’t recommend trying this but it was fun.

Solid knives, iffy block
Solid knives, the block is too large though. It takes up most of the counter depth. Could have been made less shallow to be more space efficient
