J.A. Henckels International Fine Edge Pro 7-Piece Knife Set with Block Review



J.A. Henckels International Fine Edge Pro 7-Piece Knife Set with Block Feature

  • 3-inch Parer, 5-inch Serrated Utility, 8-inch Chef's, 7-inch Hollow Edge Santoku, Kitchen Shears, 9-inch Steel, Hardwood Block
  • Stamped stainless-steel blades
  • Knives have black plastic, three-rivet, full-tang handles
  • Knives made in China
  • Lifetime warranty
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. The set includes a 7-inch hollow-edge santoku, an 8-inch chef's knife, a 5-inch serrated utility, and a 3-inch paring knife for peeling and cleaning vegetables and fruits. A 9-inch sharpening steel keeps their edges in order, and a pair of kitchen shears to snip herbs, flowers, or string is also included. Everything fits into the rubber-footed, solid hardwood block. 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's premier lines--the blades are less strong. Knives are dishwasher-safe, but it's not recommended. --Fred Brack

Chef's Choice Multi-Edge Diamond Hone Knife Sharpener

Chef's Choice Multi-Edge Diamond Hone Knife Sharpener Review



Chef's Choice Multi-Edge Diamond Hone Knife Sharpener Feature

  • Sharpens any straight-edge or serrated knife
  • Works for kitchen, outdoor, and pocket knives
  • Two-stage system double-bevels straight-edge blades for long-lived edges
  • One-stage system straightens and sharpens serrated blades
  • Precise, V-shaped guides eliminate mistakes
Diamond abrasives in this tool actually sharpen a knife rather than simply realign its edges, as most sharpeners and sharpening steels do. For right-handers and left-handers alike, it's simplicity itself to use. Grasp the handle and draw a straight-edge blade back and forth through the stage 1 guide 25 to 50 times to coarsely bevel it. Then move the blade to the stage 2 guide and draw back and forth 10 times through finer diamond crystals for the second, fine-edged bevel. Serrated blades go only through stage 2. By turning, rollers demonstrate that a blade is properly straight so it is being beveled at the precise angle required. Lightweight but tough, the sharpener is formed of silver and black plastic. It's 6-1/2 inches by 2-1/4 inches, small enough to take on a camping or hunting trip. --Fred Brack If you find sharpening steels a bit intimidating and haven't the faintest idea what to do with a whetstone, consider this manual sharpener. Precision sharpening angle control, two-stage sharpening, and 100 per cent diamond abrasives come together in an easy-to-use design. Safe for quality knives this breakthrough sharpener puts an excellent, longer lasting edge on both straight edge and serrated blades.

Lansky Deluxe 5-Stone Sharpening System

Lansky Deluxe 5-Stone Sharpening System Review



Lansky Deluxe 5-Stone Sharpening System Feature

  • Deluxe 5-stone knife sharpening system for kitchen, outdoor, hobby, or garden knives
  • Includes extra-coarse, coarse, medium, fine alumina oxide, and extra-fine ceramic hones
  • Controlled-angle sharpening system with 17-, 20-, 25-, and 30-degree angle options
  • Color-coded stones with finger-grooved safety holders; specially formulated honing oil
  • Includes precision-engineered knife clamp and custom-molded storage/carrying case
Sharpen all of your knives with ease with the Lansky Deluxe five-stone sharpening system. The system comes with five sharpening hones of different coarseness: an extra-coarse hone (70 grit), a coarse hone (120 grit), a medium hone (280 grit), a fine alumina oxide hone (600 grit), and an extra-fine ceramic hone (1,000 grit). As a result, you'll have the tools to sharpen virtually any type of kitchen, hobby, hunting, or garden knife. The system is easy to use, with a controlled-angle sharpening system built into the precision-engineered knife clamp. Simply secure the knife and choose your preferred angle and you'll receive a professional razor-sharp edge every time.

Each of the four angle options is suitable for a different knife type. The severe 17-degree angle is recommended for razor blades, X-Acto blades, scalpels, and similar tools, as it provides an extremely sharp but delicate edge. The 20-degree angle is commonly used for higher-quality blades, making it ideal for kitchen cutlery and filet knives. The 25-degree angle is recommended for knives that need a durable, sharp edge, such as hunting and outdoor knives. And the 30-degree angle is recommended for heavy-duty knives that commonly cut cardboard, wire, or carpets

Each honing stone is color-coded, with finger-grooved safety holders to keep your hand secure. The kit also comes with a guide rod for each honing stone, specially formulated honing oil, extra-long knife clamp screws, easy-to-follow multilingual instructions, and a custom molded storage/carrying case to hold all system components. Deluxe version of our Std System adds an Extra Coarse and an Ultra Fine hone

  • Forged, high-carbon stainless steel blade, hand-honed for razor-like sharpness
  • Traditional-style composition handle is triple-riveted for strength and permanence
  • Dishwasher safe
  • Lifetime guarantee
Every element of this renowned cutlery contributes to its precision and ease of use. The high-carbon stainless steel blades are hardened to maintain a sharp edge and full tangs provide perfect balance with riveted, high-impact composition handles. Designed much like a tomato knife, this serrated knife will cut into food with crusty or hard outsides and soft insides while leaving everything intact. Great for snack food like cheese, salami, bagels and tomatoes. Keep on handy on picnics, and wine and cheese trips. Prized possessions of professional chefs, Wusthof knives are an invaluable asset of any kitchen. In Solingen, Germany, each piece is hand-forged in 38 manufacturing steps by skilled craftsmen. Lifetime warranty. Wusthof's newest state of the art technology incorporates a new computer controlled method for putting the edge on Classic knives. This technology allows for an exacting edge from the tip of the knife down to the heel of the knife. With this newer precision, the knives are made sharper to 14 degrees per side for a total of 28 degrees. The knives are now sharper and this refinement increases the sharpness retention because exacting angles and edges last longer than edges sharpened by hand. The result is a knife that is 30% sharper and the ICP (Initial Cutting Performance) lasts twice as long..
