Product Description
If you are considering an investment in fine cutlery, why not start with the essentials? This starter set has the knives that you'll reach for over and over again. Once you've enjoyed the superior quality of Henckels, you will undoubtedly want to add to your collection.
A great gift, this set provides a cook with enough versatility to accomplish most kitchen tasks. The chef's knife, with a broad blade and curved cutting edge for rocking through a chopping task, chops, minces, slices, and dices. The utility knife slices, cuts, and chops; its 6-inch blade is large enough to trim a chuck roast or subdue a head of lettuce. The paring knife cuts, peels, and cleans fruits and vegetables. Classic three-rivet handles distinguish Pro S from Henckels's other quality lines, TwinStar, Five Star, and Four Star. Pro S handles are heavier and its knives less weight-forward. Handles are also smaller, a feature those with small hands may appreciate. The steel used in the Pro S line is identical to that of the Five and Four Star lines. High-tech welding of larger knives combines three steel types into what appears to be a single piece so a knife's parts have distinct characteristics. The paring knife is forged. While this set is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack

A Reliable Standard in Knife Construction
Twin Pro S knives are precision forged from a single piece of exclusive-formula, high-carbon, no-stain steel under the all-new Sigmaforge standard. As a result, Twin Pro S knives have improved quality consistency, lasting sharpness, and perfect geometry. Sigmaforge one-piece construction also provides high precision and improved stability of the blade and steel structure, thus improving cutting-edge retention for lasting sharpness. In addition, Twin Pro S knives use J.A. Henckels’s Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.
An Ergonomic Handle for Easier Use
J.A. Henckels’s Twin Pro S knives boast a comfortable, ergonomic three-rivet handle design that won’t wear against the hand and helps to provide control when doing any cutting task. These durable Novodur handles are perfectly bonded to the full tang on each knife for stability and durability. The impeccably balanced super bolster provides weight and adds balance for safer and more professional cutting.

Customer Reviews for: Henckels Twin Pro S 3-Piece High-Carbon Stainless-Steel Knife Starter Set
Rating - Great knives !
Although some people reported poor quality control for the handles and tops of these knives, I do not agree. The set I recently received is flawless. The blades are sharp and the handle finish is smooth and even. When in use, these knives have perfect balance and work better than any I have used.
If you want the BEST in a quality knife set, you can't go wrong with these. I look forward to adding additional pieces to my collection and won't hesitate to buy the Pro S.
Rating - These are real knives
Our old knives were hand-me-down stainless no-name junk. These are real knives, nice weight and very sharp. I like the classic style handles that are absolutely smooth and comfortable. I'm keeping the old knives for my wife who is afraid of sharp knives and tends to use them for prying, scraping, etc...
This time of year (late summer/fall) in the northeast is tomato time. The 6" utility knife and the parer are tremendous with tomatoes and they just slide through slippery onion and pepper skins. Makes me feel like I know what I'm doing.
Can't wait to cut up a pineapple, or to cut the skin and fat ... Read More
