Review: Sharp, beautiful, comfortable & an INCREDIBLE value! - You can certainly spend a small fortune for more expensive knives, but this knife is of great quality, looks beautiful, and sits comfortably in your hand. It is an AMAZING value for your money (I paid $39.95 in July 2021). As you can see from the packaging in my photos, " All HENCKELS merchandise is fully guaranteed against defects in material and/or craftsmanship." Make sure you go to their website to activate your lifetime warranty and you're all set. This is great peace-of-mind. Like many of their products, I guess you COULD put these in the dishwasher, but I would not recommend it - handwashing preserves & prolongs the quality of the blade and the integrity of the handle. The knife measures 13 inches long end-to-end, with the blade of 8 inches (as advertised) and a 5-inch handle. The end of the handle has the Henckels, single-person stick figure logo as part of the single piece of metal from end-to-end. My favorite part is the weight of the blade, which does all the work for you and reduces hand/grip fatigue with long cutting tasks, and also the curved shape of the handle (see pics). It is very comfortable to hold for a period of time whether holding it "properly" like a chef (holding the blade & handle, or just holding the handle. Store this guy in a decent container (a counter block or a drawer block) and it will treat you well for a long time. This was a great purchase at a great price!
Review: Wow. What a value! - I purchased this knife to replace my original 15-year old Henckels chef's knife (made in Germany) which was part of a set. The big problems I had with my old knife were: a) it would just not hold an edge, and b) my knuckles would bump the cutting board while using. This especially prevented me from holding the knife properly, requiring me to point my index finger along the top of the blade to make more room for my big hands. For my large hands, this knife is perfect. It gives me another 1/3" more clearance for my knuckles, promotes proper grip and makes cutting a breeze. So far, the edge is razor sharp, and I regularly hone and sharpen as necessary so I'm hopeful this knife will keep performing . The fit and finish are extremely good. It's a solid, medium weight knife that has inspired new confidence in my culinary skills. I would have gladly paid WAY more for something this good. Just buy it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The knife in the picture is not the forged premio. Is the knife being sold the forged premio or is it the knife pictured?**
A: On the contrary, the photo is of the Forged Premio (12/19/2021). I own the knife and it’s outstanding for the price. And in response to another person’s answer, yes, it is indeed forged, not stamped.

**Q: Where is the J.A.Henckels International Forged Premio knife made?**
A: I believe they are made in China, not Germany. They are still hot drop forged hammered steel, and quality controlled by Henckels - just not made in Germany. I bought one or two for a friend and they are quite good quality, with a proper bolster and a good balance. For this price point, I think they represent a good value for money for the home cook.

**Q: What is the edge angle of this knife?**
A: I believe it's 15 per side. Call them to verify too if you like.

**Q: is this blade serated?**
A: no, mine wasn't.  I've had this knife for pushing 11 years, love it
