Can someone list the pieces in the set and their size? A picture of all the pieces layed out or the back of the box if it has all the knives would be great. Thanks!

It's just a smaller set and block. Same knives. Which are AWESOME! Comfortable to hold, superior quality, hold their sharpness better than other brands.

I see someone replied for the dimensions. I wrote a review about preventing the rods from splitting and bending. As of today, I have yet to bend one or see any shavings coming out of my block using the care I described. I love mine still! It looks great on my counter... If it helps, for large knives I have a chef knife, a santoku, a bread knife, a utility knive and two slicing knives. I have 4 smaller knives, two of which are paring knives. I also have two pairs of kitchen shears. I wouldn't put anything else in it. The largest blades do stick out a little but it's never been an issue. There is enough room that things wiggle in easily.

Not sure about what you are asking. I can tell you we love the knifes. Very sharp and hold an edge.

Haven personally use the knives to cut, but they are not the usual jagged knives type...from the feel of it...it look pretty sharp! (almost cut my fingers while admiring it), hope this helps!

Sorry Kim I was talking about a set of J.A Henkle knives set I purchased. The 45 piece Hostess Set is great! Nice balance and weight. The set is worth every penny.

Yes - there are two extra knives in the package that don't fit in the display and the wooden block counts as one of the pieces. Hope this helps!

I bought it for my son for Christmas, he said there's 6 steak knives, bread knife, paring knife, and a chopper knife. Hope that's helpful.

I have over a dozen in mine - two 8-inch chef's, two 8-inch santoku, one six-inch santoku, one six-inch boning knife, eight steak knives, two paring knives, and one cheese knife. The block is great if you have a lot of shorter knives, especially the kinds you almost never sharpen. My larger, sharper knives have decimated the "fingers".

Did you buy this without seeing it first? I would love some impressions of the set.(NVM, I saw your other thread. Please post back once you have it.)

I finally found the notation on the knives. It is 18/10 and is an absolutely beautiful set with a very good weight and cleans up beautifully in the dishwasher.

If you lay the complete set of 4 in a single line, you could get 60 or so thin knives in them. However, I don't have 60 thin knives so I put the tip of the blades in one section and the blade closest to the handle on another section. I also put the knives in every other slot so there's plenty of room for the ones with large-handles. I tried many ways to configure the set until I found the best placement of the knives I have. I love the set. I think it saves so much space and is much safer than just laying them in the drawer (and who has space for that!?)

I don't remember. I bought each of my 3 boys one of these and none of the knifes have survived. They are cheaply made

Hello! First of all, this set is wonderful. The set we purchased comes with; a French Chef's knife, an Old-Fashioned Butcher's knife, a Slicer knife, a super Parer knife, a regular Paring knife, a Steak/Utility knife, a Vegetable Peeler and a Carving Fork. We also purchased the set of 6 Steak Knives and the cutlery Quick Edge Sharpener. Love them all. Needed to replace the Butcher's Knife with no questions asked and had no problems returning for a free replacement. We HIGHLY recommend this product because they are made in the U.S.A. with pride and they stand behind their products. Enjoy them like I do!!!!

Hello, sorry for the inattention. The knives arrived well within the time limit laid down. Are great, wonderful and I recommend the product. I'm with them almost two months and whenever I prepare the food, use them. Best regards, Luis Antonio Olimpio dos Santos.

From the description I am reading here - J.A. Henckels International Forged Premio 18-Piece Block Set It looks like the description is showing "4 Steak Knives" when in fact the set comes with 8 Steak Knives as pictured.I would like to add - despite some posts saying some of the knives could be a little sharper when delivered new, please use extreme caution when using these knives new out of the box. They are VERY SHARP!!
