Henckels Forged Premio Knife Block Set

This set is designed to cover every culinary task, typically including a chef's knife, bread knife, santoku, utility knife, paring knife, and a set of steak knives, along with kitchen shears and a sharpening steel. It provides a complete foundation for both daily meal prep and more complex recipes.

While the stainless steel construction is durable, we strongly recommend hand-washing these knives. Dishwashers can dull the blades over time and the high heat can damage the handles, so washing by hand is the best way to maintain their sharpness and longevity.

The set includes a sharpening steel, which is essential for realigning the blade edge between uses. For long-term maintenance, you should have the knives professionally sharpened or use a pull-through sharpener once or twice a year, depending on how frequently you cook.

The natural wood block is low-maintenance. Simply wipe it down with a damp cloth to remove dust or debris, and avoid submerging it in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, which could warp or damage the wood finish.

Yes, the high-quality stainless steel is designed to be corrosion-resistant. However, to prevent spotting or rust, it is important to dry the knives immediately after washing rather than letting them air dry in a wet environment.
