I love Henckels Knives. Kitchen Knives. My favorite is a nine inch chefs knife I bought over a couple of decades ago.
The balance and feel of it . . . so good.
Once upon a time, a decade or so back... I pulled my old 'grocery store butcher knife', out and tried to use it. Not a good feeling. I compared it to that 'huge' (much larger but oh-so-sweet in my hands) Henckels and tossed that old piece of crap in the trash.
By the way, my Mom loved her Henckels paring knife. (Which I had bought her for Christmas one year.)
Zim.
