This knife is one of the best products I have purchased as of late. The balance and superior feel of this knife puts it into a class of its own. Other than an occasional pass over a steel it has maintained a great cutting edge. The small size enables you to easily tackle many small jobs that a larger cooks knife is just not practical for. Due to the quality and price I don't place these in the dishwasher. But this is a small price to pay for a knife that I will use for years to come and pass on to my children.

I received my utility knife several weeks ago ande was so pleased with it that I ordered one more for myself and some for my family members. I first noticed the weight and suspension of the knife and felt it to be excellent. I find that when carving and chopping that is important. I also like the length of the 16 inch blade for all my uses.Read Best Reviews of J.A. Henckels International Classic 6-Inch Stainless-Steel Utility Knife Here

It makes me upset when hearing people complain that a pricey Henckels is not as sharp as a $3.5 knife! It doesn't matter how much you paid for a knife, it needs to be sharpened! The difference between a good and a bad knife is the degree of sharpness it can hold and the duration it will last. A good knife should never be serrated so it can be sharped. A knife of $3.5 will never be as sharp due to the material used.My guess is that some people are comparing a over-used, never sharpened Henckels with a newly bought $3.5 knife. The edge of a knife is a singular point and the sharpness is only determined by the way it is sharpened and the steel composition. A cheap knife after sharpening will go dull quickly and settle to a stable sharpness (much less shaper than a higher end knife). That's why you will see knifes have difficulties cutting through tomato and pork skins. A good knife with well maintained edge can last at least for a few weeks and even that is far better than a newly sharpened cheap knife. A few strokes of sharpening will restore its full luster in no time.
A over-used Henckels can be just as bad as a cheap knife unless being taken care of. Whoever thinks an expensive Henckels doesn't need sharpening deserves the suffering and frustration of using a $3.5 knife when cutting through onions, tomatoes and chicken skins.
