Customer Reviews of J.A. Henckels Twingrip 4-Piece Colored Paring Knives
Customer Rating: Summary: Good knives Comment: I like these knives in the kitchen as they have fairly sharp, thin blades. The different shapes are really handy. I especially like the round ended knife for caning and cleaning fresh vegetables. We have used the knives for over a month with no signs of dulling or damage--just throw them in the dishwasher. Customer Rating: Summary: I love these knives! Comment: There was a set of these at work, so I knew before I ordered that I'd love them. They're light, comfortable, cut beautifully, and have convenient color-coded handles so you can grab the correct one out of the block. Love 'em! Customer Rating: Summary: great knife set - terrific in the kitchen and also a very suitable gift Comment: This set has been a lovely addition to my kitchen. Whenever I need a paring knife, I am always so happy to find these in the drawer. They are sharp, comfortable to hold in the hand, a good assortment of different blade shapes, and also bright and cheerful with their colorful handles. I keep ordering more sets to give my friends when they have wedding showers or for a housewarming gift. For practical, everyday use, I really recommend these knives. Customer Rating: Summary: Love them!! Comment: 3rd set I have ordered. Stay sharp and very easy to use. Had to order this set so I could find a knife for me to use. Family grabs others, so I never can find one when I need it. Hopefully, these are mine!! Customer Rating: Summary: Size and brand confusion Comment: These knives are very sharp and sturdy. In addition to all the other reviews, I wanted to point out a few things that may not be apparent prior to purchasing: 1. The handles are all the same size and length for all four knives. If you're used to handles that are about the same length as the blade, this may come as a surprise. It's not a bad thing; it just takes some getting used to (especially with the smallest curved blue knife.) 2. The blade is on the opposite side of what a novice might first think. (I don't know why, but many people think the curved side of the blade is the sharp side. It isn't. Don't cut your fingers.) 3. There are two versions of this color four-piece paring knife set. One is made by J.A. Henckels (the higher quality brand made only in Germany) and the other by Henckels International (the value brand made in China.) They are not the same set of knives, but they look almost identical and come in similar packaging. I noticed that some of the reviewers had some negative comments, and I presume that they might have mistakenly been referring to the Henckels International version, widely available at Target, or possibly one of the many copycat versions not made by Henckels at all. Hope this note is helpful for those looking to purchase the right set of paring knives. Happy cooking!

Manufacturer's lifetime warranty. Choosing Appliance -> Knives The importance of high quality knives can't be stressed enough! Buy the best you can and expect to spend some serious money. It is better to buy a couple of excellent knives and slowly add to your collection rather than buying an entire set of low quality knives. Start with a chef knife and paring knife. You will also want to buy a sharpening steel. Choosing Appliance -> Taps Dual-flow mixers provide independent hot, cold or mixed water after leaving the end of the spout. They can be deck-mounted on the sink or pillar/bridge-mounted for a more traditional look. Alternatively, choose a monobloc tap, which is a single-hole fitting that usually has two handles for hot and cold water supply. J.A.
