Henckels’ Self-Sharpening Knife Set Chops ‘Like a Dream,’ and It’s 68% Off Right Now

It includes a 3.5-inch paring knife, steak knives, chef’s knife, and more.

It not only takes less effort to slice and dice with a freshly sharpened knife, but it’s also much safer. Dull blades are one of the leading causes of kitchen injuries . And while taking the time and effort to manually sharpen your set might feel like a big task, we found a knife block that does the work for you.

The Henckels Forged Accent 16-piece set includes so many sizes like steak knives and a 3.5-inch paring knife for peeling and mincing. The blades come razor sharp and stay that way thanks to the individual slots, which sharpen the knives every time you pull them out or put them back into place. As if that weren’t reason enough to hit “add to cart,” the set is also 68% off, which saves you a whopping $426.

In addition to the paring knife and 4-inch steak knives, the block comes with a 5-inch serrated utility knife, 5-inch santoku knife, 8-inch bread knife, 8-inch carving knife, 8-inch chef’s knife, and kitchen shears — which can be used for slicing, dicing, and chopping. While not all of the block slots are self-sharpening (serrated designs don’t need it), the ones that do feature built-in ceramic honing wheels.

The blades are crafted from a high-quality German stainless steel that’s durable, long-lasting, and offers superior precision. The forged bolster construction, which means it’s made from a single bar of steel, creates a sleek transition from the handle to the blade. Speaking of the handle, it has a curved and triple-rivet design that’s easy and comfortable to hold. And while handwashing the knives is recommended, they are dishwasher-safe too.

Shoppers praised the block set’s impressive quality and aesthetic. One customer said the blades are “very sharp” and “the knives are gorgeous,” adding that “they cut like a dream.” Another reviewer, who worked in restaurants for over 50 years, said they are “the best” they’ve used.

A third person said they bought the Forged Accent self-sharpening block as their second Henckels set. The first lasted over 27 years and is still “in great shape,” which speaks to the quality and lifespan.
