JA Henckels are the best you could get in a store. I go up against Henckels' quality every working day of my life, and eighty percent of the time, I win -- by what Cutco can do, compared directly with Henckels. Henckels doesn't offer Cutco's kind of guarantee, either. I suppose they think it's a little too hard to manage across an ocean.

Cutco guarantees, without needing you to jump through hoops of any sort, its sharpness -- forever; against defective manufacture -- forever; a half price replacement guarantee if you've damaged your Cutco -- forever. Only guarantee with a time limit is a two-week trial period where the customer decides whether he'd rather keep the knives or his money. We cheerfully call it the Think-About-It Guarantee.

Henckels' guarantee isn't that good: against rusting only. Heck, it's made of stainless, it's already not supposed to rust.
