Henckels Four Star Wood 6 pc Knife Block Set 1036187

The Henckels Four Star Wood 6 pc Knife Block Set marks a milestone in one of the most trusted cutlery lines in the world, celebrating 50 years of performance, precision, and reliability. This limited-edition collection elevates the iconic Four Star series with refined materials, sustainable design choices, and a modern presentation built for today’s kitchen.

At the core of every knife is Henckels’ proprietary special formula stainless steel, perfected through nearly 300 years of craftsmanship. Each blade is precision forged from a single piece of steel using SIGMAFORGE® construction, delivering exceptional strength, balance, and control. The blades are then ice-hardened using the signature FRIODUR® process, improving hardness, edge retention, and resistance to staining and chipping. With a Rockwell hardness of approximately 57, these knives are built for long-lasting sharpness and dependable everyday use.

Every blade is precision honed and laser-controlled for a fine, consistent edge that performs effortlessly through a wide range of kitchen tasks. From slicing crusty bread to finely mincing herbs or trimming proteins, the Four Star Wood collection is engineered for clean, controlled cutting with minimal effort.

The handles bring a fresh evolution to the Four Star legacy. Crafted from responsibly sourced FSC-certified Kotibe wood, each handle features a unique natural grain pattern, giving every knife a distinct look and warm, organic feel. Kotibe hardwood is valued for its durability and moisture resistance, adding both strength and character to the design while maintaining the ergonomic comfort the Four Star line is known for.

The FSC-certified oak knife block completes the set with both style and function. Designed with a modern magnetic system and removable bristle insert, it adapts to different knife shapes and storage needs. Strong magnets on each side allow for efficient use of space, while the flexible interior holds chef’s knives, utility blades, kitchen shears, and honing steels securely and accessibly. It’s a practical countertop solution that balances organization with visual appeal.

This 6-piece set includes a 4" paring knife, 5.5" prep knife, 5" serrated utility knife, 8" bread knife, 8" chef’s knife, and a multi-functional wood block.

Dishwasher safe for convenience, though handwashing is recommended to preserve blade quality and finish, this set reflects a blend of heritage craftsmanship and modern sustainability. Made in Germany, it stands as a refined evolution of a proven classic.
