This set was a gift to our son. I do not know all that was included but I know he loves the set.

The description given by Amazon states, "This set includes an 8inch slicer, 8-Inch chef's knife, 7-Inch santoku, 5.5-Inch boning knife, 4.5-Inch utility knife, 3.5-Inch paring knife and kitchen shears in black block." I checked this against what is in my kitchen block and this was accurate when I bought my set last year.

This is a retail packaged set of 8. There is no individual or 4 piece version of this knife available from the manufacturer.

The best answer I can give is to go to the Ginsu site, and I believe they describe the different uses for each of the knives. Basically, in my unprofessional opinion, the selection is: 4 steak/dinner sharp, very useable knives, one great smallish serrated knife which I use for everything, one paring knife, one med side all-purpose knife, and one large meat knife and one large vegetable chopping knife.

They are all in the description except for the 8 steak knives; 3-inch Parer, 5-inch Serrated Utility, 6-inch Utility, 7-inch Hollow Edge Santoku, 8-inch Chef, 8-inch Bread, 5.5-inch - this is 15 knives; then there are the shears, the honing rod, and the wood block to make up 18 pieces.

Don't think any knives are "missing"...instead, the block has spaces for additional knives. We added a Santoku knife since we perfer it. Still have 4 add'l slots that I suppose would be good for specialty blades or other size blades.

I am far from an expert with knives but the set includes Steak, 2 large heavy knives. A serrated that works magic on bread. A small curved paring - super sharp, longer cutting knives. all have Awesome balance

From the description I am reading here - J.A. Henckels International Forged Premio 18-Piece Block Set It looks like the description is showing "4 Steak Knives" when in fact the set comes with 8 Steak Knives as pictured.I would like to add - despite some posts saying some of the knives could be a little sharper when delivered new, please use extreme caution when using these knives new out of the box. They are VERY SHARP!!

The set I got was complete in that it had all of the knives listed on the package but there are still open spots on the knife block. I bought a cleaver, 8" carving knife and 8" Hollow Edge to fill out the block.

There are no steak knives. I'm not sure why they list them in the description. The set includes service for twelve of the five utensils pictured, plus the 5 serving utensils listed.

Yes. You get 3 of them and a set of steak knives and a fillet knife. I love mine, too.

4 knives. 1 santuko, 1 serrated, both larger knives 6" blade on each. The other two are smaller serrated, one would qualify as a parting knife. A good deal if you just need something for now and the next year. I don't expect mine to last much longer than 2 years because of quality and construction

I have about 10 knives in mine, ranging from a large butcher knife, down to steak knives. It depends on the size of the blades on your knives. Hope this helps!

I believe the covers for the four knives are included in the final count.As in, 4 knives, 4 covers, 1 peeler.
