Are the knives sharp enough to cut steak?

They are very sharp and cut steak well. I was skeptical because of their light weight, but they have been very satisfactory.

They are sharp for non steak knives, so you could use for most steaks if they are not too thick or tough

We typically use steak knives but depending on the cut of meat, they would work. The filets and better cuts should be fine.

No Melanie. They are sharp only on one side, and they are not serrated - at least the set I purchased. Non serrated does a better job of slicing cleanly on some meats. They also come in handy as an extra paring knife. They are aluminum and are best washed by hand as dishwasher detergent will make the handles turn a darker color and not be as smooth. Having said all that - - - I absolutely LOVE these knives. Excellent value.

It is hard to tell so I guess I would have to say no. It would be best to contact Rada Cutlery Company - they are in the USAI have several pieces of theirs and really like the quality of the knives plus they retain their sharp cutting edge. A friend told me about them several years ago - the knives are better than my top quality (expensive) ones

I would say no, for 2 reasons - the blades aren't super sharp and they are too far apart to mince finely.

Knives are not steak knives, I have to provide steak knives when that is served. It'll provide a cut for other food such as chicken and tender meats, veggies, salads, etc. to cut up into bite sized pieces. Hope this helps you.

I would say yes but not without seriously dulling the blade. I'd suggest a different knife for that. Still a good knife though.

Don't know. I found the knives to be lightweight and too flexible. I know these are rated well but they didn't match my expectations or raters comments. I gave them to my daughter and fell back on my Chicago steak knives.

Yes they are sharp. I have had mine since may with no issues, a matter a fact I just used them before responding to this. Great product

Hello, Yes the knives are very sharp and elegant. We never had any complaints.

The steak knives have small serations, the edge on the butter knives are what you'd expect from them. I've never had a problem getting through a steak with the Henckels steak knives.

I agree with the other person that answered your question. This is a very nice set of knifes.

I have not used the knife as of yet but it looks like they would work. Hope this helps you.

Alison...yes, they are. In fact I now use them instead of a steak knife. We are VERY satisfied with the set.

Not in my experience. I do not keep my kitchen knives razor-sharp but they are sharpened enough to easily cut through chicken, etc. Have never had an issue.

Yes. These are terrific knives. I bought a second set, I was so pleased with the first set. They are sharp, and remain sharp, so be careful. No problem in the dishwasher. They come out clean and fine.

Very. These steak knives are the best we've ever had. They are very sharp. The only J.A. Henckels knives that had a round point were the butter knifes, also sharp. The paring knives are the sharpest and one of the best performing knives we've ever had.
