The Manor Flatware set marries sleek, modern design with Henckels world-class quality. This heavy gauge, 18/10 stainless steel service for eight features polished handles and a rounded fluid curves. Set includes 5-piece place settings for eight, (Includes: Knife, fork, spoon, salad fork and teaspoon) plus a 5-piece hostess set.
Heavy enough for everyday use and elegant enough for company, this flatware suits any occasion and then goes into the dishwasher. It's made of durable 18/10 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish. Substantial length (9-inch knives), width, and heft qualify it as European size--the kind of flatware that might be found in an upscale bistro. Teardrop-shaped spoons and strikingly tapered handles contribute a contemporary look to this Manor pattern. The 45 pieces break down into complete table settings for 8 plus a 5-piece "hostess" set of serving pieces. A single setting consists of knife, fork, soup spoon, salad fork, and teaspoon. The hostess set consists of 6-inch sugar spoon, 7-inch butter knife, 8-1/2-inch serving fork, 8-1/4-inch serving spoon, and 8-1/4-inch pierced serving spoon. Properly cared for, this flatware should last a lifetime and beyond. --Fred Brack

Nice overall set:
This is our 2nd set of Henckels flatware. The 1st set we purchased about 5 years ago and used it as our everyday set. This set was purchased to replace the 1st one and it is nice as well. If you are looking for a show set this is not it but if you want daily quality use, you can't go wrong.
Excellent Silverware:
I had 2 sets for 2 years, and now I bought another one for big dinners.
We are very pleased with the design, the weight and the durability.
Scratches very easily:
I bought this set from Chef's Catalog 5 years ago. I really like the style, but I have to say the quality has been disappointing. I do not own a dishwasher, and haven't since I owned the set, and it is totally scratched and does not look very good. It is hard to believe it is 18/10 stainless steel. My mother's Betty Crocker sets have stood up much longer and better than Henckels--though the fact it is made in China definitely puts a different spin on it. I wouldn't buy it again.
Lighter weight than expected - this is Henckels International (made in China), not the regular Henckels brands:
The flatware is attactive and we appreciate the larger size since my family has large hands. The pieces are not as heavy as I expected and not as well balanced as I have come to expect from Henckels. Amazon does its customers a disservice in not disclosing that this is the Henckels International brand that is made in China rather than the regular Henckels brand that is made in Germany. I was dissppointed to find it was Henckels International - the quality is just not as good as their two twin brands.... more info
