Amazon.com Review
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. This Opus pattern features fork and spoon handles that turn up slightly at their ends and knife handles that curve to the right, contributing a contemporary look. 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, soupspoon, 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

Summary: Great set 2010-01-09
Comment: This is a great set that everyone seems to love. They are a medium weight which is nice for our older relatives. They have a great sleek design and have cleaned up well in out dishwasher every time. The knives have a great curve to them and cut very well. I am very pleased and couldn't ask for more in a fork!!

Summary: Very nice flatware 2009-12-24
Comment: This is a great set of flatware, if you appreciate style and functionality. These look upscale and expensive but for the number of pieces you get for the price, they are a great value that should last a long time. I like the sleek style, but if you have larger hands, the handles may feel too small. I didn't think I would ever need the serving pieces which are included, but they actually have come in handy. Overall, I am quite satisfied with this set and would recommend them to anyone looking for flatware with a unique, yet sophisticated style.

Summary: Great flatwear, great price 2009-12-09
Comment: I love this flatware. I was able to get it on sale and I had a coupon, so it was an amazing deal. It has held up nicely for the 6 or so months that I have had it. I later figured out that both of my sisters have the same set, and both of them have had the silverware for between 5 and 10 years. This is a great product and even at $100, they are a great deal.

Summary: great, except in the dishwasher 2009-10-29
Comment: I have had good experiences with Henckels in the past, and when I needed new flatware this time I looked at all the Henckels styles and handled them to check the weight and balance. I liked the Opus the best. It's simple and classy and feels substantial and well-balanced. I have used it every day for six weeks with no issues with staining or knife halves becoming separated, as mentioned in some older reviews here. The one caution I would give is that it can be a small pain loading this flatware in the dishwasher. The handles on the forks and spoons are narrow enough to poke all the way through the holes in the bottom of the silverware basket. So forks and spoons have to go in heads down, handles up. With the knives, the handle is thicker so it will not poke through, but the blade is thin enough so it pokes through. So knives must go in the silverware basket the opposite way from the rest. I put a few pieces in wrong every time and have to stick my hand in the basket of dirty flatware to pull them out. Just a little annoying....

Summary: Simple, classic, modern 2009-06-09
Comment: We bought two sets to replace an old Victorian looking set that was never really my style. We are very pleased with them. One of the special features is the sharpness of the dinner knives. They cut through steak with such ease! That is a pleasure-not to have to put out utilitarian looking steak knives!! My only complaint is a very minute one, they are beautiful and shiny when you take them out of the dishwasher, but as soon as you touch them you see prints. I find myself shining them up before I set them down as if I were polishing silver. That aside, I am very happy with them.
