This is a budget line. It's not a twin line, which is better steel.
For the price it's not a bad deal, just know what you're getting.

Very good price, but yes, this would be the bottom of the Henckel's line. Almost without exception, if a knife has a celebrity endorsement, it is going to be a below-average department store price filler. The exception being the expensive Thomas Keller Cangshan collection, which is pretty good

After trying many knifes over several decades, at the moment, 10$ 3-pack from ikea is the most bang-for-the-buck knife set. will they last a 100 years, No, but moving to a new 10$ knife set once in few years has proven better to the expensive alternatives that casts 100s of dollars and still need yearly sharpening

This is a terrible hot take. A quality knife will stay sharper longer and will have better weight distribution. Cutting is much more pleasant with a high quality knife. A $3 knife will keep an edge until you actually use it.

These still appear to be pretty good quality knives for the price. The tine construction looks very good.

I have a set of 20 year old Henckels and I use them every day. They still look new and keep a nice edge. The construction of these looks similar.

Well AI says it's forged. Amazon answer says the same. Not sure if it's accurate but apparently not bottom of the brand if true.
