Detail
Summary
Everyday chopping, slicing and mincing are faster and more efficient when you use this classic Japanese-style knife. Echoing the shape of a traditional cleaver, the wide, ultra-sharp blade is ideal for prepping everything from fresh vegetables, fruits and herbs to meats and poultry. Hollow-ground indentations on the blade reduce friction and minimize sticking. The wide blade is also great for scooping prepped ingredients into your soup pot or salad bowl.
- Precision forged using Zwilling’s Sigmaforge process, resulting in an exceptionally hard yet flexible blade.
- Zwilling’s Friodur ice-hardening technique results in a harder, sharper blade that is corrosion resistant and highly elastic.
- Precise lasers are used to ensure each blade’s edge is at the optimal cutting angle for maximum sharpness.
- Arched bolster perfectly supports the thumb for ultimate comfort, safety and precise handling. Also allows the full length of the edge to be sharpened, from tip to end.
- The sleek ABS resin handle is triple riveted to the blade and contoured for a secure, comfortable grip.
- Made in Germany by Zwilling J.A. Henckels, founded in 1731.

I am educated.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an avid knife collector, I was always told that I could never be satisfied with the performance of a commercial grade kitchen knife. The steel used in the production product would always be substandard. As I am used to M4 and S90V the "stainless steel" that was used in otc kitchen knives was never going to make me happy. Well..................I stand educated1!! The edge has lasted me a good while. It is similar to my VG 10 blades. It is softer that many of my sporting blades, but I am not planning to use it for bush crafting. Within its intended purpose it is fine. Simply use a strop every other time to keep it great. The ergonomics of the knife are perfect for me. I love the balance especially. You have a new customer.

Top three knife in my kitchen
Super solid knife, this is now my go to for most chopping (vegetables) and some slicing (leeks, seared tuna) duties in the kitchen. It arrived sharp and I'm keeping it that way with a ceramic rod before most uses.

Created accordians
Hello. This knife came to me today and I love the simple design and compact style. This will create quick work out of any large task chopping Veggies. The edge was so sharp I could make paper thin slices of carrots. However upon further inspection of my new tool I found there to be a fault in the shaping of the knife where it has a rather long gap that leave herbs and scallions attached. Creating what my boss calls, accordians.
