8-inch German Chef's Knife by ZWILLING Professional S, Factory-Made with Special Formula Steel, Dishwasher Safe

Hand-finished by skilled artisans, the knives boast a laser-controlled edge that is exceptionally sharp. The sturdy bolster serves as a finger guard, ensuring the right balance while cutting. Crafted from a single piece of solid steel, the knives with three rivet handles provide optimal balance and safe handling.

Professional chefs globally rely on the tradition and quality of these remarkable knives. The classic French chef's knife features a wide blade and a curved cutting edge, perfect for smoothly chopping through various ingredients. The 8-inch blade is suitable for most cooks, with the option of a 6-inch knife for those with smaller hands and a 10-inch knife for those with larger hands.

The Pro S line stands out with its classic three-rivet handles, distinct from Henckels's other quality collections like TwinStar, Five Star, and Four Star. The Pro S handles are heavier, making its knives less weight-forward. The steel used in the Pro S line is identical to that of the Five and Four Star lines.

These knives undergo high-tech welding processes to combine three steel types, resulting in a seemingly single piece with distinct characteristics: a hard edge, a strong, stain-resistant bolster, and a stain- and corrosion-resistant tang. While traditionalists prefer single-piece forging for strength, Henckels asserts that the invisible welds are actually stronger than the steel itself.

Although the chef's knife is dishwasher-safe, handwashing is recommended for longevity. This line of knives, known as the J.A. Henckels Twin Professional S, features high-quality construction and classic three-rivet styling. The knives are admired by both professional chefs and home cooks of all skill levels.

Manufactured in Germany, the knives are precision forged from a single piece of high-carbon, no-stain steel, adhering to the all-new Sigmaforge standard. This process ensures improved quality consistency, lasting sharpness, and perfect geometry. The knives also utilize J.A. Henckels Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance and enhanced cutting-edge retention.

The ergonomic handle design of the Twin Pro S knives provides comfort and control during use. With durable Novodur handles bonded to the full tang, the knives boast impeccable balance and safety with a super bolster. The laser-controlled edge maintains sharpness and blade angle consistency, making these knives a reliable and durable choice for all cutting tasks.

The J.A. Henckels Twin Professional S knives offer a variety of options for different cooking tasks, from paring and bread knives to santoku and chef’s knives. With a focus on quality manufacturing and precise cutting, these knives are an essential addition to any kitchen.
