Product Description
Product Description
This set of German stainless-steel knives makes prep work easy. Peel fruit and create garnishes with the 4-inch paring knife, slice through a crusty loaf of sourdough and make neat cubes of ciabatta with the 8-inch bread knife, and chop herbs, dice onions, and mince garlic with the all-rounder 8-inch chef’s knife. This set is completed with a 9-inch honing steel and kitchen shears and is housed in a 16-slot bamboo block. TWIN Signature knives are precision stamped from a single piece of special formula stainless steel, resulting in lighter weight knives. Combined with ZWILLING’s signature ice-hardening technique, these FRIODUR® blades will stay sharper, longer. To ensure an ideal cutting angle, the sharp laser-controlled edge is finely honed and hand-finished. The ergonomic, triple-rivet handle embedded with the ZWILLING logo provides durability and balance. And these dishwasher-safe, German-made knives are conveniently easy to clean. Set includes 2.75-inch bird's beak peeling, 4-inch paring, 4.5-inch utility, 5-inch serrated utility, 6-inch utility, 7-inch hollow edge santoku, 8-inch chef’s, 8-inch bread, kitchen shears, 9-inch sharpening steel, and 16-slot bamboo block.

This knife block set carries a useful assortment of standard knives for outfitting a kitchen. The set includes a 2-1/2-inch peeling knife, a 4-inch paring knife, a 5-inch serrated utility knife, a 6-inch utility knife, and an 8-inch chef's knife, as well as a 7-inch hollow-edge santoku, an 8-inch bread knife, and a 4-1/2-inch steak knife. A 9-inch sharpening steel keeps their edges in order, and a pair of kitchen shears to snip herbs, flowers, or string is also included. Everything stores neatly in the attractive natural hardwood block.
The knives feature high-carbon, stainless-steel blades that have been stamped from one piece of metal. The edge is cut by laser for a more consistent angle on the blade and hand-honed for sharpness. Blades have also undergone Henckels's Friodur ice-hardening process, which further strengthens them and protects from discoloration. The ergonomically designed traditional-style polymer handles are securely fastened to the balanced full tangs with three rivets. Handles seamlessly encase the tangs on these knives so no food particles can ever become trapped in a gap. Twin Signature knives are all dishwasher-safe (although Henckels recommends washing by hand) and are covered by a lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

The knives are sharp, the sharpening stick woks extremely well to hone it whenever my husband decides he "needs" to sharpen a knife. The knives are so sharp that we have both accidentally cut ourselves while doing dishes.
The block for the knives is nice, but I wish I could hang it, like I have seen in some kitchens, under the cabinet. I like that the metal goes all the way through the handle, as it makes me feel like I have a good grip on the knives.
I am not a big fan of the wood they used for the block, but that is just personal preference. I would have liked a darker, heavier wood, or bamboo or something like that. Again, that's just me.
It's a little awkward for the little knives to fit in the block because the slots are a little too big, so they do not automatically align when you insert them. I have slight OCD issues, so it bothers me, but I just have to align it myself, so all the handles point in the same direction. It's an aesthetic thing really.
But I really do love my knives and the weight of them and everything.
The scissors are OK - but nowhere near as sharp as the blades.
The block is horrible. It is not obvious where the blades go because all the slots are pretty much the same width. This means that the blades flop around in the block. One of the video reviews demonstrates this. Also, the scissor placement is horrible. It's right in between the big slots and the little slots. The scissors should be off to the side. And because the scissor slot is just as loose as the other slots, the scissors 'sag' into the small blades on the bottom of the block. So, whenever you reach for the scissors or the small blades, they will get tangled.
I was willing to buy a better block and went to the Zwilling web site. Unfortunately, all their blocks have the same design. There is no block where the slots tightly fit the blades.
But the blades themselves are AWESOME! Perhaps leave them in their sleeves and put them in a drawer.
