25 years ago I inherited a partial set of 4 star knives my folks bought in the 70s. My wife replaced the missing knives with Pampered Chef ones and after 25 years they need replacing. So I bought Zwilling 4 star because after 45 years, my old Knives are still sharp and in good condition.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We already have these knives and have had them for over 20 years. My mom is living with us and because her and I often cook at the same time, we bought another set so we both could use these great knives.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice knife set. This is my J.A.Henckels purchase and I love them so far. Very sharp and cuts very easily and smoothly. Will purchase more and replace all of my knives.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had these real old knives and after I switched over, changed my life! Everything was so much easier to cut through. Great product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Straight out of the box, the feel of the knives are light years ahead of any "big box store" knife sets. Super sharp. I'll never buy cheap knives again.
This set is the best combination of knife shapes and sizes. These three knives are all you need to make a terrific meal. And given their quality, they will be all you need until you decide to take a deeper dive into cooking and prepping. The chef's knife will do most of the work. The serrated knife takes on the task of slicing crusty breads and tender tomatoes - anything with a tough skin and soft interior. And the paring knife, it cores and peels.
There’s a reason the Four Star line has been a part of Zwilling’s lineup forever. It was designed with professionals in mind, so the focus was on safety, comfort and durability. The ‘grippy’ polypropylene handle is proportionate to the blade and the work - therefore no excess weight. The blade steel and method of construction is proprietary and at the forefront of technology. The blade can both take a beating and hold an edge, ideal for daily use and hard work.
Although dishwasher safe, all knives perform and look better if they are hand washed. I’ve had a Four Star in my collection for decades. And it still looks almost new.
