Great Option
on July 17, 2020

Frequency of use:Daily
The Gourmet 8" chef's knife is a great addition to my culinary collection. I love the weight, and the full tang which makes the knife durable enough to cut through hard items like carrots, potato and winter squash.
This is my go to everyday knife. Great for chopping, slicing,and mincing. Comfortable grip, and nice balance. This knife makes preparing food effortless, and has really made the time in the kitchen much easier and more enjoyable. Great investment.

Excellent Choice!

This knife is being used to teach a younger family member to cook. (We have a wood-handle version of this knife from the 1980’s still in use. Upper knife in photo.)
The new handle material on this item is
much more comfortable to use!

Stamped instead of forged
on March 31, 2020

Frequency of use:Daily
If you're looking for a stamped knife which is cut from a single sheet of metal as opposed to a heavier forged bolster (steel that's been pressed and formed into a shape) then this is a great choice for you. It is made in Germany from high quality corrosion resistant steel. It will retain it's sharp edge longer and has a full tang (the steel continues through to the end of the handle) which provides a nice weight distribution and feel in your hand.

Best knife ever made

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ve tried Dalstrong and Wustoff, but Zwilling chef’s knife 8” beats them all. Perfectly balanced, sharp, and very comfortable to use.

Stamped vs. Forged
on March 24, 2020
Posted by: bulldog mom
I started with this stamped Chef knife. It's made in Germany, sharp comfortable, not too heavy. I have since upgraded to the Zwillling Pro chef. It is also made in Germany, forged, very comfortable, a little more hefty. I guess it all depends upon which feels best in your hand.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I received this as a gift in the full set, and now I’m gifting my mom the set piece by piece. I have an average size hand for a woman, and I cook a LOT. I have had knife sets in the past, also by the same brand - however these ones seem to fit and feel extremely well weighted and balanced in my hand. The smaller knives (the paring knife, vegetable knife, and the 6” slicer) feel like an extension of my arm. I’ve literally never loved a knife more than these. I am ecstatic about them. So yea, if you’re considering it.. do it. I think you’ll be very pleased! Definitely get all of them. Even the little baguette cutter knife is such a nice petite size but big enough for the job.

Great knife for the price!
on April 6, 2020
Posted by: kammya108
I am new to cooking, so I was so happy to be able to find a knife made in Germany that was in my price range. I am so glad that this knife is lighter than some of the other knives I've used because I find it easier to use. I love the classic design and think this is a great beginner knife!
