Solid Sharp Professional

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Can't get better than this knife. Slightly scared to use it. The long tip feels intrusive. But effective in prep. Solid weight. Feels like a professional chef.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got this as a wedding gift, and it has been amazing. It is perfectly balanced and feels so good around the hand.

I’ve had Zwilling knives for years and was shocked to see how the quality has dropped. This knife is supposed to be one of their higher end offerings. It needed sharpening immediately on arrival and had some obvious machining defects on the edge. The package was beat up which made it seem cheap. The bevel on the handle seems to be a bit sharper than the other knives I have from this same line. I kind of regret choosing the brand I know over others in the same price range.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Excellent blade, interesting profile
on January 1, 2021

Frequency of use:Daily
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, the quality of the steel and the ergonomics of this knife is superb. I was maybe a little leery of the blade retention having experience with Japanese knives but it has been proving to be stellar. Many months in and I've yet found a need to sharpen, as light work on a knife steel seems to be all that is needed.
Many people are most likely attracted to the pro line for the ergonomics and they don't disappoint. This is easily my most comfortable knife, and perfectly compliments a pinch grip.
A bit on the blade profile - if you are accustomed to a traditional western style blade, or even many of the newer Japanese hybrid blades, this has a different curvature that takes a little getting used to. The curve from the point to belly is more dramatic, and the belly of the blade itself is completely flat. Rock chopping with a classic chefs knife to this will feel like you're hitting a sudden stop at the bottom of the stroke. This isn't a bad thing, but different. However I've found it is particularly well suited to tap chopping.
Overall this is a fantastic knife, the quality is top notch with great steel. If you are extremely used to a traditional chef's knife blade shape maybe look for the version of this knife with that blade profile (there is one). Used multiple times daily for 4 months.
