Just right

I opened the box and my first thought was "I should've bought two." This seems like the perfect in between knife: about as long as a small chef knife but a more versatile shape with good weight and balance. I like the curve and point at the tip for precise cuts like destemming a tomato. The blade appears to be very sharp and based on my other four star knives, I know it will have the durability to last.

Perfect knife for a small handed person

I use this knife all the time I have small hands and it fits me perfectly. I put up all my vegetables for cooking with it.

Have used 4 star knives for more that 40 years and my originals are still doing fine I thought that this would be a good addition to the seti am used to working with a 10 inch chefs knife so this feels very light and the handle is the same size as a paring knife so is difficult for me to hold. It is a very pretty knife and sharp as a razor so I am not disappointed in the purchase and I suppose I might eventually get used to it

The blade is very thin and makes me think this a cheap copy of the excellent 4 Star set I currently own. Everytime I open the knife drawer and look at it I think, "How cheap Zwilling has gotten."
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is my new go-to knife. It’s a great size, not too big but big enough to do a lot. It’s nice and sharp, and it feels quite sturdy while also being lightweight.
I would recommend this to a friend!
