Great little knife

Product arrived sharp out of the box, super light weight and thin blade should be excellent for light prep work. I can see this becoming a go to knife in our kitchen.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The blade is fine. A bit thin for my liking, but I like the size and knuckle clearance. The handle is way too small. I have small to medium sized hands, and it feels like I have very little blade control at times. Very unstable without a firm grip on the blade itself. Overall it’s somewhat of a disappointment. I wish I hadn’t ordered it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I'm thrilled!

Just received this and had to try it immediately. What a delight! It is perfect when the traditional size is too large. The quality is A+ as usual. I'm thrilled. Thank you Zwilling.

I loved this knife had it for 15- yrs. till I accidentally, I’m guessing, threw it in the trash. I already bought two more, as I have the butcher block full I got yrs. Ago. Best knife’s ever! The two I just bought are great but I know I will miss the one I accidentally threw away. It’s at a great sale price but then you ad shipping etc.charges and I can’t afford anymore. Would love to buy them but kinda high for me. Ty
