[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our best wedding gift 27 years ago was a beautiful set of Henckels knives. I have heavily used them and finally the serrated knife’s wooden handle began to crack. Just replaced it with closest version I could find. I am sad to see how flimsy this new knife is in comparison. The thickness and weight of the blade is noticeably lesser than the original. On a positive note, the knife is quite sharp and perhaps some people prefer a lighter weight knife. I imagine that this new knife will never last as long as it’s predecessor and I’m sure that is by design.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for contacting ZWILLING! Thank you for your review and for your feedback
Our Twin Signature knives are precision stamped from a single piece of German steel, resulting in lighter weight knives that do not compromise sharpness. We are sorry over time our knives have evolved to accommodate the needs of not only our customers that are chefs but everyday consumers. We have incorporated ergonomic design with lightweight materials to make it easier on the wrist during long time cutting and dicing. There is no difference in quality. However, we do have a heavier series in weight and thicker handle called Zwilling Pro. The Bolster is angled. Or the Zwilling Professional “S” Both series are heavier Forged Knives
We hope this helps! Regards, Zwilling

Cut a sandwich without destroying it. Slice a tomato without crushing it. Those are the promises of this knife. Sometimes only a serrated knife will do, and those are the two most popular reasons to get this utility knife. Others include cutting peaches, pears, baked sweet potatoes and cakes and cupcakes (of course!).
The Signature line of stamped knives is made Germany from one of Zwilling's top quality steels. These knives are made with German craftsmanship and precision. Lighter than forged knives, this line is very popular. The sculpted handles fold into the palm of most people’s hands comfortably. The steel is strong, stable and holds an edge well. They can be and should be sharpened regularly. I recommend hand washing so they always look like new; but they are dishwasher safe.

Great Multipurpose Knife

The serrated utility is the go-to knife for most people. It's so versatile that it can be used for bread or rolls, tomatoes or oranges, meats and cheeses, plus don't forget slicing through a package of sausage.
It's made from high carbon German steel in Germany. It's very sharp, will stay sharp but is light and flexible; perfect for everyday use.

This is my go to knife! Love the way it cuts through tomatoes, onions, oranges, lemon, limes, anything hard on the outside and soft on the inside. Is a stamped one piece construction which makes it durable and light weight. Glad I gave in and purchased this kitchen helper, my bread knife was too large and bulky for these smaller items. German Steel is the best, and Zwilling's special formula is one of the best in the industry.

perfect for tomatoes

I love fresh tomatoes and wanted a good knife to cut them with. I went with this serrated utility because the sharp blade cuts easily through the skin without crushing the delicate insides. The German made stainless steel blade is very sharp and durable. The handle is nice and light and is very comfortable in my hand. Its also great for bagels and citrus fruit.

A “utility” upgrade!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sometimes when you use something frequently, you run the risk of losing it. Well that’s what happened to the utility knife that came with my block set. So when I replaced it, I decided to upgrade to the twin signature version. I should have done that ages ago! If you use a knife daily, you appreciate the ergonomics of the handle

Perfect for Breads

This serrated knife is very good to cut breads. Very good for home made breads. If you make wider breads as my mom do, you will like to have a bigger than this 5-inch knife.

Great serrated blade
on March 31, 2020
Posted by: Niner2015
This is a really nice stamped serrated utility knife. The steel is really durable for a stamped knife since the high carbon stainless steel was ice hardened, helping give the knife a longer and sharper edge than most stamped blades. Perfect thin blade for slicing fruit, meat and bread rolls. The handle really contours nicely in my hand as well.
