Longer than standard 8" chefs knife, this monster maintains perfect balance. Zwilling's centuries-proven German stainless steel along with angled bolster for firm pinch grip is ideal.
This is a perfect example of a perfect knife from a perfect company! THis has become my favorite chef knife because of the deep curve on the blade. The handle and the curved bolster are excellent as well and sit beautifully in you hand but that deep curve on the blade sold me on this guy. I am tall so having the ability to really rock my blade rocks my cutting world. I get a nice clean cut and the follow thru on the motion makes me feel like a pro.
I love this 10 inch chef knife. I have my dad over for dinner usually twice a month, and this is his favorite. It is perfect for someone who prefers a bigger chef knife.
The 10 inch chef's knife is an incredible and very large knife. Even with the size it is perfectly weighted and with the curved bolster you are able to achieve a secure pinch grip that allows the knife to become an extension of your hand. The longer blade provides increased reach and leverage and makes it perfect for cutting larger quantities and thicker vegetables and meats.
The Pro line of knives were developed for chefs and home cooks that needed comfortable, corrosion and chip resistant knives that didn't cause wrist fatigue. When working with a longer blade this becomes imparitive. Used with the proper pinch grip this longer blade is extremely managable and stable in the hand.
