Great set!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the weight and how they handle. They are very balanced and feel good in your grip. I only gave 4 stars because the block is enormous. It's not the block pictured on the box, it has a lot of extra slots for knives that didn't come with the set. Plus one of the slots hasn't been cut well and the knife stops less than halfway in So that's one slot that is useless and 12 other empty spaces that I don't have knives to fit into it. I really have no idea how this block got put into this box. A lot of wasted space.

Finally one of my own

I have always admired my parent's Zwilling knives. Now that I'm on my own i finally have my own. You cant beat the value for the price. I get all of the essentials with this set. My favorite is the prep knife. Its bigger than a pairing knife but smaller than the chef so if i dont feel like pulling out the big guns for a quick chop job I've got this one ready to go. I love the heritage of this line. Its been around forever and looks like it will be for a long time. The quality German steel and construction really make a difference. I also like how they left a few open slots so I can customize it with additional pieces to fit my needs.

Sharp Knives with good steel minor flaws

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall an okay set of knives but not worth the brad name premium Imo. For the money I expected full tang knives which was disappointing and brand new my Fine edge prep knife holds a significant bend in its spine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Knifes are very sharp I have had the set for 2 weeks.
I use the Chefs knife and Paring knife
most I ensure before every use to hone the blades also I recommend a good wood cutting board to a plastic or glass board.
This set of knifes are great for heavy work loads fast and smooth keeps a good edge while preping fruits and veggies also stays sharp trimming and butchering meat.
A great set of knifes for the consumer looking for qualit and price.

Lacks stability

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very excited to try out our new knife set, I’ve been looking forward to have these knives shipped to me. Well yesterday was the day, as I open the box like a kid on Christmas morning, I opened the block first and sat it on the table. Then the scissors placed them into the knife block, I couldn’t control myself as I was getting to the mother load of knives. Never in my 34 years have I spent a decent chunk of change on a set a knives like I did on this one, to say I was ecstatic is an understatement. Opened up the smallest knife first, very sharp with a clean edge, looking pretty awesome if you ask me, but then I held it in my hand like I was about to use it. The feeling of this knife in my hand felt very weak, felt very thin, felt very disappointed. Well I convinced my self to open up the next knife thinking well maybe that small knife was just a fluke, the next size up HAS to be better, more sturdy, more solid. As I opened the one up, it yet again looked very shard and clean edge but then I placed it in my hand and the same disappointment came over me. It feels like if I attempted to cut an onion with this knife that the blade would bend and I would be flinging my hand out of the way to not get cut! Well hopefully the bread knife would be better.. The bread knife was a lot better but it’s a bread knife, I mean it doesn’t have to be anything special. Then I came to the big Mack daddy of them all, the big knife. Well that knife... that knife succeeded all my expectations. Felt like a man, holding this knife. I felt like I could do all those tricks at a hibachi grill with this knife in my hand. Now all I need is the hat and grill! Overall I’m a bit disappointed with this knife set solely on the fact that the smaller knives felt very cheap and need to be thicker and more sturdy. Thanks for reading my review! Time to get cooking!

I was hoping for something that felt more professional. These feel flimsy. The knives are sharp but all new knives are sharp.

Great starter set
on March 25, 2020
Posted by: slickaphonic
This is a great starter set if you want high quality German knives at a really great price. It comes with the most commonly used knives but also has a few open slots on the block so it can be customized based on what you cook. We eat fish quite often so, I added on a filet knife and for chopping veggies, a santoku. The handle is very comfortable and the knife is not too heavy. They stay sharp for a long time and the kitchen shears come in really handy. Beautiful premium Zwilling quality at a great price!
