Product Description This set of German stainless-steel knives makes prep work easy. Peel fruit and create garnishes with the 4-inch paring knife, slice through a crusty loaf of sourdough and make neat cubes of ciabatta with the 8-inch bread knife, and chop herbs, dice onions, and mince garlic with the all-rounder 8-inch chef’s knife. This set is completed with a 9-inch honing steel and kitchen shears and is housed in a 16-slot bamboo block. TWIN Signature knives are precision stamped from a single piece of special formula stainless steel, resulting in lighter weight knives. Combined with ZWILLING’s signature ice-hardening technique, these FRIODUR® blades will stay sharper, longer. To ensure an ideal cutting angle, the sharp laser-controlled edge is finely honed and hand-finished. The ergonomic, triple-rivet handle embedded with the ZWILLING logo provides durability and balance. And these dishwasher-safe, German-made knives are conveniently easy to clean. Set includes 2.75-inch bird's beak peeling, 4-inch paring, 4.5-inch utility, 5-inch serrated utility, 6-inch utility, 7-inch hollow edge santoku, 8-inch chef’s, 8-inch bread, kitchen shears, 9-inch sharpening steel, and 16-slot bamboo block. Amazon.com This knife block set carries a useful assortment of standard knives for outfitting a kitchen. The set includes a 2-1/2-inch peeling knife, a 4-inch paring knife, a 5-inch serrated utility knife, a 6-inch utility knife, and an 8-inch chef's knife, as well as a 7-inch hollow-edge santoku, an 8-inch bread knife, and a 4-1/2-inch steak knife. A 9-inch sharpening steel keeps their edges in order, and a pair of kitchen shears to snip herbs, flowers, or string is also included. Everything stores neatly in the attractive natural hardwood block. The knives feature high-carbon, stainless-steel blades that have been stamped from one piece of metal. The edge is cut by laser for a more consistent angle on the blade and hand-honed for sharpness. Blades have also undergone Henckels's Friodur ice-hardening process, which further strengthens them and protects from discoloration. The ergonomically designed traditional-style polymer handles are securely fastened to the balanced full tangs with three rivets. Handles seamlessly encase the tangs on these knives so no food particles can ever become trapped in a gap. Twin Signature knives are all dishwasher-safe (although Henckels recommends washing by hand) and are covered by a lifetime warranty. --Cristina VaamondeWhat's in the Box 2-1/2-inch peeling knife, 4-inch paring knife, 5-inch serrated utility knife, 6-inch utility knife, 8-inch chef's knife, 7-inch hollow-edge santoku, 8-inch bread knife, 4-1/2-inch steak knife, 9-inch sharpening steel, kitchen shears, and a hardwood block.
