Customer Review: The best balanced knives around
Summary: 5 Stars
These knives feel so natural in your hand that you might as well be Wolverine from the X-men (OK, they feel supernatural). Each of the knives is very sharp, holds an edge brilliantly, and is a pleasure to hold in your hand. The brushed stainless finish of the handles is really handsome and would fit in any kitchen. The knives are a real pleasure to use.

Distinguished by 18/10 stainless-steel, satin-finish handles, Twin Select knives embody Henckels's world-renowned craftsmanship. Henckels uses a high-tech welding process to form the knives in its first-rate cutlery lines. This process combines three types of high-carbon stainless steel into a single piece so that each part of a knife--blade, bolster, and tang--performs optimally. Shaped like gentle waves to fit the hand snugly, the ergonomically designed handles contain full rat-tail tangs and are fully watertight with no gaps. The set consists of an 8-inch chef's knife, an 8-inch serrated bread knife, an 8-inch carving knife, a 4-inch paring knife, a 6-inch utility knife, a 10-inch sharpening steel, and a heavy wood storage block with a black-granite finish that handsomely sets off the stainless-steel knives. The block holds all five knives and the steel, and has four more knife slots as well as a slot for kitchen shears. Though the knives are dishwasher-safe, they should be hand washed to protect edges. The entire set carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

A Higher Standard in Knife Construction
Twin Select knives are precision forged from a single piece of exclusive-formula, high-carbon, no-stain steel under the all-new Sigmaforge standard. As a result, these knives have improved quality consistency, lasting sharpness, and perfect geometry. Sigmaforge one-piece construction also provides high precision and improved stability of the blade and steel structure, thus improving cutting-edge retention for lasting sharpness. In addition, Twin Select knives use J.A. Henckels's Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.

 | The Twin Select series features comfortable, ergonomic stainless-steel handles that accommodate each hand size while improving function, convenience, and safety. These patented handles are hygienic, colorfast, and break-proof (USA Patent #5791055). The quality of Twin Select can be recognized by the Zwilling J.A. Henckels logo featured on the end of the handle. |
