Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Cermax M66 5-Inch Paring/Utility Knife

Customer Review: I love this little knife
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this knife a year-and-a-half ago, along with the big 9-inch chef's knife. I love both of these knives. They are both light and extremely sharp. While these knife is small, and is best used on small cutting tasks, it is perfect for these small tasks. It's so light that it feels like a toy knife, but it's so sharp that it's extremely effective. It makes cooking fun -- what more can you ask?

For a small woman, it's a very useful knife that can be used for most kitchen tasks that a large guy would use a chef's knife for. Only large cutting tasks are beyond this little knife.

Description of Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Cermax M66 5-Inch Paring/Utility Knife

Experience a new standard in sharpness with J.A. Henckels' TWIN Cermax M66 5" Paring/Utility knife. Medium-sized, versatile knife excellent for cutting juicy or soft vegetables, fruits and baked goods. TWIN Cermax M66 knives feature exclusive MC66 high
A striking feat of engineering, the TWIN Cermax M66 line from J.A. Henckels is the cutlery company's premium offering in cooking knives. Exceptionally sharp and a dream to handle, the knives combine German steel with Japanese manufacture, and their design is exquisite, smart, and tough. Honed by hand with an Asian-style edge, TWIN Cermax M66 blades are crafted from microcarbide steel, a molten substance atomized into a powder and then compacted under high pressure. The result is a hardness rating of 66 Rockwell, which allows the blades to be brought to an incredible sharpness and ensures that they retain their edges remarkably well. To increase balance and comfort in action, the knives also feature full-tang construction, triple rivets, and a rounded ergonomic grip. Though styled to resemble wood, the black handles are in fact a layered and compacted compound of linen and resin called Micarta, resulting in excellent maneuverability and satisfying weight.

A versatile size and handy shape, this 5-inch paring/utility knife is perfect for frequent but small jobs, like slicing peaches, halving muffins, and trimming hard cheeses. The handle-to-blade ratio is also comfortable enough to make this a go-to parer for big-framed chefs or a regular chopper for petite ones. Like the rest of the TWIN Cermax M66 line, this knife should always be washed and dried by hand and carries J.A. Henckels' lifetime warranty. --Emily Bedard

From the Manufacturer

TWIN® Cermax M66 fulfills every knife lovers' dream. Special MicroCarbide Powder Steel ensures that the blade is as sharp as a scalpel and exceptionally hard. (The Cermax line measures 66 in the Rockwell Hardness Test.) The ergonomic handle is made from the latest, state-of-the-art technology and materials suggested by top Japanese Iron Chef, Rokusaburo Michiba. TWIN® Cermax M66 knives are crafted in Japan and are complemented with an attractive gift box.

A Different Standard in Blade Construction:

Traditional steel can have uneven carbides of varying size, but TWIN® Cermax M66 blades are constructed with a core of special MC66 Steel (MicroCarbide) powder steel. This special steel is even with refined carbides and is developed by atomizing molten steel into micro powder, then compacting it under high pressure. The result is a hardness of 66 Rockwell and a sharper cutting edge. The MC66 core is covered by innovative CLAD material which protects the extremely hard core, thus minimizing any chance of corrosion or breakage. The cutting edge is exceptionally sharp due to the Asian edge angle and the hand honing process.

It's All in The Grip:

The revolutionary 3-rivet, full tang, Micarta handles are made from linen and synthetic resin compounded by pressure and heat. Micarta's distinguishing features are the elegant, wood-like appearance and smooth finish. These perfect ergonomic handles have been developed in cooperation with top Japanese Iron Chef, Rokusaburo Michiba. A top quality end cap features the Zwilling J.A. Henckels logo, which is world renown as a symbol of quality.

Features:

  • Clad Metal: MC66 steel core is a high carbon steel covered with a high-corrosion resistant steel.
  • MC66 Steel (MicroCarbide Steel): Powder metal steel; molten steel is atomized into micro powder and compacted under high pressure allowing for the incredible hardness of 66 Rockwell.
  • MC66 Steel Edge: Due to the stability of the cutting edge and Asian edge angle, it is sharper and stays sharper longer.
  • Hand-honed: For razor sharp cutting edge.
  • 3-Rivet, Full Tang Handle with Metal End Cap featuring Zwilling J.A. Henckels logo
  • Ergonomic Handle: For tireless cutting and safety.
  • Micarta Handle: New material made from linen and resin compound by pressure and heat creates an elegant wood-like appearance.
  • Full Warranty: J.A. Henckels stands behind all its knives
  • Cleaning Tips: Always clean TWIN® Cermax M66 knives by hand, never in the dishwasher.
  • Sharpening Tips: To sharpen, please use a sharpening stone such as TWIN® Stone Pro or a J.A. Henckels Diamond Steel.
