Review: Excellent knife - I replaced an identical knife with this Zwilling. 14 years of use and abuse of my old knife it was time to replace. You will immediately notice the quality of the knife when you remove from the packaging. This knife is balanced and very sharp. I like the 8 inch length as I had a cheap 10 inch knife and I could not slice as quickly as I could with the 8 inch knife. This is the professional series of knifes and is not really highlighted in the title or description of the this product. I would recommend to a friend.
Review: Great Chef's Knife for the home cook! - This is a solid 8" classic chef's knife that is perfect for the home cook. The steel is of good quality and holds an edge for some time. Sharpening is easy if you know what you are doing or have an automatic sharpener at home and the steel quality will allow for many years of honing the edge. Performs well on cold and hot foods and has excellent balance. The tang is the full length of the handle and almost as long as the blade. You can spend close to $200 on some knives, but you have to stop and ask yourself "Am I good enough to need this knife?" Are you professionally trained? Work in a restaurant? Do you need a razor sharp edge to execute fine detail cuts for French or Japanese cuisine? No? Then don't spend $200 on a knife. Get this one and do all the same cooking you would have with the super expensive one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ perfect
*by F***S on August 12, 2025*

Needed a replacement knife for my household chef. She had one from somewhere she adored for much too long. So long the makers marks were worn away and the handle had finally rusted through. This happened to be the perfect replacement. Not heavy, the right spring, very sharp, and relatively thin handle (for small hands). I is just about the same as the beloved one from decades ago. I feel I paid a little too much, but it was in fact the perfect replacement, so what is there to say.
