J.A. Henckels Twin Signature 7-Inch Hollow Edge Santoku Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)They aren't kidding--this thing is razor-sharp.It needed no tuning up before I used it for the first time.The handle is balanced so that one feels almost no weight... which is unfortunate, because I like the weight for chopping.But the hollow-edge design is wonderful--the mushrooms and onions I sliced up were thin as paper, and didn't stick to the blade.I'd recommend it.

Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Four Star 2-Piece Promotional Boning and Fillet Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Simply the best. I use about a four pound rump roast to make chili (eight quarts also with three pounds of ground beef and one pound of sausage) and it usually takes me quite a bit of time to trim the fat and dice the meat into small pieces. I used both the fillet and boning knives, and it was so much more easier and effortless that I enjoyed doing it, it took a lot less time than using my old knives. I'll never buy another cheap knife again.

NOTE: Amazon has this set incorrectly listed as "Twin Four Star 2-Piece", it should be "Henckel Four Star 2-Piece" set, not Twin.

Product Description:
A useful addition to any collection of kitchen knives, this two-piece set consists of a 5-1/2-inch boning knife and 7-inch fillet knife. The thin, flexible blade of the boning knife works well for cutting ham, roasts, and other large pieces of food, while the long, slim, flexible blade and straight cutting edge of the fillet knife make it easy to cleanly cut pieces of meat and fish. Constructed under Henckels' sigmaforge standards, their one-piece, high-carbon, no-stain, forged steel blades come Friodur ice hardened for durability and maximum corrosion resistance. Even more, the knives supply German-made molded polypropylene handles for a comfortable grip, and full rat-tail tangs and bolsters for superior balance. Stamped with the Zwilling J.A. Henckels' logo, the boning knife measures 16-1/2 by 2-3/4 by 1-1/2 inches and the fillet knife measures 16-1/2 by 2-3/4 by 1/2 inches.

J.A. Henckels International Henckels Classic 7-Inch Santoku Knife with Hollow Edge Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a fan of the Spanish-made Henckel's Int'l Classic lines. I have the bread knife and the utility knife as well. I think the major budget concessions (as these are not the high-end German-made line) comes in the size. Classic blades, though full-tang and thrice-riveted, have less steel than comparable brands. This makes them slender and light in the hand. However, less steel is not lower-quality steel, and these blades are incredibly hard and reliable.

This santoku is still large enough to use as a spatula when cutting, delivering onions, mushrooms or other slices or mince to the pan while cooking speedily. It sharpens easily (I use a small stone under running water), and responds well to a steel every few uses. It's the sharpest blade in my collection, easily slicing up my sponges when I clean it. With care, it won't do the same to your skin, mostly because of the sturdiness of construction that breeds confident handling. It won't slide off most vegetables before slicing in, and can even cleave small poultry bones with slow and steady pressure downward (I wouldn't use it to hack as real cleavers do). This is a precision instrument, not a blunt tool.

Henckels TWIN Signature Chef's Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered this knife as part of a budding good-knife collection.I've used it for about two weeks now, to cut everything: chocolate, chicken, fruit, bacon, onions, and lots and lots of scrap paper (alas, even a curious man's fingernail fell victim to this knife).It's very sharp, and holds a blade as you'd expect a Henckels knife to do.It performs quite well.

However, I'm not sure it will become my favorite knife.An odd thing happens when I use it: I can't just grab the handle and control the knife like you'd expect to control any decent chef's knife.I end up laying my whole index finger along the top of the blade and crowding all of the rest of my fingers in the front 1.5" of handle space.I try to make myself use only the handle, but the knife feels unwieldy and strange.I'd chalk this peculiarity up to my own ignorance of how to properly use a knife, but here's the thing--the boyfriend, using it the other day to cut chocolate (okay, it was his fingernail that fell victim to the "test kitchen" trials), found himself holding the knife the very same way.

We might just be weird, and yes, Amazon is selling a great German knife for $33, but be warned--that grip just isn't as comfortable, nor does it provide the same power, as a more expensive Henckels knife.

J.A. Henckels Twin Four Star Series 7-Inch Santoku Knife with Hollow Edge Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I took a knife skills class and immediately fell in love with this santoku. It has a hollow and extremely sharp edge and the length allows you to smoothly rock the knife to slice quickly and effortlessly. The granton edge helps keep food from sticking to the blade while slicing and the knife itself is well-balanced with a solid bolster and tang. The wide blade is also wonderful for scooping up from the cutting board to bowl or pan. This knife is going to be my workhorse, no doubt about it!

Because it's expensive, I feel that I should warn that if you cut on glass, marble, ceramic or other hard surfaces, you'll be wasting your money, because this knife edge will be destroyed by those. It should also be honed on a fine or smooth steel before each use to keep that razor edge straight and then professionally sharpened once or twice a year.

I highly recommend this knife -- very good quality.
