Q: I like knives heavy enough that the weight does the cutting. How heavy is this knife? what does it weigh (grams or ounces)?

submitted by Lorelei - 6 years ago
  • A: The 8" Chef's Knife (default) weighs 7.25 ounces. Four Star is mid-weight because of the lighter handle. Traditional, riveted styles will be heavier. For example, our Zwilling Pro 8" Chef's Knife weighs 9.17 ounces.

    Just the best knife!

    So sharp, right up to the very tip of the knife and it fits so nicely in my hand. I love it. Hope to buy more in future. Thanks, Zwilling!

    Sharp and light

    Everything about this knife is great except the tip of my knife catches on everything, I believe there to be a burr or something which is disappointing. Everything else about this knife is great!

    Best knife I have ever owned.

    Best knife I have ever owned. I used to work next to another my knife, manufacturer and distributor in Portland Oregon metro area. I gave them access to our parking lot on the weekends with they held Christmas sales, etc. I got to know the people there it would go over and purchase their knives. I thought they were excellent until I started using this one. They now know the difference between a very good knife and one that’s “OK.” Willing makes great products. I need to go on their web site and purchase my next one. Did you leave today

    Love it, 8” Chef Knife

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing difference using a sharp knife. Just received my 8 inch Chef Knife and love it. Very comfortable in my small hand. And the sharp blade makes chopping veggies so easy and fun!

    Well-balanced

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although the knife was very large, it was well balanced and sharp. I was able to mince garlic easily as well as chop parsley.

    Amazing

    I've never paid much attention to the quality of my knives. This knife taught me what I was missing by not looking for quality knives!

    Food Prep Made Easy

    Excellent quality and very sharp. My ease of food prep just went up a number of notches and prep time decreased with this precise slicing.

    Nice fit

    I absolutely love this knife! I may actually retire the only straight edged knife that I have ever used, the 40 year old “multi purpose” knife that I got when I worked for UAL preparing first class fruit plates in 12/1986. It’s not quite the same but when I find something that I like, it’s the only one that I use for everything except paring. Handles smoothly, comfortable grip, only very minor complaint: I wish that it had come with a sheath.

    Nice weight & feel

    We really value good, purpose driven knives in the kitchen; this one has a nice weight to it, comfortable handle even good for smaller hands. Since receiving it I have deliberately used this to see how it feels and performs in different roles - it has been excellent overall (more comfortable than the equivalent Global - for one thing, the Zwilling back-end of the blade is flat vs the Global has the blade extending to the end). Haven't used it for long enough to evaluate sharpness retention but the other Zwilling (Santoku) knife we've had for years has been excellent.

    Love This Knife!

    I received this knife as a gift for ordering three times with HelloFresh, and I’m honestly blown away. It’s incredibly sharp! I didn’t realize how dull my other favorite knives were until I started using this one. It’s the perfect size for me! Great for cutting carrots, tomatoes, potatoes, and I can slice my steak fajita-style with no problem. After using it for about a month, I trust the quality of this company and will definitely be buying another one.
