ZWILLING Four Star Chef's Knife

Bought the 10" Four Star Chef's Knife in 1992 or 93. Used it pretty much every day since. Certainly have used it more than once per week since. It is my preferred knife of the 4 Zwillings I own. I use it for every kitchen task. In the 32 +/- years of use these are the simplest of my observations; 1. It takes a good edge when sharpened. 2. The handle can become a little slick when wet and will then twist in my hand due to the "round" plastic handle. 3. The weight and balance of the knife feels very good to me every time I pick it up and use it. 4. It is hard to sharpen, it takes a lot of work running it through the sharpener to put an edge back on it but it holds that edge well for a satisfactory length of use. I would buy it again, but only if the Zwilling Pro knives were no longer available. This knife, after 32 years of use, will most likely last me the rest of my life so even though it was very expensive when I bought it in 1992 it has turned out to be an excellent investment.

My grandparents gave my parents a version of this knife in 1983. It was a staple in our kitchen growing up and now I’m teaching my son to cook with it. This knife has lasted 40 years and as I grew old enough to stock my own kitchen I’ve always preferred the durability, weight and balance of my Henkle.

Well balanced Knife excellent edge, this is my go to Knife in the Kitchen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this knife in 1989 and used it almost everyday! It’s perfect for chopping just about anything. The length of the knife gives you the ability to chop more at once. It’s easy to hold and not awkward at all. I would HIGHLY recommend purchasing this knife. You will not be disappointed! …sadly, the tip end of my original knife snapped off about 2 weeks ago, so I needed to get a new one…

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sharp edged high quality steel and the handle fits my hand perfectly.

My husband is a chef and he loved this knife. It’s gift-able, with two sturdy boxes. It’s absolutely beautiful and a steal for the price!

Great knives, very sharp, sturdy and durable; my mom has a set and I bought my daughter/husband a set - I actually got mine as a gift and bought 4 more pieces to complete the set. Would recommend to friends and will continue to buy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this as part of a set. Love the brand and quality. Second knife block set. The other ones still going strong from our wedding over 20 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this knife I can finally cut a rib roast into ribeye steaks with ease. My 8” zwilling chefs knife was just a struggle to use with a rib roast cuz it was just not long enough to get a nice clean cut steak. Now I don’t have to worry about it cuz the 10” cuts it with the ease and precision I desired! I can’t wait to add more Zwilling knives to my collection. I love the quality of the steel too It holds an amazing edge for a very long time even with heavy use! I love these knives! Hands down the only knives I’ll buy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great knife! Super sharp, easy & comfortable to hold.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have owned an 8 inch four star for 15+ yrs now and needed a little more length. The 10 in four star is used for slicing poem shoulder for sausage. It does a remarkable job with using a steel with every use as it should.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s easy to handle and the angle of the blade is perfect! Nice weight and balance!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a large, well-balanced blade that performs well as a chef’s knife as well as a carving knife.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love 10” size of the chef knife. It is easy to handle. My favorite knife in my set.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband has been telling me foe years to get a good knife. I frequently cut myself when pushing others despite frequent sharpening. This knife slices so easily I don’t have to “push”at all. I’m excited

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the size and the way it feels in my hand. Great for all types of cutting.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I owned 8inch one for years.I always wanted 10 inch one ,too.This really great and well made German knife and looks good! It makes cooking much easier and faster.

The Zwilling Four Star 10" chef's knife is the perfect knife for the professional chef. Molded handle, no rivets, makes for a comfortable grip, and approved for commercial use. The 10" blade gives me the surface area I need to slice and chop large quantities of food at the rapid pace required. Made in Germany, the high carbon steel is durable, holds and edge and is easily maintained. The Four Star line of knives have been used by professional chefs for over forty years. Always recommend these to anyone looking for a great knife that will stand the test of time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Awesome Chef's Knife, well balanced, nice weight and holds edge well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I feel like the knife is huge compared to my other small 8in chef knife. I love how it still is light weight despite it being larger
