German Bread Knife by ZWILLING Professional S, Razor-Sharp 8-inch Blade, Factory-Made with Special Formula Steel, Dishwasher Safe

The classic knives for the professional kitchen are the Professional "S" series. These knives are crafted from a special formula high carbon NO STAIN steel that has been perfected over 280 years. Utilizing ZWILLING's ice-hardening technique, the FRIODUR blades are exceptionally durable, sharp, and resistant to staining and chipping. The precise laser-controlled edge, honed and finished by skilled artisans, ensures a sharp cutting experience. The sturdy bolster provides balance and acts as a finger guard for safe handling.

Forged from a single piece of solid steel, these knives with three-rivet handles offer optimal balance and stability. Professional chefs around the world rely on the tradition and quality of these exceptional knives. The Pro S series includes a versatile bread knife with scalloped serrations that make slicing through crusty loaves a breeze. The classic three-rivet handles of the Pro S line differentiate it from other quality lines such as TwinStar, Five Star, and Four Star.

While traditionalists prefer the strength of single-piece forging, Henckels asserts that the high-tech welding used in the Pro S line actually creates stronger knives. The knives in the Pro S series share the same high-quality steel as the Five and Four Star lines. The seamless welds combine three steel types to give each knife distinct characteristics, like a hard edge, a stain-resistant bolster, and a corrosion-resistant tang.

The J.A. Henckels Twin Professional S (or Pro S) knife series is beloved by professional chefs and home cooks alike for its reliable quality and classic design. Precision forged from a single piece of high-carbon, no-stain steel under the Sigmaforge standard, Twin Pro S knives offer improved quality, lasting sharpness, and perfect geometry. The Friodur ice-hardening process enhances corrosion resistance and cutting-edge retention.

Featuring an ergonomic three-rivet handle design, Twin Pro S knives are comfortable to use and provide control during cutting tasks. The Novodur handles are durable and bonded to the full tang for stability. The super bolster adds weight for balance and safety, while the full visible tang construction ensures proper balance and strength. These knives are dishwasher-safe, but handwashing is recommended for longevity. Henckels offers a full warranty on all knives in the Twin Pro S series, manufactured in Germany.
