ZWILLING Chef's Knife, 8 Inch, Black

ZWILLING J.A. Henckels' FOUR STAR series is the best-selling knife collection globally, renowned for its safety, ergonomics, and comfort. Crafted by skilled artisans, these knives feature a seamless transition from bolster to handle, providing comfort during extended usage. The bolster acts as a safe finger guard and offers the perfect balance for effortless handling. Utilizing a proprietary special formula steel perfected over 280 years, combined with ZWILLING's ice-hardening technique, the FRIODUR blades are exceptionally hard, sharp, stain-resistant, chip-resistant, and maintain their sharpness over time.

Each SIGMAFORGE knife is precision-forged from a single piece of steel, creating a sturdy, balanced, and flexible blade. The 8-inch blade with a curved cutting edge and blunt back simplifies chopping, dicing, and mincing tasks with a quick rocking motion. The hand-honed blade is made using Henckels' Sintermetal Component Technology, merging three grades of steel into one piece for lasting quality.
