ZWILLING Professional S 7-inch German Santoku Knife, Hollow Edge, Special Formula Steel, Dishwasher Safe

The classic knives for the professional kitchen, the Professional "S" series are made of proprietary special formula steel perfected over 280 years. These FRIODUR blades, combined with ZWILLING's ice-hardening technique, are harder, sharper, and resistant to staining and chipping, maintaining their sharpness longer. Crafted by skilled artisans, the knives' laser-controlled edge is incredibly sharp, with a sturdy bolster providing balance and acting as a finger guard. Precision-forged from a single piece of solid steel, the threerivet handle knives deliver optimum balance and safe handling, trusted by professional chefs worldwide.

The santoku, a Japanese version of the chef's knife, is ideal for straight chopping, mincing, and slicing large quantities of vegetables and meat. With a 7-inch blade, it is preferred by cooks with smaller hands for better control while cutting. The hollow edge of this santoku allows for paper-thin slices, with individual slices not sticking to the blade. As part of the Pro S series, this high-carbon stainless-steel knife features a fully forged blade, bolster, and tang using Henckels's Sinter Metal Component Technology for improved edge retention.

Crafted under the Sigmaforge standard, the Twin Pro S knives are precision forged from high-carbon, no-stain steel for lasting sharpness and perfect geometry. The Friodur ice hardening process further strengthens the blade, with the traditional-style black synthetic handle offering comfort and control. Ergonomic and durable, the three-rivet handle design ensures stability and precision when cutting. With features like laser-controlled edge, super bolster, and full visible tang construction, these knives provide optimum balance and strength for professional cutting tasks.

Manufactured in Germany, these knives are dishwasher-safe for easy care, though hand washing is recommended. Backed by a full warranty from J.A. Henckels, these knives are a reliable standard in knife construction, suitable for both professional chefs and home cooks of all skill levels.
