ZWILLING Four Star 7-inch Hollow Edge Santoku Knife

Really pleased with this knife. It feels good in my hand and is balanced and sharp. Very good price too.

this zwilling/henckels 4 star santoku is an excellent addition to the other 11 4 stars i already have. they were purchased in 1982 when we lived in germany. while i am not a super chef by any means, i truly appreciate a well balanced, well treated, knife kept super sharp over all these years and this knife fits that description. i have used in every day since it was delivered. couldn't be happier with this new addition to my family of 4 star knives.

I have owned a set of four star Henckels knives for more than a decade and bought this Santoku to complement the set. All of the knives have been used multiple times daily and performed well with basic care including hand washing, hand drying, and approximately monthly dates with a matching sharpening steel. Advantages of the Santoku over my chef's knife are the ability to chop large vegetables while maintaining good control over the wide blade and the hollow ground surface easily releases foods that would otherwise stick to the blade. I still prefer the chef's knife for chopping smaller things, like herbs, where the deeper drop angle to the point allows more rocking motion. This knife has the same high quality as the rest of my set and I anticipate that it, along with the others, will be part of my kitchen for a lifetime.

Slices through pretty much anything with ease, is light and comfortable. Very well made. I am pleased with this knife

The knife is sturdy and the cutting edge was sharp - up to a point. I cleaned the blade before using it for the first time using soap and water; so far so good. Then I cut a pork loin into steaks on a plastic cutting surface and then I noticed that there was a burr about 1" - 1 1/2" at the tip of the knife. Stopping the edge wouldn't remove the burr so I used a diamond sharpening stone, followed by a leather strop, to clean up the edge. I have emailed the seller just to let them know that their QC needs to be improved but I will keep using the knife as it is a sturdy and well-made piece of cutlery.

I absolutely adore this knife! It’s light and very sharp, so be careful. I cut myself by accident while I was washing it. I got this on sale and couldn’t be happier! Recommend 10/10

I own a set of these knives for over thirty years and I bought them from Germany. This knife looks the same and that was the reason I purchased it to Match my set but the material is definitely not the same. The steal is definitely thinner by at least a third and feels lighter. It’s OK for me because I don’t use it as much and matches my set but every time i wash it, I make sure to dry it before putting it away.

Cuts and holds and edge !

works great sharp . well balanced definitely recommend .

Perfect product and delivery - thanks!
