Begin your cutlery collection with the essentials in the Zwilling J.A. Henckels Four Star 8-Piece Knife Block Set. This 10-slot block comes with the Zwilling J.A. Henckels Four Star 4-inch Paring Knife, 5-inch Serrated Utility Knife, 5.5-inch Prep Knife, 8-inch Chef's Knife, 8-inch Bread Knife, Honing Steel, and Kitchen Shears. The extra slots allow for expansion of your collection. The paring knife is an essential tool to handle smaller cutting tasks, such as peeling, coring, and pitting. The blade tapers to a sharp, pointed tip. The serrated utility knife allows you to neatly slice foods with a tough exterior and soft interior. The prep knife is versatile enough to handle a wide range of food preparation tasks. The chef's knife is an all-purpose knife that can mince herbs, dice vegetables, and slice through thick rinds and large cuts of meat. The bread knife slices through crust without compressing the loaf. The honing steel realigns knife blades between sharpenings. Use the shears to snip herbs and cut food packaging. The block protects knife blades while safely storing cutlery.
The Four Star collection is the top-selling series from Zwilling, designed to maximize safety, ergonomics, and comfort. The high carbon blades are each forged from a single piece of proprietary special formula steel that will not stain. The ice-hardened FRIODUR blades have a 15-degree edge angle on each side for added sharpness, and 57 Rockwell hardness for excellent edge retention. The bolsters offer balance and safety, and the ergonomic polypropylene handles are permanently bonded.
Each Four Star knife is honed and hand-finished by artisans. Made in Germany.
