ZWILLING Professional "S" 20-pc Knife Block Set

I have used Henckle Knives for over 25 years. I put my old set in our Motorhome and bought this new set for the house.

This set has it all! Even a boning knife and a bird's beak paring knife! two of my favorites. The Pro S line is tried and true. The quality of the steel can last for decades - mine has - and the comfortable handles are perfect for medium and small hands. If you have bigger hands, check out the new Pro line. Little bigger grips and a little more weight. This set is complete with high quality straight edge steak knives so you can maintain their edge. But doesn't take a lot, these knives stay sharp wit regular honing. I do recommend hand washing, so they stay looking like new. They are dishwasher safe though.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The knives came super sharp and cut like they're supposed to.

everything you could ever need in one block set. the selection in this set of superior knives is unreal! A boning knife, a santoku, 3 different shaped parers plus 8 steak knives! And you still get the other regular knives, normally in a block set. These knives are made to last a lifetime so i think they will cover all of you kitchen culinary needs!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There is something to be said about the feeling of quality. It's hard to explain, but if you've ever held or used one of these blades before you know what I'm referring too. Using these makes my food taste better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We've had a Professional “S” chef's knife for 10+ years and use it daily. We've never had to sharpen it and it has outlasted any other knives we have purchased, so we've now made the move to get a whole set of Professional “S” knives

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a set of cuisinart knives from a long time ago and thought I might need an upgrade. The old knives were not well balanced and dull. The new swilling knives are amazingly sharp and all of them are well balanced in your hand. Almost zero pressure was required to cut through thawed chicken.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love the look and feel of these knives. They make meal prep so much simpler and efficient. The quality can be felt as soon as you begin opening the package, from the way they are packed to the detailed description provided. They look terrific on my counter and are at arm's reach during cooking/prep.

Pro S knives were my first introduction to premium knives. I was overwhelmed with the sharpness and how well they stayed sharp. They feel great and chop even better. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen and having good knives is such a game changer. When you get a set like this, you are set for the rest of your life. It may be one of your most important purchases. This block set is truly the best! Every single knife, including the eight steak knives, are made in Germany and forged from German steel. That means they are all very sharp, have that great weight and feel of a forged knife, and are going to stay sharp. A few "bonus knives" that you wouldn't normally get are the boning knife, perfect for working around chicken bones or segmenting oranges. The bird's beak parer is perfect for coring strawberries or deveining shrimp. And of course the bread knife, slices through crusty bread without smooshing or flattening.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Zwilling Professional “S” 20-pc block set is a solid choice. Was debating between the Pro and Pro S and opted for the Pro S as the weight felt more comfortable in my hand. The material is high quality and the blade profile is fantastic. Overall great products.
