ZWILLING Professional "S" 6.5-inch Utility Knife

I wanted a 6" knife, but the 6" chef was too wide for the space in my block, so i went with the utility. It has generally the same functionality as the chef, but in a different shape and with less handle clearance for my fingers. My hands are small so this could be more of an issue for larger hands. Overall, tbe shape of the blade reminds me of a giant paring knife, and i have placed the utility and the paring near each other in the block.

Zwilling are the best knives around. I started using them 30 years ago. Thjis six inch size is very handy and I just wanted antoher one to go with my set. Pay for quality and then take care of it for a lifetime of use.

Perfect size for when you don't necessarily need to use the big chef's knife. Great for multipurpose use.

Best knives ever, I have wusthof knives also, but my zwilling pro s keep a better edge longer

Replacement for lost knife, have NOT used it yet, but SHIPPING very slow !!!

Great knife. Cuts though meat and vegetables like they're butter! Night and day from my old knives.

The six inch utility knife is like a small chef's knife, you can grab it for just about any cutting task from slicing or chopping small quantities of vegetables to cutting a sandwich. Professional S is forged from special steel that is corrosion resistant and ice hardened to give it the maximum hardness while retaining its flexibility to protect from chipping and cracking. The forged bolster and full tang of steel through the handle give this knife a very weighty and sturdy feel that I love.

Pro S is a classic line of German cutlery. Made from premium, ice-hardened German steel these knives will hold an edge longer and be more corrosion resistant. With the full bolster and 3 rivet handle this knife is well balanced and feels secure and smooth in the hand.

This all around knife. This is a knife many folks have grown up with. The shape is very good for slicing meats, vegetables, fruits. This Pro S is an extremely well made knife; the blade has a full tang that runs the length of the handle which is triple riveted together. This knife built to last. Professional S is terrific line of knives. They feature a traditional straight bolster and a slightly smaller handle. As a result they are a little lighter than the new Pro line. I have owned one of these knives for years (more than 10). It has performed year in and year out, and I cook a lot. I sharpen it maybe twice a year, hand wash it and it looks like I never use it.

The handle is a little too small and not very smooth and not feel comfortable holding... I have cheap one man version and the grip of handle is much comfortable. The reason I did not return is I gave to pay shipping
