Product Description
The 8" Hollow Edge Chef's Knife is also known as the cook's knife. This all-round knife features a broad, sturdy blade for skinning vegetables, chopping meats and mincing herbs. The hollows prevent foods from sticking and allows for extra thin cutting. TWIN Cuisine is the first premium-quality forged knife to combine an ergonomic molded handle with the superior weight and balance of a full metal tang. A union of classic design and modern manufacturing technology, German-made TWIN Cuisine cutlery features high-carbon no-stain steel blades, ice-hardened for superior strength and sharpness. Elegantly curved handles are smooth and seamless with a full rat-tail tang for increased stability and lasting durability.brbrbProduct Features/bbr#149; Traditional hot drop forged from one-piece of steel for greater stability and sharpnessbr#149; Friodur ice-hardened knife blade offers greater resistance to corrosion and pittingbr#149; Precision hand-honed high carbon stain-steel knife blade protect against rust and stainsbr#149; Laser-controlled knife edges stay sharp longer with a more consistent blade anglebr#149; Ergonomically designed knife handle offers a smooth, comfortable gripbr#149; Seamless polypropylene handle is unbreakablebr#149; Full rat-tail tang adds proper balance and greater strengthbr#149; Enlarged knife bolster lends extra balancebr#149; Dishwasher-safe, but hand-washing recommendedbr#149; Made in Germanybr#149; Lifetime warrantybr#149; BONUS: Cookbook CD with 121 international recipes

Amazon.com Review
One of the newest premium lines from Zwilling J.A. Henckels, Twin Cuisine was introduced in 2004 with a major revelation: it's the first high-quality forged cutlery line to feature a molded handle with a visible, full-length tang that runs horizontally. In fact, the handle is absolutely stunning, with the shiny tang curving slightly as it courses through the black nonslip polypropylene. With no rivets or gaps, the ergonomic handle provides seamless comfort, while the full tang adds weight for precision balance. The single-piece blade, forged from high-carbon, no-stain steel and strengthened in Henckels's exclusive Friodur ice-hardening process, retains its sharp edge through extensive cutting and chopping. Made in Germany and covered by a lifetime warranty, Twin Cuisine knives are dishwasher-safe but are best cared for when washed and dried by hand. p A fabulous blend of a Western chef's knife and an Asian santoku, this large 8-inch knife features both a pointed tip and a hollow edge. Able to rock better than a flat-bladed santoku, this knife is excellent for mincing as well as slicing and dicing. Hollowed-out ovals along the razor-sharp edge reduce friction during cutting, resulting in speedier release of food and paper-thin slices of fish, meat, or vegetables. An all-round general workhorse for any kitchen, the knife measures 13-1/2 inches in overall length and makes a superb gift for the chef who enjoys preparing all types of cuisine.

Plus, the Twin Cuisine's exclusive, award-winning patented handle design is a new standard in fine cutlery (U.S. design patent #D524,121). The series is available in many styles for numerous cutting tasks. Twin Cuisine is also available in a variety of block sets and gift sets. The Twin Cuisine series truly is a masterful blend of form and function. td /tr /table P BA Higher Standard in Knife Construction/BP Twin Cuisine knives are traditionally forged from a single piece of J.A. Henckels's exclusive high-carbon, no-stain steel formula. The result is a knife with high durability, professional strength, and weight. Twin Cuisine also uses J.A. Henckels's Friodur ice-hardening process, which results in a blade that has excellent cutting-edge retention and corrosion resistance. The blade edge is precision honed and laser controlled to maintain a sharper and consistent blade angle.
