Our take on the Zwilling Four Star 7 Piece Self Sharpening Knife Block Set

This is a seven-piece German knife set built around a self-sharpening block: every time you pull a knife out or slide it back in, the block's ceramic sharpeners hone the edge. The knives are precision-forged from a single piece of Zwilling's special-formula high-carbon stainless steel at 57 Rockwell, with full tangs and textured polypropylene handles. The set covers the core jobs: 8-inch chef's knife, bread knife, serrated utility, paring knife, kitchen shears and a block. It suits cooks who want sharp knives without learning to sharpen, and it undercuts Wüsthof and other German rivals on value while giving up their harder, thinner edges and riveted handles.

Best forHome cooks who never want to sharpen by handBuying a first serious knife setHouseholds that want shears and a bread knife includedPeople who prefer low-maintenance handles over wood
Pros
  • Self-sharpening block hones edges on every use
  • Forged full-tang blades from a single piece of steel
  • 57 Rockwell steel holds an edge well
  • Textured polypropylene handles are grippy and dishwasher tolerant
  • Covers chef, bread, utility, paring and shears in one set
Cons
  • Block sharpeners remove metal over time and can't match a whetstone
  • Polypropylene handles feel less premium than riveted wood or Micarta
  • Serrated and utility slots limit what the block can hold
  • Blades are flexible and less hard than some German rivals
  • Handwashing is still recommended despite the dishwasher-safe claim

What reviewers say

  • 4.8 / 5818 ratings

Owners rate the set very highly, praising sharpness out of the box, the convenience of the self-sharpening block and the comfortable grip. Complaints center on the block's sharpener wearing edges over years and on the plastic handles feeling less refined than the blades.

About the Zwilling Four Star 7 Piece Self Sharpening Knife Block Set

The Zwilling Four Star set has seven pieces: a chef's knife, a paring knife, a serrated utility knife, kitchen shears, and a knife block. The set follows a German design.

Each blade is precision-forged from a single piece of special formula high carbon stainless steel and has a full tang. The blades have a hardness of 57 Rockwell and are stain-resistant and corrosion-resistant. The edges are cut at an angle meant to balance sharpness and durability, and they retain sharpness longer.

The handles are polypropylene with an ergonomic, textured shape. The set can be washed in the dishwasher, though handwashing is recommended.

Questions and answers

Does the self-sharpening block really work?
Yes. Ceramic sharpeners in each slot hone the edge as you insert and remove the knife. It keeps knives usable but is coarser than a whetstone, so edges slowly lose metal over years.
How does it compare with Wüsthof Classic?
Both are forged German knives. Zwilling's steel is slightly softer at 57 Rockwell and its handles are molded plastic rather than riveted, which makes this set the lower-maintenance, lower-cost option.
Are the knives dishwasher safe?
Zwilling lists them as dishwasher safe but recommends handwashing. Detergent and heat dull edges and can degrade the handles faster.
What knives are in the set?
An 8-inch chef's knife, a bread knife, a serrated utility knife, a paring knife, kitchen shears and the self-sharpening block.
Can I add knives to the block?
Only knives that fit the existing slots. The block's sharpening slots are sized for the included knives, so extra pieces usually need separate storage.
Is it worth it over buying knives separately?
If you want one purchase that covers chef, bread, utility and paring tasks with no sharpening routine, yes. If you already own good knives, buy a chef's knife and a separate sharpener instead.
