The Zwilling Pro 8-inch chef's knife is a forged German workhorse cut from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel. Its Friodur ice-hardened blade runs at 57 Rockwell and a 15-degree edge, so it takes a keener angle than the 20-degree edges common on Wüsthof and other German rivals. The curved bolster and full tang give a solid, balanced grip, and the three-rivet resin handle is the traditional shape many cooks prefer. It suits home cooks and pros who want one do-it-all knife with a long warranty behind it.
