Product Description

Amazon.com Review

The serrated 5-inch cutting edge and ergonomic handle make this a top-notch utility knife. Forged in Solingen, Germany, of a combination of ice-hardened carbon and stainless steel for edge retention, rust-resistance, and durability, this knife easily cuts through any food with a tough outer casing: sausages, tomatoes, eggplant, or crusty bread, for example. Most useful indeed!

The ergonomic polypropylene handle lies comfortably in your hand, facilitating strain-free use; the metal bolster acts as a finger-guard; and the blade, bolster, and tang are fused into a single, seamless piece for easy handling and balance.. The absence of rivets and recesses in the synthetic handle allows for dishwasher use. Finally! Still, the best way to care for this knife is to hand wash it with a mild soap, rinse it well, and then immediately wipe it dry. --Marcela Broussard

From the Manufacturer

The TWIN® Five Star range is a masterful blend of sharpness and ergonomic design. This series combines the world’s most famous Henckels' blade (Four Star®) with an ergonomic molded handle. This perfectly proportioned handle has been created with a new open flow to accommodate each individual hand while improving convenience and safety for the user. The TWIN® Five Star line contains knives for all tasks, including the following open stock knife types: parer, bread, sandwich, carving, chef’s, santoku, and others. TWIN® Five Star knives are also available in a range of block sets and gift sets, to be sure that your cutlery needs are covered.

A Higher Standard in Knife Construction

TWIN® Five Star knives are precision forged from a single piece of exclusive-formula, high-carbon, no-stain steel under the all-new Sigmaforge standard. As a result, TWIN® Five Star knives have improved quality consistency, lasting sharpness, and perfect geometry. Sigmaforge one-piece construction also provides high precision and improved stability of the blade and steel structure, thus improving cutting-edge retention for lasting sharpness. In addition, TWIN® Five Star knives use J.A. Henckels’ Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.

It's All in The Grip:

The Five Star® series features high impact polypropylene handles that are permanently bonded to the knife blades without any gaps. These ergonomic handles are break-proof, sanitary, and colorfast. In addition, the super bolster provides weight, insures safety, and adds balance.

Features:

  • SIGMAFORGE 1-piece, precision forged construction: Provides perfect geometry, high precision, and improved stability of the blade and steel structure, thus improving cutting edge retention for lasting sharpness.
  • Laser controlled edge: Is sharper and stays sharper longer. Has a more consistent blade angle.
  • Friodur ice hardening: Maximum no-stain properties and more blade strength. Improved resistance to corrosion and pitting.
  • Super bolster: Provides weight, insures safety, and adds balance.
  • Full rat-tail tang: Provides a proper balance and greater strength.
  • High-carbon no-stain steel, an exclusive J.A. Henckels formula: Non-staining, non-rusting.
  • Hand, precision honed blade: Is sharper and stays sharper longer.
  • Ergonomic designed handle: Safer and much more convenient in use.
  • Polypropylene handles: Comfortable molded handles and food safe
  • Dishwasher safe: Easy care (Although hand-washing is recommended by J.A. Henckels).
  • Full warranty: J.A. Henckels stands behind all its knives.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent all-purpose knife for a college student, July 25, 2000
This review is from: J.A. Henckels Twin Five Star 5-Inch Stainless-Steel Serrated Utility Knife (Kitchen)
My parents always used Henckels knives so I've come to expect the same from all knives. I never realized how good Henckels are until I used someone else's; the difference is night and day. I'm a college student with limited income, but I decided to invest in this. The Henckels 5" utility knife is the perfect size for just about any use. It has a nice weight and a comfy, ergonomic handle. It simply does the job - well. What else can I say?

5.0 out of 5 stars Never Dulls, Very Versatile, November 6, 2004
By 
This review is from: J.A. Henckels Twin Five Star 5-Inch Stainless-Steel Serrated Utility Knife (Kitchen)
I have had Henckels knives for years now. They were given to me as gifts but in my lifetime, I will never need to replace these knives. They never get dull and they are so versatile. The 5" serrated utility knife is great for slicing tomatoes when a chef's knife makes them hard to slice. This knife is also great for trimming the fat off of chicken breasts because the fat is gooey and hard to get a hold of with a chef knife. I highly recommend this knife. It's worth the extra money. This knife amongst others are MUST haves!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best knife for tomatoes, May 2, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: J.A. Henckels Twin Five Star 5-Inch Stainless-Steel Serrated Utility Knife (Kitchen)
I purchased this as a replacement to my Henckels set because my first knife 'walked off' somehow after only 5 years of use. Don't know where we lost it, but really missed it when it was gone.
This knife is perfect for slicing tomatoes for a sandwich or for cutting fibrous vegetables. Straight paring knives just don't do the job as well as this serrated blade. As the picture shows, the blade is slightly longer than the handle and fits comfortably in your hand. Simply put, this is one of the most used knives in my kitchen.

The five star series has handles you cannot destroy in the dishwasher; blades you can sharpen repeatedly and that hold an edge for a long time... They simply last longer (if you don't lose them).

try it. You won't be sorry.
