Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Cooks with small hands find this version of the classic French chef's knife fits. It has a pronounced curved cutting edge for rocking through a chopping task. Classic three-rivet handles distinguish Pro S from Henckels's other quality lines, TwinStar, Five Star, and Four Star. Pro S handles are heavier and its knives less weight-forward. The steel used in the Pro S line is identical to that of the Five and Four Star lines. High-tech welding of knives this size and larger combines three steel types into what appears to be a single piece, so a knife's parts have distinct characteristics: a hard edge; a strong, stain-resistant bolster; and a stain- and corrosion-resistant tang. Traditionalists insist on single-piece forging for strength, but Henckels says the invisible welds are actually stronger than the steel. While this chef's knife is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack
From the Manufacturer
 | The J.A. Henckels Twin Professional S (or Pro S) knife series features trustworthy quality and classic three-rivet styling--it’s a line of knives admired by both professional chefs and home cooks of all skill levels. The Twin Pro S line contains knives for all tasks, including the following open stock knife types: parer, bread, peeling, sandwich, utility, carving, steak, chef’s, Granton edge slicer, santoku, and others. Twin Pro S knives are also available in a range of block sets and gift sets, to be sure that your cutlery needs are covered. |
A Reliable Standard in Knife Construction
Twin Pro S 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 Pro S 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 Pro S knives use J.A. Henckels’s Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.
An Ergonomic Handle for Easier Use
 | J.A. Henckels’s Twin Pro S knives boast a comfortable, ergonomic three-rivet handle design that won’t wear against the hand and helps to provide control when doing any cutting task. These durable Novodur handles are perfectly bonded to the full tang on each knife for stability and durability. The impeccably balanced super bolster provides weight and adds balance for safer and more professional cutting. |

4.0 out of 5 stars
plenty nice knife,
By A Customer
This review is from: Henckels Twin Pro S 6-Inch High-Carbon Stainless-Steel Chef's Wide Knife (Kitchen)
Very nice knife. Well balanced knife, although I the handle is quite a bit longer than I would have liked. The handle is actually longer than the handle on my 8" Trident Chef's knife. The length is great for quick tasks where a longer chef's knife is just too cumbersome. The edge keeps quite well.

Makes Quick Work of. . . Everything,

This review is from: Henckels Twin Pro S 6-Inch High-Carbon Stainless-Steel Chef's Wide Knife (Kitchen)
What makes the Wide Chef's Knife different is the sharp slope from the tip to the bolster -- and that's also what makes it work so well for chopping or mincing veggies.Hold the tip down on the chopping block with one finger, and quickly rock the handle up and down. Before you know it, your onions, garlic, parsely, whatever, are as finely chopped as you could want them. Even better, the weight is balanced slightly forward of your grip, so the knife naturally moves right into the job. Less effort, less time, less hassle. Great knife.

This review is from: Henckels Twin Pro S 6-Inch High-Carbon Stainless-Steel Chef's Wide Knife (Kitchen)
Seriously, this may become the most-used knife in our kitchen.The short blade is perfect for my fiance -- her hands are much smaller than mine. And the way the wide blade sharply (no pun intended) angles up to the point make this kinfe absolutely perfect for all those mincing jobs. Oh, and in typical Henckels fasion, the blade is weighted forward of the tang, so it naturally moves into the food as you slice, making your job that much easier. Pair this with Henckles 7-inch Santuko blade, and you have a great starter set for any kitchen.
