Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Distinguished by 18/10 stainless-steel, satin-finish handles, Twin Select knives embody Henckels's world-renowned craftsmanship. Henckels uses a high-tech welding process to form the knives in its first-rate cutlery lines. This process combines three types of high-carbon stainless steel into a single piece so that each part of a knife--blade, bolster, and tang--performs optimally. With a 5-inch serrated blade shaped like a center-tip style paring knife, this is the knife to reach for when a job doesn't require a specialized blade. It will slice tomatoes neatly and chop a head of lettuce. Shaped like a gentle wave to fit the hand snugly, the ergonomically designed handle contains a full rat-tail tang and is fully watertight with no gaps. Though the knife is dishwasher-safe, it should be hand washed to protect the edge. It carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
From the Manufacturer
 | The Twin Select range is a master blend of function and design. These forged knives feature ergonomic 18/10 stainless steel handles combined with blades made from J.A. Henckels’s exclusive high-carbon, no-stain steel formula. The result is a beautiful, award-winning knife that exudes elegance and is a pleasure to use. The Twin Select line contains knives for all tasks, including the following open stock knife types: parer, bread, sandwich, carving, chef’s, santoku, and others. Twin Select 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 Select 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 Select 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 Select knives use J.A. Henckels’s Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.
New Ergonomic Handle Technology
 | The Twin Select series features comfortable, ergonomic, stainless-steel handles that accommodate each hand size while improving function, convenience, and safety. These patented handles are hygienic, colorfast, and break-proof (U.S. Patent #5791055). The quality of Twin Select can be recognized by the Zwilling J.A. Henckels logo featured on the end of the handle. |

Not a Great Value,
This review is from: J.A. Henckels Twin Select 5-Inch Serrated Utility Knife (Kitchen)
There's nothing wrong with this knife. Frankly though, it doesn't cut fruits and vegetables any better than a $5 serrated knife from Chicago Cutlery.
The handle is a bit more comfortable than cheaper knives, but the design of the blade doesn't seem to offer much advantage when cutting.
