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. This 7-inch santoku is a Japanese chef's knife, a low-tip style with a broad blade. The cutting edge is less curved so the santoku provides less rocking action than a European-style chef's knife, but for straight-down slicing and precise chopping it's superb. 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, these 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 (USA Patent #5791055). The quality of Twin Select can be recognized by the Zwilling J.A. Henckels logo featured on the end of the handle. |

Favorite Knife,

This review is from: Henckels Twin Select 7-Inch Santoku Knife (Kitchen)
I shopped for months because I hate to spend big bucks on things that are likely to get dropped, mangled, or otherwise misused (big family). Picked this knife because the handle let me rock & chop without striking my knuckles. Probably the other Twin handles would perform just as well in that regard, but I've come to love the whole-silver look, and bought a fillet knife as well. At first I wanted a hollow-edge, but at the time none were available, so I settled for the plain - haven't noticed much difference with food sticking, and haven't regretted 'settling' - though when I add a smaller chef's or santoku I'll look for the hollow edge just to have the different blade. Excellent knife - and got it at a great price because I scavenged.

Henckel Twin Santoku knife,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Henckels Twin Select 7-Inch Santoku Knife (Kitchen)
Attractive appearance. Perfectly sharp out of the box. My one complaint is that it does not come with a plastic sleeve to protect both the blade and the person opening the box.
