Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Distinguished by 18/10 stainless-steel and 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 the knife--blade, bolster, and tang--performs optimally. With slightly serrated teeth on either side of the blade along with a slight curve, this grapefruit knife not only deftly removes grapefruit from its rind, but it is also handy for coring tomatoes, slicing and scooping avocados, cutting kiwi, and more. 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. The knife measures approximately 8-1/2 by 1-1/2 inches and carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

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. |

We were looking for a high quality stainless knife, that would last a lifetime under normal homeowner use. This knife was exactly what we were looking for. It is a good deal at this price. After using it, we bought a second one for a friend.

The grapefruit diet, need I say more? This knife cuts through the frustration of getting to the meat of the fruit. Before I got this knife it took me a long time to prepare the fruit for eating because the outer rind is very tough and hard to cut with an ordinary knife. This knife was well designed, except for one minor model design: the handle. It would be better if the handle was solid, instead of open thru the middle. Also, it should come with a sheath, because it is a double sided knife.Happy grapefruiting!
