They are manufactured from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel for strength, and have a symmetrical cutting edge that is sharp, stable and easy to maintain, meaning you can keep your knife as sharp as the day it was made. Sharp, durable and easy to maintain Precision forged from a single piece of high quality steel Made by ZWILLING in Germany The ergonomic handle gives a secure grip and transitions seamlessly from the bolster, making the knife hygienic as food debris cannot settle at the join. The plastic handle part is permanently cast around the single piece of steel - or tang - that extends into the handle. This, along with the bolster and finger guard, helps to give weight and balance to the knife for comfortable, safe use. ZWILLING FOUR STAR at a Glance The Cutting Edge The cutting edge of the blade is sharp & stable for safe, accurate use. A sharp blade is safer than a dull blade as it requires less pressure to cut, meaning you are less likely to slip. The edge is symmetrical, meaning the knife can be used whether you are left or right handed. It will retain its initial sharpness well, and is easy to maintain when the time comes for honing and re-sharpening. Symmetrical cutting edge Approximately 15° per side Excellent stability & easy to maintain The Bolster & Finger Guard The bolster is the transition from blade to handle. It helps to give weight and balance to the knife which enables easy, comfortable use. It is seamlessly joined to the plastic handle part meaning you won't get calluses from extended use. The finger guard helps to stop your middle finger from slipping onto the heel of the blade. Gives weight & balance Smooth transition to handle Finger guard for safety Ergonomic Handle The black, plastic handle part is robust and scratch-resistant. It is cast around the tang of the knife and joined smoothly to the bolster. The tang is the part of the single piece of steel that extends into the handle from the bolster. The heel of the handle is designed to lock in the little finger, giving a very safe and secure grip. Fully concealed tang Robust, scratch-resistant plastic Comfortable & easy to grip Back of Blade The back of the blade is polished and is smooth to the touch. This is useful when you are mincing herbs & want to place the palm of your hand on the back of the blade to help with the rocking motion. The back of the blade runs seamlessly into the top of the bolster, giving a comfortable grip & preventing calluses forming on the thumb & index finger when using the pinch grip. Back of blade polished for smoothness Smooth transition to bolster The Making of a Fully Forged ZWILLING Knife SIGMAFORGE Precision Forged During forging, the steel for all SIGMAFORGE knives is only heated at the bolster. As a result, the quality and precisely balanced structure of the steel that makes up the rest of the knife – and critically – the blade, remains unaltered. This in turn means SIGMAFORGE precision-forging is the first step in the manufacturing process that allows for outstanding hardness, cutting-edge retention and flexibility of fully forged ZWILLING knives. Knife forged from an individual blank Targeted heating maintains steel structure Bolster shape formed under pressure FRIODUR Ice-Hardened FRIODUR ice-hardening is a tempering process that harmonises the molecular structure of the steel, creating exceptional flexibility, helping to prevent cracking of the blade. It also gives extra protection against corrosion & a toughness which increases durability. Ice-hardening also helps to increase the steel's hardness. This enables the sharp cutting edge to be retained, so that the knife will hold its sharp edge for longer before maintenance is needed. Improves hardness of the steel Increases corrosion-resistance Offers better material flexibility High Quality Steel ZWILLING special formula steel is made up of an exact ratio of carbon and chromium which provides the ideal balance of hardness and corrosion resistance for the knife. The steel has a Rockwell Hardness of approximately 57, meaning that the blade's cutting edge is stable, will retain its sharpness well and is easy to maintain and re-sharpen, using a set of steels, a pull through sharpener or on a set of whetstones. Optimum ratio of carbon and chromium Robust, durable and corrosion-resistant Rockwell Hardness of 57 Review: Great. - Usual Zwilling quality and function.
