ZWILLING J.A . HENCKELS' innovative forging technology has produced a revolutionary knife design featuring a full horizontal tang. With added mass in the contoured handle to enhance the cutting properties, TWIN Pro series is a powerful addition to any cutlery collection. The all-rounder for professional and hobby chefs, also called a cook's knife, is a versatile kitchen knife. The heft, weight and balance of this knife allow it to be used for both heavy duty work with thicker cuts of vegetables, fruits and meats or mincing and chopping herbs. The curved blade enables a rocking cut and wide surface enables knuckle clearance and gathering of cut materials.
