Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Pro S 2-3/4-Inch High Carbon Stainless-Steel Peeling Knife Feature

• Curved blade ideal for peeling, cleaning fruits and vegetables
• Forged, high-carbon, stainless-steel blade
• Black synthetic, three-rivet full-tang handle
• Made in Germany
• Lifetime warranty against defects

With its wicked little curve and pointed tip, the 2-3/4-inch blade of this specialty knife peels fruits and vegetables with delicate precision, removes blemishes, and shapes them as desired. Unlike longer top-grade Henckels knives, which are formed by a high-tech welding process, this knife is forged from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel. Its handle has a full tang, and its synthetic grips are attached by three rivets. Although the knife is dishwasher-safe, it should be hand washed to protect its edge. It carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

From the Manufacturer

The J.A. Henckels Twin Professional S (or Pro S) knife series features trustworthy quality and classic three-rivet styling--it’s a line of knives admired by both professional chefs and home cooks of all skill levels. The Twin Pro S line contains knives for all tasks, including the following open stock knife types: parer, bread, peeling, sandwich, utility, carving, steak, chef’s, Granton edge slicer, santoku, and others. Twin Pro S knives are also available in a range of block sets and gift sets, to be sure that your cutlery needs are covered.

A Reliable Standard in Knife Construction

Twin Pro S 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 Pro S 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 Pro S knives use J.A. Henckels’s Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.

An Ergonomic Handle for Easier Use

J.A. Henckels’s Twin Pro S knives boast a comfortable, ergonomic three-rivet handle design that won’t wear against the hand and helps to provide control when doing any cutting task. These durable Novodur handles are perfectly bonded to the full tang on each knife for stability and durability. The impeccably balanced super bolster provides weight and adds balance for safer and more professional cutting.
