One of the newest premium lines from Zwilling J.A. Henckels, Twin Cuisine was introduced in 2004 with a major revelation: it's the first high-quality forged cutlery line to feature a molded handle with a visible, full-length tang that runs horizontally. In fact, the handle is absolutely stunning, with the shiny tang curving slightly as it courses through the black nonslip polypropylene. With no rivets or gaps, the ergonomic handle provides seamless comfort, while the full tang adds weight for precision balance. The single-piece blade, forged from high-carbon, no-stain steel and strengthened in Henckels's exclusive Friodur ice-hardening process, retains its sharp edge through extensive cutting and chopping. Made in Germany and covered by a lifetime warranty, Twin Cuisine knives are dishwasher-safe but are best cared for when washed and dried by hand.
This 10-piece set of Twin Cuisine knives and accessories makes a truly exceptional collection for the aspiring home chef, especially one who appreciates Asian cuisine. For making sushi or sashimi, the 3-inch kudamono parer and 5-inch hollow-edge santoku in the set cut ultra-thin slices of fish and vegetables thanks to their special blades. The 5-inch serrated utility and 6-inch smooth utility work wonders at slicing fruits and vegetables, the thin-bladed, flexible 5-1/2-inch boning knife gracefully bones fish and meat, and the heavy 8-inch chef's knife is a must-have for the chopping, dicing, and mincing needs of any kitchen. Also included in the set are a pair of kitchen shears and a 9-inch sharpening steel for keeping blades perfectly sharp. All the items safely store in the angled, natural-finish hardwood block stamped with the Henckels logo. An extra slot allows the addition of another knife; smaller sets are also available. --Ann Bieri

From the Manufacturer
| Twin Cuisine is the first quality forged knife to combine the comfort of a truly ergonomic, molded handle with the precision weight and balance of a full horizontal tang. Plus, the Twin Cuisines exclusive, award-winning patented handle design is a new standard in fine cutlery (U.S. design patent #D524,121). The series is available in many styles for numerous cutting tasks. Twin Cuisine is also available in a variety of block sets and gift sets. The Twin Cuisine series truly is a masterful blend of form and function. | |
A Higher Standard in Knife Construction
Twin Cuisine knives are traditionally forged from a single piece of J.A. Henckelss exclusive h-gh carbon, no-stain steel formula. The result is a knife with high durability, professional strength, and weight. Twin Cuisine also uses J.A. Henckelss Friodur ice-hardening process, which results in a blade that has excellent cutting-edge retention and corrosion resistance. The blade edge is precision honed and laser controlled to maintain a sharper and consistent blade angle.
New Ergonomic Handle Technology
| The Twin Cuisine handle features exclusive new and innovative handle technology: a full horizontal tang without rivets. High-impact polypropylene is bonded with J.A. Henckelss high-carbon, no-stain steel, resulting in a remarkably comfortable handle with a smooth shape and no gaps. The world-famous Zwilling J.A. Henckels logo is etched on the end of every Twin Cuisine knife handle, indicating its quality. | |

Henckels Twin Cuisine 10-Piece Block Set
Test Drive First The ergonomic handles are great for me, but for this kind of investment you should probably visit a local store to test them out first. You can rest assured that the Henckels blades are some of the highest quality made, but if you don't like the way the knife feels in your hand then a great blade won't compensate. I did 'test' a variety of Henckels ergonomic knives before deciding on these and I haven't been disappointed.
