This set is designed for both fine detailed tasks as well as larger chopping and slicing jobs. The 8-inch chef’s knife is ideal for all-around tasks like slicing chicken and chopping herbs, and the 4-inch paring knife is handy for peeling vegetables and segmenting fruit.

ZWILLING Pro boasts a unique curved bolster that acts as an extension of the hand, supporting the professional pinch grip, with thumb and index finger on the blade, for safe cutting and less fatigue. The blade was designed with a broad curve in the front to facilitate the rocking motion of Western cutting, while the straight back is ideal for the chopping motion Japanese knives were designed for. The full length of the blade can be used when cutting and can be sharpened from bolster to tip.
