ZWILLING Pro 7-pc Knife Block Set with Bonus Sharpener

Beautiful knives.Great balance. Very sharp. Pleasure to use.

This is my first "high end" set of knives. This was not just an upgrade for me but a giant leap in quality. The knives that come with this set are perfect for most of my needs as a home cook and did not need any touching up out of the box. They are scary sharp. The bonus sharpener is a nice addition if you are a novice to sharpening, however I'm not a huge fan of that style of sharpener and prefer to hand sharpen via wet stones when needed. One thing that did stick out to me and is keeping me from rating 5 stars is how the knives and scissors fit in the block. There is just a little too much slop in my opinion and gives a since of the knives being top heavy. I believe this to be a personal preference. Overall I'm pleased with this purchase.

We have had cheap broken knives for years, and decided make a purchase of what we thought would be a small "quality" knife set. We would also be adding to collection as time went on. The bread knife was bent and the 8" Chef's knife was also bent. 2 out of the 4 knives were bent.! Needless to say we will not be purchasing Zwilling Pro knives again. Zwilling quality control needs some work , or we received repackaged items that were returned. The seller was helpful with trying to replace, but this is too much, and returning ASAP.

If you know much about good knives and a good balanced knife with a good edge the PRO series is very nice knife for the $$$. On sale worth every penny. Take good care of them and respect them for what they are and they will last many years.Damn sharp too, slipped first use and damn near to the top of my thumb off. Was used to an older set of Chicago Cutlery knives and forgot how sharp a good knife is!

After I ordered the set (but prior to receiving the shipment), I noticed multiple reviews claiming that these knives are not "real" Zwilling Pro, but some lessor brand from Zwilling. The listing doesn't help out here as it call the knives "twin" in several places. Once I received and unboxed the package, I verified that these are indeed Zwilling Pro knives and, as such, are arguably the best knives that Zwilling makes and the knife brand that others are compared to. They are made from forged, ice-hardened steel, ergonomic and well weighted. My only and very minor complaint is that the block's footprint takes up more counter space than necessary. Still, I can recommend this set without hesitation.

These knives are doing what they are made for. So be careful they are very sharp! It is nice to have a set instead of varies mixed knives. Looks nice in my kitchen.

Check the advertising with the PRO on the knife and check the box and the knives, they are totally cheaper NOT PRO knives. I have one and decided to buy the set, they are a cheaper version. Really shady! Won't upload a photo.

I've had these for 5 years. I use them very frequently, and the entire set is great all together. They do need to be sharpened from time to time, and should be washed and dried immediately after use to prevent water stains or rust spots. The only knives that I felt the need to buy to supplement this set were a set of steak knives and a filet knife. I actually bought a larger santoku knife, but found it unnecessary.I'll note that although the santoku knife is a smaller one, it is quite useful for a variety of tasks and I find that it, and the paring knife, are my primary knives from the set. I only use the chef's knife for more difficult to cut items that require a bit more force (as the chef's has a thicker spine it allows you to place the palm of your hand for additional force).Overall a great combination set from a top manufacturer.
