ZWILLINGTwin Signature 5.5-inch Prep Knife, Razor-Sharp, Made in Company-Owned German Factory with Special Formula Steel perfected for almost 300 Years, Dishwasher Safe

This knife arrived razor sharp and is light weight and well constructed with a thin blade and comfortable handle. It is maintaining its sharpness too, although I'm sure it will need sharpening eventually. It is a good size for small fruits and veggies and garlic/herbs when the big chef's knife seems like overkill. I often use it in my hand like a paring knife too, even with my small hands. In fact, with a vegetable peeler and this knife, there are hardly any times I reach for the paring knife now (really only for thumb-rotation cuts or to open tofu containers). So I think this is a more versatile companion to my chef's knife than my paring knife if I had to pick between the two.

knife is just the right size - extremely sharp!

I’m a Zwilling twin signature fan due to the way the knives fit in my hand. I love them my collection is now 9 knives displayed on my magnetic bar. So excited that I was able to find this 5.5 prep knife. Its been sold out on the Zwilling website for awhile. It’s definitely sharp and it did not disappoint. Already used it to cut fruit and vegetables. I’m sure I’ll be reaching for it instead of the chef knife for smaller jobs.

I have many quality knives but I am always on the look out for another useful addition. This is such a knife. I find myself reaching for it often while prepping many types of food, vegetables mostly. It is lighter than my other Zwilling or Wusthof knives but perfect for fine slicing and very adaptable. Super sharp.

Gone are my days of squashing tomatoes when I tried to slice them or having to saw through other food products. We have started the conversion to this brand of knives and they are fantastic. I have a hard time spending this much money on a single knife but my chef cousin tells me I'll never have to buy another one. We cook and prep a lot at my house so, in the long run, this will save us time and money.

I love this knife because it is the perfect utility size, comfortable to hold and sharpens easily. I have many knives in the TWIN Signature line and appreciate the quality.

Excellent all purpose kitchen knife. Replaced an old cheap knife and added to my set of Henkels knives, which, with proper care, will last a lifetime.

I sort of wonder if this is a real knife from ZWILLING J.A. Henckels. It is kind of thin as compared to other knives I have from them, but maybe that is by design. Anyway, love this knife for chopping vegetables, etc.

This is an excellent smaller, knife for chopping food when a larger chef knife is not needed. The steel is somewhat thinner than anticipated but is an advantage for chopping. An excellent product for the price and highly recommended.
