ZWILLING TWIN Gourmet Classic 9-pc Steak Knife Block Set

Amazon.com Removed from their slots in this set's rubber-footed wood storage block, these eight knives slice any steak, chop, or roast into bite-size pieces. Gourmet is one of Henckels's inexpensive cutlery lines. These knives don't have bolsters, but that feature isn't vital when confronting a rib eye. The high-carbon, stainless-steel 4-1/2-inch blades are stamped, not forged, and because they are serrated on the upper halves, they tend to tear meat fibers rather than slice precisely through them the way straight-edge knives do. On the other hand, the fine serrations reduce the tearing effect, and the blades' lower halves are straight. The synthetic, three-rivet, full-tang handles are classically styled. --Fred Brack What's in the Box Eight 4-1/2-inch steak knives, beechwood storage block Product Description PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The ZWILLING TWIN Gourment Classic line features precision steel and a single piece stamped construction.
