## Description

FOUR STAR is the top-selling knife series of ZWILLING J.A. Henckels worldwide. Honed and hand-finished by the most skilled artisans, this celebrated collection is the model of safety, ergonomics, and comfort. Thanks to their seamless transition from bolster to handle, the knives are comfortable to use for long periods of time. The bolster provides the right balance while acting as a safe finger guard. The knives are made of proprietary special formula steel that has been perfected for over 280 years. Combined with ZWILLING's signature ice-hardening technique, these FRIODUR blades are harder, sharper, they will NOT STAIN or chip and they retain their sharpness longer. Precision-forged from a single piece of steel, the SIGMAFORGE knives have an exceptionally sturdy, balanced and flexible blade.

Review: Lightweight, but sturdy and sharp - This 8" chef's knife is a budget version of their top tier offerings. The savings are in the handle which is a non-riveted molded synthetic material. It is comfortable and great for medium to small hands. Zwilling did not skimp on the metal, it is a high-quality German steel. This is a quality knife! Right out of the box, I used it to prepare the vegetables for an American goulash. It slices with ease. It is razor sharp out of the box. This is a light knife while not feeing flimsy in any way. In fact, it feels solid. If you are looking for a low-cost professional quality chef knife, this will do the job. It is a renaissance for chef's tools these days. There are many good knives in this price range. I believe that this one is in that top tier.
Review: Great Chef Knife - I really like the edge, balance and comfort of handle. It slices through potatoes quite easily and everything else I have sliced with it. I purchased it because I had never owned a Henckels knife before and wanted to try this one because of the comfortable looking handle. I was not disappointed. Nice knife and I would recommend if the price doesn't get too high.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there a difference between this knife and j.a. henckels international forged synergy 8-inch chef's knife which costs $35 ?**
A: International is made in China.  Good value.  Could use 3 rivets in handle instead of 2. 4 star is heavier which means that it is easier to cut tougher items like carrots, meats, etc.  4 star is made in Germany.  I personally use and have used Twin for many years professionally.  Some for over 30 years.  Just never put any good knife in the dishwasher! Hope that helps.

**Q: How wide (in millimeters) is the top "edge" of the blade, near the grip -- the part your hand bears down on during use?  I like 4mm.**
A: If you mean the very top, it's 3.175 mm.  But that's deceptive, because while that's where the blade per se ends, it continues on to enfold about16 mm of the handle, providing more strength.

**Q: where is this knife made**
A: I believe this knife is made in Germany!

**Q: What is the blade width?**
A: I measure it at 45mm or just 2 hairs over 1 3/4 inches. Maybe 1/32+ over 1 3/4. This was at it's widest point. Hope this helps you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect size, balance, and always sharp
*by E***8 on May 16, 2023*

I have had a set of eight Heckles Four Star knives for over 35 years. My original set did not have a smaller chef’s knife, so I bought a Henkels sankotu to fill the gap years ago. Unfortunately, the sankotu just never seemed right. So, I finally broke down and bought this knife. I should have bought it years ago. This knife is masterful. I love the weight and balance. It holds an edge very well, and it does everything I need it to do. It’s the perfect addition to my professional kitchen tool set.
