User Reviews
We have used Henckels' knives forr several years and were adding to the collection. This one, like the others is a great choice. It fits nicely in the hand and does what it is meant to do. I would add a sixth star if it weren't for the price. Paying $100 for a knife is something I will never get used to. -- a great knife
I've owned Henckels knives for years, and with the exception of the lower end product line, have always been pleased with the quality. Over the past few years I've had troubles with carpel-tunnel syndrome, so shopped for knives that would be easier on my wrists--and this one is exactly as I'd hoped! Ergonomically, it's perfect. Feels good in the hand, wrist is straight, no stress. Another benefit is the weight & balance of the Twin Cuisine line; it's rather heavy, but the balance is perfect. Overall, an excellent quality tool! I liked it so much I ordered several others and have actually replaced most of my older knives with the Twin Cuisine product.
One caveat: this sucker is SHARP! My husband (no dummy with a knife) sliced his finger open first time he used it. -- A Heavy-Duty Knife!
I love this brand and style. Great for the home cook or chef! My husband is a chef and loves them! -- Great Value!
