ZWILLING Professional S 5.5-inch Razor-Sharp German Flexible Boning Knife, Made in Company-Owned German Factory with Special Formula Steel perfected for almost 300 Years, Dishwasher Safe,

I'm a Henckles fan so was not surprised to find this chief knife to be more than adequate for my uses. I cook nightly and often chop foods of all textures. This knife retains it's edge, feels great in my hand, which is on the large side for a woman, and has a nice weight. I also like the 10" length, which is not common anymore. I'm glad to have a handle that will survive the use of the knife. My previous knife, a purchase made in Germany in 1969, was Solingen steel but the handle was wood. I only washed it by hand but, sadly, the handle finally deteriorated beyond repair. The blade is still good, despite having been used to attempt chopping a frozen pkg of vegetables! Won't do that again.! it was pricey but this knife will be passed on to my grandchildren and is worth every penny

Good product

Great knife to trim Brisket. Very sharp out of the box!

I received this knife for Christmas. I have a thing about good quality knives. I am not a chef; but, I love quality. This knife stole my heart. Her name is Bertha and she has her own resting place in my home. Until now, my favorite did not have a name. But she was excellent and I know she feels neglected these days. I feel a little guilty neglecting her. She is only 8 inches and that is fine. Personally, I prefer a big 10 inch blade when working on meat. Bertha is my desired 10 inches and has an edge sharp enough to almost shave. I love the weight of Bertha and I want to get her sisters sometime in the future. I also would like to purchase a wall-mount resting place for her and her sisters. I give this knife 5 stars for Edge, weight, grip and shape. She will last several lifetimes with a little care. You will not regret this purchase.

I will start to say, I generally love ZWILLING knives, at least the higher quality lines that they have. I have a ZWILLING Damascus set that are my favorite go-to knives, but the set did not include a boning knife. If you do a lot of cooking, like I do, then a good boning knife is essential to your arsenal. Unfortunately, I could not find a matching Damascus boning knife, but after reading the reviews and being familiar with the brand, I figured this would make a nice addition to my go-to knife set and the handle was similar to the others. I was not wrong! It is an excellent knife and gives you plenty of maneuverability when cutting around the rib cage of a chicken and etcetera. I would highly recommend this knife or any in the Professional S series (I have a few). Now, if I could only find a highly flexible filet knife in Damascus, I would be all set (pun intended, sorry)!
