The Professional "S" series of kitchen knives by Zwilling J.A. Henckels is a classic for the home and professional kitchen. Each Professional "S" knife is forged in Germany from one piece of high-carbon stainless steel, and each blade is hand-honed to assure that it stays sharper longer.

The Henckels TWIN Professional "S" 2-Piece Deluxe Asian Knife Set pairs the 7" Hollow Edge Santoku with the 3" Kudamono Hollow Edge Paring Knife. The Santoku is an all-purpose knife for slicing and chopping. The Kudamono Paring Knife is designed for slicing and dicing small fruits and vegetables.The hollow, or granton, edge on both pieces in this set allows air between the blade and the item being cut, allowing for extra-thin cutting and slicing.

Each Professional "S" Series knife is forged in Germany from stainless steel that has an ideal balance of chromium and carbon content. Blades are forged with the patented SIGMAFORGE process, which achieves perfect geometry, high precision and improved stability, forging the entire blade and tang from one piece of this steel. As with all FRIODUR Henckels knives, the blades of the knives in this collection have been ice-hardened to enhance their quality. The result of this patented process is a blade that is especially flexible and resistant to rusting, corrosion, staining and pitting. The blade has a full tang, adding to the balance and strength of the piece.

The full bolster of each Professional "S" knife results in superior knife balance, and also ensures safety by preventing fingers from slipping onto the blade.

Though Professional "S" knives are dishwasher safe, it is highly recommended that they be cleaned by hand.
