Proudly made in Germany, this Four Star knife block set features the essential knives for everyday meal prep. Peel apples, remove blemishes, and create beautiful garnishes with the 4" paring knife. Cleanly cut through tough-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside foods, including tomatoes, bagels, and salami with the bread knife. And chop herbs, dice onions, and mince garlic with the all-rounder 5.5" prep or 8" chef's knife. Four Star knives are made of proprietary special-formula steel that has been perfected for almost 300 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 exceptionally sturdy, balanced, and flexible blades.
