Reviews & Questions
Henckels Modernist 8-inch Chef's Knife is rated 4.5 out of 5 by 29.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Don't Knock It Until You've Tried It! Never thought I would be a fan of an all metal knife. But like many things these days, I'm an old dog learning new tricks. This knife - this entire line - rocks! And it looks good too! These are fully forged knives - a sign of top quality. They are made with one of Zwilling's proprietary steels - so they won't stain, they will stay sharp. And they are designed for comfort with optimal sized grips for most people. They are also lighter than most knives. So if weight is an issue for you, you will like these knives. This 8-inch chef's knife is a perfect length and width for all your cooking needs. Very versatile. And a great value!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gorgeous Used this knife at my friend's house and liked it so much I bought one for my kitchen. Love the modern design and the smooth transition from the blade to the handle makes it so comfortable. Well balanced, yet no too heavy. Use it every day for slicing, chopping, and mincing. The handle does not show fingerprints which was a concern of mine, and is not at all slippery when working with wet hands. Love the price and thinking of purchasing a paring and utility to so I'll be set.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great all stainless steel look The name really speaks for itself, I love how modern of a look this Chef knife is. I was looking for something with this aesthetic and it’s perfect. It’s a great forged German stainless steel Chef knife, a blade shape you can use to cut, slice, chop anything and everything. The textured handle contours nicely to my hand and has a good weight to it as well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from cool look great blade I like the modern look and feel of this knife. The blade is very sharp and easy to maintain. The solid steel construction feels good in my hand. The satin finish of the handle looks real nice in my block. The full bolster gives me the grip I am used to with this modern sleek design.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Nice Sleek Look This knife is down right pretty. Its also made out of high quality German steel so durable for the long haul. I thought the handle would be slippery when wet but it has a brushed steel so no problem. The knife is light weight, a nice option to the heavy handled knives.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Forged from high carbon German steel with a fine edge blade makes it a very good knife. It is sharp, will have good edge retention and has great weight and balance. The chef knife is the kitchen work horse and can handle most of your cutting tasks.
