A new go-to knifeFour Star is made in Germany, forged from high carbon German steel and is guaranteed to last a lifetime just like the Pro knife. Its fine edge is razor sharp and will have amazing edge retention. The molded handle is the perfect solution for someone who prefers a lighter knife but doesn't want to sacrifice quality.
The prep knife is newer knife on the scene. It's kind of a cross between a parer, utility and a small chef knife. It can handle lots of small tasks, like potatoes and apples, but is still large enough to take on an onion, celery or even cutting up chicken. I've found it to be quite handy on a meat and cheese board.

Very handy for a single ladyI bought this knife because I live alone, and love to cook. I cook daily because I'm not one for leftovers! I need a knife that can cut, slice, dice and mince and this does the trick. The prep knife handles all the jobs a chef knife is used for, but is much smaller and much easier on the budget.
The knife is well balanced and has a bolster which adds some weight and comfort. The German steel is top of the line and stays sharp much longer than my previous knives. This knife has become an invaluable tool for me, and am so pleased with it's performance.

Handy SizeThis prep knife is excellent for multiple cutting tasks. It's small enough to use for apples and potatoes yet large and sharp enough to use for onions dicing and cubing meat. It has a curved tip for a rocking motion. The steel is super sharp and remains that way use after use. It only needs to be sharpened once per year with normal use. You will like the way the Four Star handle feels in your hand it has a light yet balanced non slip feel and the slight drop on the end keeps the knife in place as you slice.

Fabulous Prep KnifeI love this knife because it is light, thin,perfectly balanced and hugely versatile. It is the perfect prep knife. Hold it on it's handle or further up towards the blade: and you have 3 knives in one. I have given this knife as a gift twice.

my new sidekickThis is the best knife I never knew I needed. Its bigger than my pairing knife and the offset handle allows for easy work on the cutting board. I use it for all my prep and smaller jobs that dont warrant pulling out my full size chefs knife. The Four Star line is a classic. The handle material is very comfortable to hold and the texture gives a great grip. The forged German steel and construction are a sign of true quality. The blade is razor sharp, stays that way for a long time and is very easy to maintain. This knife is a must have.

Perfect Prep KnifeI love my 5.5-inch Prep Knife. Since receiving it, I have used it several times every day. It is lightweight and easy to use. It is convenient for preparing vegetables and fruits. Zwilling knives are very high-quality tools that no kitchen should be without. Having the right tools makes it a pleasure to prepare and cook healthy meals for my family.
