Stamped instead of forged
If you're looking for a stamped knife which is cut from a single sheet of metal as opposed to a heavier forged bolster (steel that's been pressed and formed into a shape) then this is a great choice for you. It is made in Germany from high quality corrosion resistant steel. It will retain it's sharp edge longer and has a full tang (the steel continues through to the end of the handle) which provides a nice weight distribution and feel in your hand.

Priced right for German Cutlery
Always try to buy the best I can afford. Went with the Zwilling Gourmet because it is made in Germany with German steel, but priced like some of the competition made in Asia.
Has a full tang for durability, riveted handle, for classic look, and high carbon steel which resists staining, holds an edge and is easy to maintain.
This is my all purpose knife that I use everyday for chopping, cutting, and mincing. Nice grip, feels very comfortable in the hand, and it it light weight which prevents fatigue. Planning on purchasing a paring and bread knife from the same line.

Zwilling J.A.Henckels are true champs!
Its the quality of the product that makes you come back. My grandfather who passed away some 25 years ago (I’m 57!) would always show me his little manicure scissors with the twins emblem and told me how great they were, he had them for many years in his possession. I once gifted him a new pair that came with a little metal cover for the scissor tips. As good as the first. When purchasing my gourmet knife I had no doubt about how great it would be, and I’m proud of owning and using my Chef knife and plan to keep it for many years, Cheers to Zwilling-J.A.Henckels

Great Option
The Gourmet 8" chef's knife is a great addition to my culinary collection. I love the weight, and the full tang which makes the knife durable enough to cut through hard items like carrots, potato and winter squash.
This is my go to everyday knife. Great for chopping, slicing,and mincing. Comfortable grip, and nice balance. This knife makes preparing food effortless, and has really made the time in the kitchen much easier and more enjoyable. Great investment.

Comfortable Quality Knie
Lighter than the forged knives but has the same quality German steel blade. And an 8" German made chef for this price is a steal. Blade stays sharp, performs well slicing and dicing veggies and meats. Comfortable knife to use as it fits well in your hand and the weight is such that you can use the knife for a long time without stressing your wrist and arm.

Great knife for the price!
I am new to cooking, so I was so happy to be able to find a knife made in Germany that was in my price range. I am so glad that this knife is lighter than some of the other knives I've used because I find it easier to use. I love the classic design and think this is a great beginner knife!

Stamped vs. Forged
I started with this stamped Chef knife. It's made in Germany, sharp comfortable, not too heavy. I have since upgraded to the Zwillling Pro chef. It is also made in Germany, forged, very comfortable, a little more hefty. I guess it all depends upon which feels best in your hand.

Great knife
This is a really premium stamped knife. It looks a lot like the Zwilling Pro, and the stainless steel also has been ice-hardened like the Pro, which will help give the Gourmet chef knife extra durability and sharpness than most stamped knives. A great starter knife!

How do you measure the knife? Is it just the blade length or does it include the handle?
The blade is 8" long.

What steel grade is used on this Gourmet 8inch Chef's Knife? And where can I find the steel info on all your knife sets? It doesn't say on any info I can find, and I do not like certain steel's for my kitchen knives after years of use! Thx
Our Zwilling/Twin knives are made of our proprietary special formula carbon steel. We cannot release the exact composition.

What is the warranty on your knives I have one that the knife inside the handle broke vertical but the handle itself isn’t broken. Love the knife but it wiggles when being used.
