Description
This 4.5-inch petite cook’s knife is shorter than a chef's knife yet wider than a prep knife, making this your go-to tool for chopping herbs, smashing garlic, and slicing carrots.
ZWILLING Pro boasts a unique curved bolster that acts as an extension of the hand, supporting the professional pinch grip, with thumb and index finger on the blade, for safe cutting and less fatigue. The blade was designed with a broad curve in the front to facilitate the rocking motion of Western cutting, while the straight back is ideal for the chopping motion Japanese knives were designed for. The full length of the blade can be used when cutting and can be sharpened from bolster to tip.
- Curved bolster acts as an extension of the hand, encouraging cutting with improved precision, safety, and comfort
- SIGMAFORGE knife is forged from a single piece of special formula high-carbon stainless steel
- Ice-hardened FRIODUR blade starts sharper, stays sharper longer
- Precision-honed blade and laser-controlled edge ensures ideal cutting angle for sharpness and durability
- Full tang and handle are triple riveted for superb stability and comfort
- Dishwasher safe, hand wash recommended
- Made in Germany

A great little blade
Can you say a knife is cute? Well I’m saying it for this knife, it definitely is cute! A perfect blade to accompany that amazing charcuterie or dessert board, this knife being smaller in size, is great for slicing and chopping fruits, veggies, cheese, and even starchy foods like potatoes. Not as daunting in size, this is a great knife that can still be used on a cutting board. With this forged stainless steel knife that has been ice hardened, you get a very sharp and durable knife. With the curved bolster, it provides easy gripping and comfort from the blade to handle and won’t wear out your hand.

Surprisingly versatile
I gave this knife to my daughter and her husband. It was something that they wanted and to this day they are thrilled. They are young, vegetarian and have a small apartment. They say it is perfect for their needs.
I prefer longer, larger knives, but I can see what they mean. Its comfortable in my hand, gets through hard squash and pumpkin as well as soft fleshed tomatoes. It makes quick work of onions, carrots, garlic, celery. It has the stability of a small cleaver, the arc of a chef's knife and the lightness of a prep knife. I think they made a good choice.

great prep knife
This is such a useful knife. It is short and wide making it ideal for vegetable and herb prep. The German forged steel blade is strong and very sharp. It holds an edge for a long time and is easy to maintain. The curved bolster encourages the proper holding of the knife and makes it comfortable to do so. The shape is ideal for chopping and the slight curve makes it good for slicing as well. Its great for precise work and is amazing at mincing.

This nice Pro knife handles so many tasks - cutting a lot of vegetables for soups, using to cut through hard rinds - like melons and squash, and even for meats. Such versatility makes it a good one to keep handy in your kitchen! Made with the ice-hardened process so you know it will be sharp & stay sharp and remain durable for the life of the knife. The curved bolster is an added plus for a better rest for finger to control and grip.

love the size of this knife
This 4.5 petite cook knife is a small form of the rocking santoku knife. it is fun to use, light, but comfortable when holding. Sharp! yes very sharp. I use this for dicing scallions in rocking motion, and it also is a great fruit knife. I don't like to use paring knife for fruits, this one and the zwilling pro 5.5" santoku knife do all my fruits.

Great for smaller hands
I really like the petite chefs knife. My 11 year old son is into cooking and I feel much more comfortable with him using a good, but smaller knife. I also like smaller knives as I have small hands. It’s sharp, and seems to stay sharp. Very pleased with my purchase.

I love this knife for mincing...it has a slightly curved tip and a nice full blade that makes for perfect rocking motion. The curved bolster provides a comfortable pinch grip and the special steel does not corrode or rust. This knife stays super sharp.

ZWILLING Pro 4.5-inch Petite Cook's Knife
Has a wider blade, more similar to 7" & 6" Pro Chef's Knives. Very versatile & good for scooping items after cutting. I am happy having purchased this knife.

What is the width of this knife? What slot in the 16 slot block does this fit in? Thank you.
The ZWILLING Pro Petite Cook's knife is 1.55" across at its widest point, and will fit in any of the two slots below the slot for the sharpening steel, or the two top slots next to the slot for the sharpening steel.
