You can't find a nicer knife than one from the Twin 1731 series. This collection of knives is made from Cronidur 30 steel which is an exceptionally hard and corrosion resistant steel. This knife will retain its 12 degree angle use after use providing you with the ultimate cutting experience every time you use it. The forged bolster had the innovative curve for the most comfortable pinch grip making this knife like and extension of your arm. The oiled ebony handle is smooth and slip resistant. A carving knife is long and thin shaped perfectly to give you thin slices of roast.

Beautiful carver
The Twin 1731 collection is one of the most beautiful and best that Zwilling has ever made. They took the look of the Zwilling Pro knives with the curved bolster, but they used a different steel with the Cronidor 30 (a steel used on space shuttles) that is harder and sharper and then accented the blade with an ebony wood handle that is seamless and rivetless, making this a statement knife. A very sharp carving knife, this is the German knife you want in your kitchen for slicing meat, fish, and produce with ease.

Ultimate Carving Knife
Such an incredible knife! Perfect weight and balance, and a very comfortable pinch grip on the bolster. The solid ebony wood handle is dark, beautiful and has a amazing feel. But what makes it the ultimate carving knife is the Cronidur steel. It's the same steel they used on space shuttle bearings; 100x more durable than any other steel. It is razor sharp and can slice through turkey with incredible ease. A limited number were made as an anniversary special making it even more special.

These are hands down the best German knives on the market. An heirloom collection that will last your life time and those after you. The Ebony wood handles are slim and feel smooth and secure in the hand and the curved bolster is made to make the pinch grip comfortable and puts less stress on the wrist.
With a 12.5 degree angle these knives cut like a Japanese style knife and the Cronidur 30 steel keeps the edge sharp through the toughest projects.

Well crafted and engineered, this is an excellent knife for carving roasts as well as large vegetables. Super sharp, durable and well balanced. I use this instead of thy chefs knife when I want finer slices. This knife will glide through watermelon and other tough skinned fruits. I use it for pumpkin, beets and eggplant. The innovative curved bolster is comfortable! Grip like a Pro!! Handle is contoured and very comfortable to hold.

I bought this for my daughter and son-in-law to cut the cake at their wedding. I wanted something very speical that they would have for years to come. It is such a beautiful knife, the handle is African Ebony and exquisite, the blade is made of a super steel and ice-hardened to produce a very sharp knife that will retain it sharpness. They love the knife and have it hanging in their kitchen now on Zwilling walnut magnetic bar

Such beauty! With its curved bolster and ebony handle, there aren't many knives that match the superb quality and function of this very special series of knives. The carving can be used for so many tasks, not only carving meat. This extends into watermelons, cantaloupe, acorn squash and any foods with hard outer crusts or rinds. If you have any special gourmet cooks or chefs in your life, this is the perfect gift for them!

There are no words to describe how beautiful this knife is. My husband bought it for me for our 20th wedding anniversary. The steel, Cronidur 30, used in this knife was actually developed for bearings in aerospace engineering so you can imagine how durable the blade is. The bolster is curved encouraging a correct pinch grip and the handle is made from African Ebony Wood. Simply elegant.
