Very Sharp
I have always been a huge fan of the Zwilling Cultery. The special formula steel is awesome. Really holds and edge and extremely durable.
Decided on a Japanese style knife, and ended up with the Four Star 2 Santoku, could not be happier. The Santoku is a bit lighter than the traditional 8" chef's knife which makes it easier to handle, and prevents hand fatigue. The angle too is smaller, which also makes the knife sharper than the traditional German knives. I love the hollow edge which helps prevent foods from sticking to the blade when cutting and chopping.
Very pleased with the performance of this knife, and will be looking to purchase the 5.5 inch size as well.

Very good for chopping vegetables.
This shorter size, is good for chopping smaller quantities of vegetables. Many folks find that the shorter length provides a little more control.
The Four Star II line was made to last. It has a comfortable, slip-resistant grip and features a steel end cap that optimizes the balance of the knife. The blade is forged from premium custom stainless steel boosted with proprietary knife manufacturing technology. The benefit? It makes the blades hold their edge longer and avoid damage.
Easily maintained. Hone regularly, sharpened only when needed. These knives will keep their edge. Dishwasher safe, but I recommend that they be hand washed; they will continue to look like new.

Best daily use knife
I received my first Zwilling 5 inch Santoku Knife a little over 20 years ago. And even with other-equally amazing knives in my drawer-this one is the first one I reach for every time.
I use this knife everytime I have chopping, slicing, dicing, or general cutting to do.
It fits my hand perfectly, is well-balanced, light, and just overall a darned good knife!
After 20 years, the bladesmith I take my knives to would no longer sharpen my old knife, as it had been sharpened down too far (20 years, after all!), so of course, all I decided to do was replace one amazing knife with another.
I look forward to another 20 years-plus of use out of my knew, Zwilling 5-inch Santoku Knife!!!

Food Doesn't Stick To This Knife!
This Four Star II 7" Santoku is a perfect length, its functionality, sharpness and durability, you'll have a perfectly made knife. This knife is slightly different from Four Star, this knife has logo-stamped end cap optimizes the balance provided by the bolster, resulting in safety, ergonomics and comfort. Comfortable and balanced size, will quickly become the go-to knife for everyday tasks. It's the most easiest to sharpen, it has a unique blade shape and ergonomic bolster. Whether chopping, slicing, or dicing, the broad blade are comfortable in the hand. This can cut vegetables, large fruits, and meat knife as well. Hollow edge creates barrier between the steel and the food, food instantly separates from the knife.

Razor Edge
Chopping with this santoku is simply a joy. It has this incredibly sharp (10 degrees, most other knives are 15 degrees) razor edge. You can chop through an onion without a single tear because you're not smashing it and releasing the gasses that make you cry. It's forged from high carbon German steel and made in Germany just like Pro, but the molded handle is much lighter than the three rivet design. It is going to stay sharp and last a lifetime and may become your favorite knife.

great for prep
I am a big fan of the Zwilling Four Star II line.. The handle material is super comfortable and gives me confidence in my grip. The steel cap on the end gives added weight which i like. The traditional blade design has never changed and is consistently sharp and stays sharp for a long time. The German quality and engineering really shine through here. The Santoku shape is great for all of my slicing and chopping needs. The acute angle gives me nice straight cuts.

A balanced knife!
This Four Star II Santoku is beautifully well-balanced knife, comfortable handle, and idealy sharp!!! It is excellent in cutting food such as meat, vegetables, poultry, herbs, and fruits. Excellent in mincing, dicing, slicing, and chopping. This knife is not just an Asian knife, it contours to every cooks hands, slightly weighted for its logo-stamped at the end cap optimizes the balance provided by the bolster, resulting in safety, ergonomics and comfort. Indention on the blade creates a barrier between the food and the steel, preventing food from sticking. It is perfect for a cook who rather likes chopping motion than rocking and gliding knife which this knife will do just fine too. It looks great, feels great, and a well-made knife. A fully forged construction blade that provides balance and durability German-made knife.

Great santoku knife
I’ve always liked the Four Star, but it was just a little too light. Since this is practically the same knife, but has added weight on the handle, it’s perfect! The forged stainless steel is super durable and the Santoku knife will last for a long time. A great alternative all purpose knife, the santoku is perfect for chopping veggies, meat and fruit and with the indentions on the blade, it really helps with releasing food off of the blade.

What is the width of the blade at the widest part? I am selecting a new knife block and will later add this knife to my collection.
This knife is 1.7" at its widest.
