A chef knife and a parer will take care of almost all of your kitchen cutting tasks. The 8" chef knife is a workhorse and the curved blade and bolster will make you cut like a pro. I hold the knife correctly and rock it in a perfect cutting motion. I use the parer for peeling apples or potatoes, plus great for removing blemishes. The Pro knives are the very best! They are forged from high carbon steel which means they are sharp and are going to stay sharp. The three rivet handle is perfectly weighted and balanced and is guaranteed to last a lifetime. They are perfect for professional chefs or the home chef who simply loves to cook.

Perfect upgrade to my current knives. The the shape of the chefs knife makes it very easy to slice with the steeper than average curve on the front. The elongated flat area is great for thin accurate chopping. The pairing knife is perfectly shaped for my hand. They both feature the curved bolster of the Pro line making holding the knives properly comfortable and gives better results. The forged German steel and construction give a great blade that is very sharp, stays sharp for a long time and is easy to maintain.

This set of knives is one of Zwilling's best. It is comprised of the Pro line chef and paring knives that feature the most innovative design thinking, and latest manufacturing technology in the industry. They each have a fully integrated angled bolster that is easy to pinch grip, keeping the thumb and forefinger in the correct position for maximum control. The full tang of the blade is riveted in three places to the contoured composite handle for for comfort and security. This a professional chef worthy.

Both knives are great knife. Chef knife for large cutting needs, and paring knife for cutting small fruits and peeling. A pinch grip is one of the greatest feature of every Pro knife, a unique curved bolster supports the professional pinch grip, with thumb and index finger on the blade, for safe cutting and less fatigue. A single piece of Special Formula High-Carbon NO STAIN stainless steel, full tang and handle are triple-riveted for superb stability Dishwasher safe, hand wash recommended.

I went into a store to try out all the knives they had so that I could find the one that was most comfortable for me and I found that these knife handles were the most comfortable for me to use. I also liked the weight on them. Since they are a bit more expensive than others on the market, I decided to just get this starter set and add onto them as I have more money because I would rather have high quality knives that will last a long time than get a whole set that I will have to replace.

Amazing knives. I will be sticking with the Pro Series from now on (originally purchased a set that included Twin and the level below). The only improvement would be if the set were to come with protective sheaths, as the larger one does not fit in the wood block from the aforementioned set. Guess I will just have to buy a better block to go with the new Pro Set I am beginning to build.

I already have the Pro knives and would never part with them. I purchased these as a wedding gift. Two good knives for the happy couple to get started with. The chef is the knife I use the most. I hold my knife up on the blade and the curved bolster makes that grip feel so natural. The paring is also very handy for smaller jobs. Purchasing these as a set saves a lot of money.

This set include the top two knives you need in a kitchen. Pro knives are made from German Special Formula Steel and forged from one piece of steel so durable for a lifetime. The bolster is curved and perfect to hold with pinch grip. The knives are also ice hardened which translates to the blade starting sharp and staying sharper longer. They are razor sharp.

I really like the shape of this chefs knife. The body is broad and built to last!! This is a duo you'll use time and time again. Super durable and sharp. The innovation is with the bolster. The rise in the half bolster allows for the perfect professional grip. The handle is traditional with the three rivet design and also very comfortable in your hand.

I bought this set for my daughter when she moved into her first college apartment and they survived! I am sure that they were not handled with care but she still uses them everyday (5 years later) and they look great. Made from premium German steel and ice-hardened these are super durable even through the worse abuse!
