Description
The all-rounder chef's knife is for chopping herbs, slicing meat, and dicing onions, and just about every other task in the kitchen. Made in Germany, this ZWILLING Pro Le Blanc knife features an elegant and durable white polymer handle with a triple-rivet design.
ZWILLING Pro Le Blanc 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
- Ergonomic white polymer, triple-rivet handle
- Dishwasher safe, hand wash recommended
- Made in Germany

Beautifully Made
Truth be known this is my first professional chopping knife. My husband has been telling me to buy one for years but I just never splurged on one. With Thanksgiving coming up, I thought I’d buy one in order to spatchcock the turkey. Tried it out today on boneless chicken breasts & WOW what a difference. I’ve been working too hard in the kitchen with my dull knives. The blade fits nicely in my hand & is well balanced. Very happy with this purchase. I just ordered a blade guard today too (didn’t think of it when I ordered the knife). Food prep just became more enjoyable.

The BEST knife that I own!
I recently bought my Zwilling Pro 8” chef’s knife and it’s by far the nicest knife in my collection. I am very picky with handles, I like a little weight to mine and the weight distribution is perfect. It’s not chunky and heavy but not light like a feather either. It’s a perfect balance. The 8” chef’s knife is my go-to knife and it has definitely elevated my cooking experience. I’m very impressed with the performance so far and can’t wait to add more to my collection!

Excellent knife!
When I was trying on the knife in the store I couldn't believe how smoothly it cuts through a carrot! It didn't fly off like it would compared to the one I have at home. It's a good investment for sure. My daughter and I can't wait to plan our meals and who's turn it is to do the cutting. I can't believe I would say this, but I should've listened to my husband into investing on a good knife long ago, this was actually his idea.

I am new to the knife world. My son introduced me over covid to the importance of having great knives in the kitchen. Then he went to law school and took his knives. I met him at Sur La Table and purchased the Zwilling Pro Le Blanc 8-inch Chef’s knife. It is the right weight for me and I am quickly learning how to use it. It has made cooking or prepping very easy and enjoyable. I love this knife!

LOVE THIS KNIFE!
I am 49 years old and always thought I had decent knives. I was so wrong. My 15 yr old son helps me cook and I had him try it. He stopped and said this is a bunch of bull-where have these been all my life?? I purchased a 4” paring knife, 5.5” prep/chef’s knife, & 8” chef’s knife to start my set. I will definitely continue to add to my collection. Customer service was easy to contact with questions, and the arrived promptly in the mail. LOVE THESE KNIVES!

I like the sloped grip. Feels great in the hand. Plus cuts smoothly.

One of the best I’ve used
I work as a prep cook and decided to buy my own knife instead of using the company provided knives and this is hands down the best feeling knife I’ve used. It works fantastically for both high-volume work and home cooking, both keeping it’s sharpness and keeping my hands from cramping, and is the best knife I’ve used to date.

What is the handle material and is it prone to staining after heavy use especially when working with ingredients such as beets or Tumeric?
Thank you for contacting ZWILLING!
The Zwilling Pro Le Blanc triple-rivet handles are made of polymer
Thank you
