Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Four Star 8-Inch High Carbon Stainless Steel Bread knife

Great little bread knife.Shorter than most bread knives.Sharper than a whole lot more.

This knife feels sturdy, and fits the hand well. It is VERY sharp, and great for cutting bread with hard crusts.

Fabulous tool, non-slip handle, easy to use. We've done without this matching tool for years and been making do with another brand reducing the counter-top esthetic as well as the quality of this surprisingly light-weight knife. This matched the remaining knives we had so we now have a full set. And, a big deal was that the block we already had includes a slot for a cook's scissors (and the scissors) and it seems as though most of the blocks out there now don't do this which seems a shame as that's the tool used as frequently as any (not only for the food but also for those pesky plastic packages always needing to be ripped open).

Good size and weight. Cut bread without smooshing it.

Exactly matches our set. Tried sharpening our bread knife and ruined it. This replacement matches our set perfectly.

New as advertized. Great price/value for a quality Henckel bread knife.

It's a very sharp bread knife. Highly recommend.

I first bought a Henckels Twin Four Star bread knife as part of a larger set in 2001. Still have the set, but the bread knife, which gets daily use, had gotten dull. I took it to a professional sharpening service, but while what they did made it sharper, it also made the knife harder to control. So time to buy a new one.The good part - it's still available! The new knife cuts very easily and smoothly, like my memory of the old one. There have been some changes, though. The blade itself is maybe a half inch shorter and is also a bit narrower than the old one, It weighs slightly less (5 grams) than the old knife (in its re-sharpened state that took off some of the blade edge.) But I still like it. The knife is still made in Germany, unlike so much of the competition that has moved manufacturing to China.
