Professional chefs worldwide trust the tradition and quality of these impressive knives. .com Designed for the aspiring hobby chef, the Professional S series provides the excellence expected from Zwilling J.A. Henckels, the upscale partner of Henckels International. The 5-inch santoku knife starts with the traditional look of the three-rivet handle and adds a hollow-edged blade that's practically a necessity these days in Asian cooking. The hollows create air pockets that allow thin slices to fall away without sticking. Professional S blades are superbly constructed of premium high-carbon, no-stain steel that is Friodur ice-hardened for increased ability to hold an edge and take sharpening. The classically styled handles feature the strength of a full tang and triple rivets, while the enhanced bolster adds to the beautiful balance. Henckels recommends washing and drying all fine knives immediately after use. Made in Germany, the knife comes with a lifetime warranty. --Ann BieriFrom the Manufacturer The J.A.

It's super sharp, just the right size, and manuverable! We hand-wash it and love it for cutting veggies, and everything with it!! Highly recommended and worth the price! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Pro cook loves this knife! *by R***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2023* I’m a “from scratch” cook who cuts and chops everything by hand. From veggies to herbs to meats, it’s all in the prep. This knife and it’s close cousins do the job, not to heavy to handle but sharp and swift! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars This is my favorite prep knife!!! Used daily! *by A***2 on Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2024* I bought this same knife about 15 years ago and used it every single day because the blade is amazing and everything about the knife was perfect for my daily needs. But it also went through the dishwasher that whole time so after about 13 years the handle started to slowly fall apart crumbling a little more everyday. Once it had fallen off enough to no longer be comfortable to be used daily I went ahead and finally bought a new one. It is an expensive knife but totally worth it to me and lasts a very long time! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/3511491-zwilling-professional-s-5-inch-razor-sharp-german-hollow-edge](https://www.desertcart.it/products/3511491-zwilling-professional-s-5-inch-razor-sharp-german-hollow-edge) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
