The 19-piece block set features all the knives you need to set your kitchen upright. From the small birds beak peeling knife for precise, intricate cuts to the all-rounder 8-inch chefs knife for slicing and dicing, this set contains the key knives for all tasks, along with a sharp and sturdy set of 8 steak knives, kitchen shears, and a sharpening steel to keep your fine edge knives in tip-top shape. The set comes housed in a handsome wood knife block. Twin Signature knives are precision stamped from a single piece of proprietary special formula German steel, resulting in lighter-weight knives that do not compromise sharpness. Combined with the Zwilling signature ice-hardening technique, these blades are harder and sharper, they will not stain or chip, and they retain their sharpness longer. To ensure an ideal cutting angle, the sharp laser-controlled edge is honed and hand-finished by the most skilled artisans. The three-rivet handle embedded with the Zwilling logo provides optimum durability.
