Product Description
Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Cuisine 2-Piece Deluxe Asian Set: Kitchen & Dining. Henckels's deluxe two-piece Twin Cuisine Asian set is perfect for all your slicing and chopping needs. One of the newest premium lines from Zwilling J.A. Henckels, Twin Cuisine was introduced in 2004 with a major revelation: it's the first high-quality forged cutlery line to feature a molded handle with a visible, full-length tang that runs horizontally. In fact, the handle is absolutely stunning, with the shiny tang curving slightly as it courses through the black nonslip polypropylene. With no rivets or gaps, the ergonomic handle provides seamless comfort, while the full tang adds weight for precision balance. The single-piece blade, forged from high-carbon, no-stain steel and strengthened in Henckels's exclusive Friodur ice-hardening process, retains its sharp edge through extensive cutting and chopping. Made in Germany and covered by a lifetime warranty, Twin Cuisine knives are dishwasher-safe but are best cared for when washed and dried by hand. This two-knife deluxe set consists of a 7-inch, hollow-edge Asian-style chef's knife called a santoku, and a 3-inch kudamono hollow-edge paring knife. The santoku, once unusual, is now a standard kitchen knife in many American homes because of the popularity of sushi and other Asian delicacies. The kudamono parer is a smaller version of the santoku, excellent for fruit and vegetable peeling, slicing, and garnishing. Both feature hollowed-out ovals along the razor-sharp edge to reduce friction during cutting, resulting in paper-thin slices of fish, meat, or vegetables. Together, the knives make a superb set for the chef who especially enjoys preparing Asian cuisine. --Ann Bieri From the Manufacturer Twin Cuisine is the first quality forged knife to combine the comfort of a truly ergonomic, molded handle with the precision weight and balance of a full horizontal tang. Plus, Twin Cuisine’s exclusive, award-winning patented handle design is a new standard in fine cutlery (U.S. design patent #D524,121). The series is available in a variety of styles for a variety of cutting tasks. Twin Cuisine is also available in a variety of block sets and gift sets. The Twin Cuisine series truly is a masterful blend of form and function. A Higher Standard in Knife Construction Twin Cuisine knives are traditionally forged from a single piece of J.A. Henckels’s exclusive h-gh carbon, no-stain steel formula. The result is a knife with high durability, professional strength, and weight. Twin Cuisine also uses J.A. Henckels’s Friodur ice-hardening process, which results in a blade that has excellent cutting-edge retention and corrosion resistance. The blade edge is precision honed and laser controlled to maintain a sharper and consistent blade angle. New Ergonomic Handle Technology The Twin Cuisine handle features exclusive new and innovative handle technology: a full horizontal tang without rivets. High-impact polypropylene is bonded with J.A. Henckels’s high carbon, no-stain steel, resulting in a remarkably comfortable handle with a smooth shape and no gaps. The world-famous Zwilling J.A. Henckels logo is etched on the end of every Twin Cuisine knife handle, indicating its quality.
