A high-performance forged slicing knife
The Zwilling Professional "S" 16cm slicing knife is designed for cooks looking for precision, speed and everyday strength. Made in Germany to the highest standards, it is forged from a single piece of steel using the SIGMAFORGE® process, guaranteeing perfect strength and balance.
This knife is ideal for precise, long cuts: slicing roasts, ham, poultry, fish or large cold cuts. The blade's elongated profile combined with its slim design ensures clean gliding without tearing food.
A sturdy, sharp 16cm blade
Made from Zwilling's specially formulated stainless steel, the knife blade resists staining and warping. Its ultra-fine cutting edge, combined with the geometry of the emouture, offers a very fluid and controlled cutting action.
The blade was then subjected to FRIODUR® cryogenic treatment, optimizing edge durability and corrosion resistance. With a hardness of 57 HRC, it combines strength and flexibility for smooth, bend-free slicing.
The laser-cut V-edge finish ensures an optimal cutting angle (≈30°), for lasting sharpness and effortless cutting, even on cold meats or large pieces.
An ergonomic handle for intensive use
The 12.5cm handle is made of rigid synthetic material, with a Western shape with curved heel, for a stable and secure grip. The three stainless-steel rivets ensure that the inserts are firmly attached to the tang and balanced with the blade.
The stainless steel bolster fuses with the solid tang to offer stability and finger protection during use. The symmetrical handle is suitable for both right- and left-handed users, ensuring a secure grip at all times.

Proper use and care of my Zwilling knife
To preserve its performance, always wash your slicing knife by hand with a soft sponge and a non-abrasive product, and dry it immediately. Use a wooden or bamboo board to avoid dulling the cutting edge. Regular sharpening with a suitably grained stone will prolong its effectiveness. Store carefully, ideally on a magnetic bar or in a suitable block.
