A joy to use

This knife makes meal prep a true joy! I am zipping through my tasks almost effortlessly. In the past I had a different style of Zwilling knives for years that I enjoyed for 20+ years. Slowly they were discarded and replaced with less costly versions. This knife reminds me of why I chose this brand in the first place. You get what you pay for. Truly superior performance! I will be purchasing the entire set !

Stellar Knife Great Quality

This knife has such a great weight and feel, when holding it I feel like the Chef I never knew I could be. COVID has let me cook a lot more at home for my wife and I, and her birthday gift to me was this beauty. 10/10 would recommend, get cooking everyone!

My new favorite!

With pretty severe carpal tunnel syndrome cutting has become difficult for me. I love to cook and my new chefs knife has made easy work of everything I have done since Christmas. Cutting onions and hard potatoes a breeze tough to cut tomatoes no problem. I am literally in love

Sharp and fancy

Love it. Came recommended to me from a chef friend who tells me it's a very good knife for its price point. So far, so good. Chopping vegetables has never been such a breeze.

Excellent blade, interesting profile

First off, the quality of the steel and the ergonomics of this knife is superb. I was maybe a little leery of the blade retention having experience with Japanese knives but it has been proving to be stellar. Many months in and I've yet found a need to sharpen, as light work on a knife steel seems to be all that is needed. Many people are most likely attracted to the pro line for the ergonomics and they don't disappoint. This is easily my most comfortable knife, and perfectly compliments a pinch grip. A bit on the blade profile - if you are accustomed to a traditional western style blade, or even many of the newer Japanese hybrid blades, this has a different curvature that takes a little getting used to. The curve from the point to belly is more dramatic, and the belly of the blade itself is completely flat. Rock chopping with a classic chefs knife to this will feel like you're hitting a sudden stop at the bottom of the stroke. This isn't a bad thing, but different. However I've found it is particularly well suited to tap chopping. Overall this is a fantastic knife, the quality is top notch with great steel. If you are extremely used to a traditional chef's knife blade shape maybe look for the version of this knife with that blade profile (there is one). Used multiple times daily for 4 months.

Really impressed with...

Really impressed with this knife. It slices meat and carrots effortlessly. Love the hold - comfortable and great control. No more pain in my wrist! It's a bit pricey but then it comes with a lifetime warranty so hoping this is a keeper for a "lifetime."

When will my item arrive?

Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.

  • Most freight products ship on a pallet
  • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
  • We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
