Product Description
J A Henckels Profession S Series 8" Chefs Knife 31021-203 - Henckels Professional 'S' knives feature the finest Henckels' blades, along with a two-piece handle held in place with three stainless steel rivets, for a sturdy, traditional look and feel. These knives are made in Solingen, Germany, and are forged, not stamped. Blade density is improved using the Henckels' FRIODUR ice-hardening process, which provides a sharper initial edge for easier maintenance over time. Larger knives are crafted using Henckels' exclusive Sinternal Component Technology, which fuses blade, bolster and tang into a single, seamless piece for precision, easy handling, and balance. Part of the Professional 'S' series, this knife is made of high-carbon stainless steel and precision-honed, with a laser-controlled edge, a balanced super-bolster, and a full tang that extends all the way through the handle. Made in Germany, Lifetime Warranty.

Amazon.com Review
This is a classic French chef's knife, with a broad blade and a curved cutting edge for rocking through a chopping task. The 8-inch blade suits most cooks, though those with small hands might prefer a 6-inch knife, and those with bigger hands might choose a 10-inch one. Classic three-rivet handles distinguish Pro S from Henckels's other quality lines, TwinStar, Five Star, and Four Star. Pro S handles are heavier and its knives less weight-forward. The steel used in the Pro S line is identical to that of the Five and Four Star lines. High-tech welding of knives this size and larger combines three steel types into what appears to be a single piece, so a knife's parts have distinct characteristics: a hard edge; a strong, stain-resistant bolster; and a stain- and corrosion-resistant tang. Traditionalists insist on single-piece forging for strength, but Henckels says the invisible welds are actually stronger than the steel. While this chef's knife is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack

From the Manufacturer

The J.A. Henckels Twin Professional S (or Pro S) knife series features trustworthy quality and classic three-rivet styling--it's a line of knives admired by both professional chefs and home cooks of all skill levels. The Twin Pro S line contains knives for all tasks, including the following open stock knife types: parer, bread, peeling, sandwich, utility, carving, steak, chef's, Granton edge slicer, santoku, and others. Twin Pro S knives are also available in a range of block sets and gift sets, to be sure that your cutlery needs are covered.

A Reliable Standard in Knife Construction

Twin Pro S knives are precision forged from a single piece of exclusive-formula, high-carbon, no-stain steel under the all-new Sigmaforge standard. As a result, Twin Pro S knives have improved quality consistency, lasting sharpness, and perfect geometry. Sigmaforge one-piece construction also provides high precision and improved stability of the blade and steel structure, thus improving cutting-edge retention for lasting sharpness. In addition, Twin Pro S knives use J.A. Henckels' Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.

An Ergonomic Handle for Easier Use

J.A. Henckels's Twin Pro S knives boast a comfortable, ergonomic three-rivet handle design that won't wear against the hand and helps to provide control when doing any cutting task. These durable Novodur handles are perfectly bonded to the full tang on each knife for stability and durability. The impeccably balanced super bolster provides weight and adds balance for safer and more professional cutting.

Features

  • Sigmaforge one-piece precision-forged construction: Provides perfect geometry, high precision, and improved stability of the blade and steel structure, thus improving cutting-edge retention for lasting sharpness.
  • Laser-controlled edge: Is sharper and stays sharper longer. Has a more consistent blade angle.
  • Friodur ice hardening: Maximum no-stain properties and more blade strength. Improved resistance to corrosion and pitting.
  • Super bolster: Provides weight, insures safety, and adds balance.
  • Full visible tang construction: Provides proper balance and greater strength.
  • High-carbon no-stain steel, an exclusive J.A. Henckels formula: Nonstaining, nonrusting.
  • Precision honed: Is sharper and stays sharper longer.
  • Triple-riveted Novodur handles: Durable, strong, and smooth, these comfortable handles are perfectly balanced.
  • Dishwasher-safe: Easy care (though hand washing is recommended by J.A. Henckels).
  • Full warranty: J.A. Henckels stands behind all its knives.

5 out of 5 stars Another great Henckel product.   July 18, 2008
My husband insisted on upgrading our knives and this is a very welcome addition to our kitchen. It has the capability of being able to be sharpened when it becomes necessary.


5 out of 5 stars Best gift ever   April 8, 2008
I got this knife as a wedding gift 7 years ago in a set and have been using it every day...at least twice a day and it is just the best! Only after 6 years did I need to use a stone to sharpen them. I really only needed the sharpening steel. I love to cook and this knife makes prep easier and faster. It is well balanced and solid to hold without being too heavy. The only thing i noticed about the blade is that when i slice turmeric it sometimes stains the blade...but it comes out after 3 days or so of using and washing (hand wash only). I highly recommend this knife.


5 out of 5 stars Simply perfect   February 6, 2008
This knife is beautiful, and cuts/chops/slices perfectly. As I see another reviewer write, "it is all the knife you'll ever need."

When holding it, the weight and balance of the knife is very agreeable. And when in use it satisfyingly tackles any culinary task.

I bought this knife for my boyfriend who cooks alot. He loves it! Only thing is that it could be sharper. Overall, great knife and I think worth the price!


5 out of 5 stars THE BEST KNIFE YOU'LL EVER OWN   May 26, 2006
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I was a professional chef for over 15 years and have owned this particular knife for 26 years. I still use it daily at home and for work. The weight and balance are just right. It is extremely versatile and can handle any job from fine chopping to thin slicing as well as preping fish and meats. I have only had to have it sharpened 6 times as I like to keep an extra fine edge or I had nicked it. Otherwise if you take proper care of this knife eg: never put it anywhere but on the cutting board or back in its sheath, you will only need to use the sharpening steel to keep a sharp edge.
