Zwilling Pro 6 in. Utility Knife

The Everyday Essential: The Zwilling Pro 6" Utility Knife For everyday kitchen tasks that call for more precision than a chef’s knife and more reach than a paring knife, the Zwilling Pro 6-inch Utility Knife is the perfect solution. Its versatile straight-edged blade is designed for slicing, trimming, portioning, and other detailed prep work, making it an indispensable addition to any kitchen knife collection.

Built with Zwilling’s renowned craftsmanship and performance-focused design, this utility knife offers the balance, comfort, and reliability you need for everyday food preparation.

This exceptional performance is powered by Zwilling's core technologies. The blade is precision-forged from a single piece of high-carbon German steel, then ice-hardened with the signature FRIODUR process. This ensures the serrated tips stay razor-sharp for an incredibly long time.

Prep Knife: This is the ultimate "daily driver." Use it for: Precision Prep: Dicing shallots, mincing garlic, and slicing ginger where control is paramount. Protein Trimming: The 6.5-inch length is ideal for cleaning silver skin from tenderloins or breaking down chicken with speed.

Zwilling Pro 7 in Sous Chef Knife

Sous Chef translates to “under chef” and this person is the right hand of the executive chef. While the executive creates the menu, their responsibilities tend to be more managerial, while the sous is hands-on with every position in the kitchen. For this reason, a small multi-purpose knife “line-cook knife” is needed. It may be required for anything from fluting mushroom, to supreming an orange or slicing a chicken cordon bleu without dislodging the breading. We recommend this as a line-cook knife as well as for home use.
3-in-1 Hybrid-Style Knife: Combines a prep, utility and chef’s for all kitchen tasks
Curved Bolster: Supports professional pinch grip
Knuckle Clearance: Low profile blade with adequate distance for your hand Made in Germany, with lifetime warranty Learn More

Kyocera Innovation 5" Tomato Knife - White Blade (TK-125 WH-BK)

A serrated ceramic knife designed for clean, controlled slicing of tomatoes, citrus, and other delicate-skinned produce. The Kyocera Innovation White 5" Tomato Knife is built for ingredients with soft interiors and thin, resilient skins.
