Zwilling Pro 2-Piece Prep Knife Set

The Zwilling Pro 2-piece prep knife set comes with two 5.5-inch prep knives, one straight-edged and one serrated. The set is ideal for smaller kitchens where there is less room to prep, and the serrated knife pairs naturally with the straight edge: as one dulls, the other picks up the slack.

Together they handle peeling and chopping vegetables and fruit, slicing meats and cheeses, butterflying chicken breasts and deveining shrimp. The blades leave plenty of knuckle clearance on the board yet are small enough for in-hand tasks such as peeling apples and potatoes.

Because both knives are the same size and shape, switching between them takes no adjustment: pick up the serrated knife for a tomato, then the straight edge for the basil that goes with it.

The serrated knife is also sold alone as the Pro 5.5-inch serrated prep knife; for a narrower straight blade, see the Pro 5.25-inch prep knife.

Choosing a Zwilling Line

All three lines are forged in Germany from the same special formula steel and ice-hardened by Zwilling’s FRIODUR process.

Line	Bolster and edge	Handle	Who it suits
Zwilling Pro	Curved half bolster; sharpenable from heel to tip	Triple-riveted black polymer	Cooks who use a pinch grip and want the full edge available for cutting and sharpening
Zwilling Four Star	Pronounced bolster that guards the fingers	Molded polypropylene with no rivets or gaps	Kitchens that value a hygienic, gap-free handle and a traditional finger guard
Zwilling Spectrum	Curved bolster; 12.5-degree edge per side	Jute Micarta with a steel end cap	Cooks who want the most acute factory edge of the three lines

Keeping the Edge

German stainless at this hardness responds well to honing. A few light strokes on a honing steel before each use keep the edge aligned; sharpen on whetstones or a guided sharpener when honing no longer restores it.

Care

Zwilling rates the knife dishwasher safe but recommends hand washing; wash with warm, soapy water and dry at once.
Cut on wood or soft composite boards rather than glass, stone or ceramic.
Store in a block, on a magnetic strip or in an edge guard, not loose in a drawer.
