High-end Professional Utility Knife.  
  


The Twin Cermax line represents the epitome of the craftsmanship of Zwilling J.A.Henckels.  

To put it more simple, these knives are the best they make.  

The metal used for the blades consist of a new type of powdered steel called Cermax, with a Rockwell hardness of 66 (!)  

This is extremely hard for any knifesteel, and especially for a kitchenknife which is usually somewhere inbetween 54- 60 Rockwell.  

This superhard steel is 'sandwiched' between 2 layers of softer, but much tougher steel to create what we think to be the perfect kitchenknife.  

To top things off the handle is inlayed with polished black Micarta with a beautiful grain.  
  

When you order one of these knives, or more, be especially careful because these are by far the sharpest knives right out-of-the-box we have ever seen.  

They are able to cut freestanding hair on your arm with ease.  
  

**Maintenance tips:**


* Do not ever try to clean these fine knives, or any other fine knife, in a dishwasher, as it will ruin their appearance and make them blunt as well.

* For sharpening we recommend the Spyderco Sharpmaker, elsewhere on our site.



It will help you maintain the supersharpness of these knives with ease, as with every Sharpmaker you get a DVD with clear instructions how to do it.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Measured from the tip of the blade to the back of the handle

Total length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.
