From the Manufacturer
J.A. Henckels is proud to celebrate its 275th anniversary with
its newest line--Twin Four Star II. This new line
represents the rebirth of a legend, the classic Four Star series,
which was first introduced in 1976. Twin Four Star II knives have
an improved weight and balance, as well as a host of other
features, making them ideal for both home and professional chefs.
The Four Star II line contains knives for all tasks, including
the following open stock types: parer, bread, boning ,

santoku, and others. Twin Four Star II knives are also available
in a range of block sets and gift sets, to be sure that your
cutlery needs are covered.
A New Standard in Construction
Twin Four Star II 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 Four Star II
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 Four Star II knives use J.A.
Henckels's Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a
process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.
An Enhanced Handle for Easier Use
Twin Four Star II knives have an enhanced handle design that
features a stainless-steel end cap with the famous Zwilling J.A.
Henckels logo. These high-impact polypropylene handles are
permanently bonded to the blades without any gaps. The new
series also features improved weight and balance for improved
cutting performance.
