Know before you buy
Yes, the Twin Signature series is manufactured in ZWILLING’s company-owned factory in Germany, ensuring the quality and craftsmanship associated with their long-standing heritage.
While these knives are technically dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing them to preserve the sharpness of the blades and the integrity of the handles over time.
The FRIODUR ice-hardening process improves the molecular structure of the steel, resulting in blades that are exceptionally resilient, corrosion-resistant, and capable of holding a sharp edge for much longer.
Yes, the set includes a 10-slot birchwood block, meaning you have three extra slots available if you decide to add individual knives to your collection later.
This set includes a sharpening steel, which is designed to realign the blade edge between uses. For long-term maintenance, you can use the steel regularly and have the knives professionally sharpened when necessary.
The plastic handles on the Twin Signature series are lightweight, ergonomic, and highly durable. Unlike wood, they are non-porous and will not crack or require oiling, making them a practical choice for frequent, heavy-duty kitchen use.
