Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Select Mincing Knife Feature

  • Sharp, half-moon-shaped double blades for mincing garlic or herbs
  • 18/10 stainless-steel blades and handle
  • Curved, ergonomically designed handle
  • Friodur ice-hardened blades for strength
  • Dishwasher-safe; lifetime warranty
Using its two half-moon-shaped blades and a little human power, this knife rocks back and forth to mince foods such as garlic, herbs, or nuts on a cutting board. Crafted from 18/10 stainless steel, this mincing knife has a curved ergonomic handle for comfort while cutting and a sleek, modern-looking design. As with all Twin Select knives, the stainless-steel blades go through a Friodur ice-hardening process, which strengthens the blades and protects them from discoloration. This knife is dishwasher-safe and covered by a lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

From the Manufacturer

The Twin Select range is a master blend of function and design. These forged knives feature ergonomic 18/10 stainless-steel handles combined with blades made from J.A. Henckels’s exclusive high-carbon, no-stain steel formula. The result is a beautiful, award-winning knife that exudes elegance and is a pleasure to use. The Twin Select line contains knives for all tasks, including the following open stock knife types: parer, bread, sandwich, carving, chef’s, santoku, and others. Twin Select knives are also available in a range of block sets and gift sets, to be sure that your cutlery needs are covered.

A Higher Standard in Knife Construction

Twin Select 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, these 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 Select knives use J.A. Henckels’s Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.

New Ergonomic Handle Technology

The Twin Select series features comfortable, ergonomic stainless-steel handles that accommodate each hand size while improving function, convenience, and safety. These patented handles are hygienic, colorfast, and break-proof (USA Patent #5791055). The quality of Twin Select can be recognized by the Zwilling J.A. Henckels logo featured on the end of the handle.
