FAQs

Can I put these knives in the dishwasher?

While they are dishwasher safe, hand-washing is highly recommended to protect the sharpness and prevent the handle material from degrading over time.

What is the blade angle on these knives?

The ZWILLING Gourmet series features a V-Edge process with a 15-degree angle on each side.

Are these knives full-tang?

These knives feature a reliable construction designed for durability and balance, typical of the Gourmet series' ergonomic focus.

How should I store these knives?

Always store the knives in the included wooden block to protect the sharp edges and ensure kitchen safety.

What kind of cutting board should I use?

We recommend using wooden or plastic cutting boards to maintain the sharpness of your blades and prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

Blade feels dull or struggles to cut

Use a sharpening steel regularly to realign the edge or consider professional sharpening if the blade has become significantly blunt.

Water spots on the blade

Wipe the blade immediately after washing with a clean, dry cloth to prevent mineral deposits from drying on the steel.

Knife handle feels loose

Check the rivets for debris; if the issue persists, ensure the knife is not being subjected to extreme temperature fluctuations in a dishwasher.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your ZWILLING Gourmet set is simple; place the wooden block on a clear, stable section of your countertop away from heat sources. To ensure the longevity of your investment, always use a wood or plastic cutting board, avoiding glass or stone surfaces which can dull the blades prematurely. While the blades are technically dishwasher safe, we highly recommend washing them by hand with warm water and a mild detergent immediately after use. Dry each knife thoroughly with a soft cloth before sliding it back into the storage block. Avoid storing knives in a cluttered drawer, as this can lead to edge damage and safety hazards.
