Zwilling Pro 5.5" Serrated Prep Knife
Add a utility knife to your arsenal of kitchen tools. You won’t regret it.
We love our chef’s knives and paring knives, but we’ve grown to appreciate the usefulness of having a quality utility knife on hand. These knives come in straight-bladed and serrated styles. They’re a great all-purpose knife and their compact size (between 5 and 6 inches) makes them perfect for cutting smaller foods and performing precise, detailed cuts.
Zwilling Pro 5.5" Serrated Prep Knife
WINNER - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Our favorite knife sliced every food with ease, thanks to a stiff, ultrasharp blade featuring 5 inches of scalloped and pointed serrations, which provided just enough bite to slice into food securely and give it a leg up over the second-place finisher. A narrow tip allowed us to do detail work, and a tall heel ensured that our knuckles never dragged against the cutting board when we cut. Just one teensy gripe: The handle could be a touch longer and wider—testers with larger hands said their hands cramped occasionally.
We maintain strict objectivity in all testing.*

How We Tested Serrated Utility Knives
We were intrigued by the prospect of a more compact serrated knife that could be used for these smaller tasks. We bought eight serrated utility knives, priced from about $7.50 to about $110.00, and used them to slice tomatoes, baguettes, kaiser rolls, and salami and to quarter avocados and loaded BLT sandwiches.
