OriginGermany
Manufactured:Germany

ZWILLING J.A. Henckels is one of the world's oldest and most prestigious brands, renowned for its high-quality kitchen knives and cookware. Founded in 1731 by Peter Henckels in Solingen, Germany—known as the 'City of Blades'—the brand has become a global benchmark for precision engineering and culinary performance.

While its premium forged knives are still primarily manufactured in Solingen to maintain the 'Made in Germany' heritage, the company has expanded its manufacturing footprint globally. This includes specialty production of Miyabi knives in Japan, stainless steel cookware in Belgium, and various kitchen tools in China and Spain. Since 1970, Zwilling has been part of the Wilh. Werhahn KG group, allowing it to maintain its status as a premium independent brand while benefiting from an international industrial network.
