Looks exactly like the amazon basics knife on the same page, for under $14.

Made in China, nothing special. Might be worth $20 if you don't want to spend for a top quality knife.

Yeah, these are the cheap Chinese version (it's even etched on the knives, in the pictures). While they may not be the actual amazing Henckel knives us chefs have come to love..... these are still a great starter knife.

You can get a real Zwilling Twin Master, made in Germany, knife for $40 on Henkels's website with a commercial black handle. Zwilling Gourmet (Riveted like these) go on sale for this price too from time to time. Otherwise, for a starter knife, I really like Tramontina's and you can get a 3 knife set, made in Brazil, for $15 from Walmart if you don't mind white commercial style handles.
Edit: I've been informed that Twin Masters are made in Spain.

Can someone explain why where it's made matters? I'm genuinely curious because would it make a big difference to the home cook that regularly sharpens their most used knife? Or is it a preference thing?

where it's made generally represents quality of steel, and China is considered poor quality steel. also this is a stamped knife, cut from a large sheet of steel vs forged which is, well, forged from a rod/bar. I own both types (actually this brand/product line tho not sure if same model) and forged is soooo much more enjoyable to use. I would wait/save for a deal on forged.

What do you mean by "regularly sharpens?" Better quality (generally harder) steel holds edges longer and sharpen better. Less likely to have defects which can lead to breaking or discoloring.
I actually prefer stamped knives to forged knives.

I'll echo the above and emphasize that if you're buying a chef's knife, which is your primary one for cooking, invest in a good one if can (forged, name brand). My first one was a Henckels made in Germany, and I still have it 30+ years later. I actually passed it down to my daughter.

But where do you think most of the Henckels (or any name brand) steel comes from? Like most, it probably all comes from China. You may say the manufacturer has a certain spec, but do they really check the carbon content in what they've ordered?

Thanks, that makes a lot more sense with the stamped vs forged.

Their cheaper steel, like their stamped knives, may come from China (they say otherwise, actually), but their forged steel comes from Europe. They source their steel from a Finnish company, though they say it's German steel. You know there are foundries outside of China, right? And, not all Chinese steel is poor -- a buddy of mine who works in the metal industry has said that plenty of Chinese metal is top quality, better than a lot produced in the U.S.. He's the technical expert for the company, so he's not talking out his @ss.

And, yes, I think they do verify that material content of the steel they use, since they put their name on it and guarantee its quality, and they care about their brand reputation. Solingen, Germany, has a long and proud steel tradition. Could there be bad steel in some of them? Sure, but the U.S. Defense Dept is fooled, too -- https://www.navytimes.com/news/yo...navy-subs/
