Wüsthof Gourmet series
Agile and versatile. Gourmet knife blades are laser-cut from stainless X50CrMoV15 steel sheet and then processed in 35 manufacturing stages. The edge is ground to a 28° edge angle, and the final hand finishing by specialists gives exceptional sharpness and fast, easy cutting. Thanks to their very high hardness of 56 HRC, they are comparable in quality and sharpness to forged knives. Their low weight and unique ergonomics make them very comfortable to hold, well balanced and strong, making cutting easier on both hand and wrist. The special black plastic handle is secured with three rivets. Dishwasher safe and therefore highly hygienic. The Gourmet series offers excellent value for money and, with more than 40 different products, is just as useful for home households as a starter set or the basic equipment of a professional kitchen.
The Wüsthof Gourmet series holds NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) public health and food safety certification.
• Hand guard – The ergonomic knife handle fits well in the hand, and the curved end of the handle prevents slipping. The sturdy handle panels are secured with stainless steel rivets.
• Tomato knife – The finely serrated edge cuts smoothly through firm tomato skins, while the split tip lifts the slices. The knife can also be used well for cheese and fruit.
• Decorating knife – The special blade is ideal for creative cooks for decoratively cutting raw and cooked fruit and vegetables or finely portioning butter.
• Full tang – The blade runs through the handle, providing reliable stability. It also acts as a counterweight, balancing the knife.
• Wavy edge – The internally formed wavy edge gives clean cuts and is suitable for large fruit, vegetables or roasts. With its broad, long blade it is ideal for bread and cakes.
