Wüsthof Classic series
Robust, sharp and functional - the classic kitchen tool series, which includes more than 70 different blade shapes (blade lengths from 6 to 36 cm), stands out for its ease of use, and is the right tool for all home cooking and professionals alike. Made from a single piece of stainless (X50CrMoV15) steel forged to 58 HRC hardness, with a 29° edge angle. This special, high-carbon, corrosion-resistant alloy ensures that the critical properties of every Wüsthof knife are retained from the outset: razor-sharp, long-lasting cutting edge, high rust resistance and an easily restored edge. Made in 55 refined production steps, from forging through hardening and sharpening to polishing, and every perfectly manufactured Classic knife passes more than 20 uncompromising quality control points. Particularly sharp thanks to the Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) laser-controlled sharpening process. The final hand finishing by Wüsthof's experienced specialists gives exceptional sharpness, quick and easy cutting. The handle panels are made of comfortable, durable synthetic material, polyoxymethylene (POM), which has a denser molecular structure to resist fading and discolouration. The full bolster protects the hand, ensuring safety and balanced weight distribution. The sturdy handle panels are triple-riveted for durability.
Wüsthof technology offers outstanding sharpness: extremely high initial cutting performance, exceptionally long edge retention, long blade life, optimal cutting edge along the full length of the blade, and a unique, consistently high and reproducible quality.
The Wüsthof Classic series has NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) certification for public health and food safety.
• 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 fixed with stainless steel rivets.
• Full tang - The blade runs through the handle, providing reliable stability for the knife. It also acts as a counterweight, balancing the blade.
• Precision double-serrated edge - The bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts hard crusts as easily as soft bread, or large fruits such as pumpkin. The difference compared with a traditional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
• Full bolster - The full finger guard reliably protects the fingers during everyday cooking, and the balance makes work quick and precise.
• Ribbed blade - When cutting, small air pockets form in the blade's hollows. The positive effect is that thin or soft foods are easier to release from the blade during use and do not stick to it.
• Cleaver - The distinctive new knife is perfectly suited for portioning meat, and effortlessly cuts large fruits and vegetables. This specially designed model is an extremely artistic creation in forged steel.
