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 formed to a 28° edge angle, and the final work done by hand by specialists provides extraordinary sharpness and quick, easy cutting. Thanks to their very high 56 HRC hardness, they are comparable in quality and sharpness to forged knives. Their low weight and unique ergonomics make them very comfortable to hold, highly balanced and strong, making cutting easier and lighter on both hand and wrist. The special black plastic handle is triple-riveted. Dishwasher safe, and therefore extremely hygienic. The Gourmet series offers an excellent price-performance ratio, and with more than 40 different products it is just as useful for home kitchens as a starter set or as an essential piece of equipment for a professional kitchen.
The Wüsthof Gourmet series holds NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) public health and food safety certification.
• Hand guard – The ergonomic knife grip fits well in the hand, and the curved end of the handle prevents slipping. The robust handle panels are secured with stainless steel rivets.
• Tomato knife – The finely serrated edge of the tomato knife cuts smoothly through firm tomato skin, while the split tip lifts the slices. The knife can also be used well for cheese and fruit.
• Decorating knife – A special blade for decoratively cutting raw and cooked fruit and vegetables, or for finely portioning butter, is ideal for creative cooks.
• Full tang – The blade runs fully through the handle, providing reliable stability for the knife. In addition, it acts as a counterweight, ensuring the blade is balanced.
• Wavy edge – The inside-formed wavy edge produces clean cuts and is suitable for large fruits, vegetables or roasts. With its wide, long blade it is excellent for bread and cakes.
