Wüsthof Classic series
Robust, sharp and functional: the classic kitchen tool series, with 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 home and professional cooking alike. Single-piece forged stainless (X50CrMoV15) steel blade, 58 HRC hardness, with a 29° edge angle. This special high-carbon, corrosion-resistant alloy ensures that every Wüsthof knife keeps its critical properties from the outset: razor-sharp, long-lasting cutting edge, high rust resistance, easily restored edge. Made in 55 refined steps, from forging through hardening and sharpening to polishing, and every perfectly made Classic knife passes over 20 uncompromising quality checks. Especially sharp thanks to the laser-controlled Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) sharpening process. The final hand finishing by Wüsthof's experienced specialists delivers extraordinary sharpness and fast, easy cutting.
Comfortable and durable synthetic handle scales made of polyoxymethylene (POM), which has a denser molecular structure to resist fading and discolouration. The full bolster protects the hand and ensures safety and balanced weight distribution. The sturdy handle scales 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 blade length, and consistently high, reproducible quality.
The Wüsthof Classic series holds the 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. It also acts as a counterweight, balancing the blade.
• Precision double-serrated edge: the bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts a hard crust as easily as soft bread, or large fruit such as pumpkin. The difference compared with a conventional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
• Full bolster: the complete finger guard reliably protects the fingers during everyday cooking, and the balance makes work quick and precise.
• Hollow-ground blade: when cutting, small air pockets form at the recesses of the blade. This helps thin or soft foods come off the blade more easily during use and keeps them from sticking.
• Butcher's knife: this distinctive new knife is perfect for portioning meat and effortlessly cuts large fruit and vegetables. This special-design model is a highly artistic creation in forged steel.
