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 ease of use, and is the right tool for every home cook and professional. Single-piece forged blade in stainless (X50CrMoV15) steel, 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, easily restored edge. Made in 55 refined production steps: from forging through hardening and sharpening to polishing, and every perfectly made Classic knife passes more than 20 uncompromising quality control points. Particularly sharp thanks to the laser-guided sharpening process of Precision Edge Technology (PEtec). The final work carried out by hand by Wüsthof's experienced specialists provides extraordinary sharpness and quick, easy cutting.
Durable, comfortable handle panels of synthetic material made of polyoxymethylene (POM), which has a denser molecular structure to resist fading and discolouration. The full bolster protects the hand, ensuring safety and a 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, an optimal cutting edge along the full length of the blade, and a unique, consistently high and reproducible quality.
The Wüsthof Classic series is NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) certified for public health and food safety.
• Bolster - 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 provides balance as a counterweight to 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 to a traditional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
• Full bolster - The full finger guard reliably protects the fingers during everyday cooking, and the balance makes fast and precise work easier.
• Fluted blade - Cutting creates small air pockets in the hollows of the blade. This has the positive effect that thin or soft foods are easier to remove from the blade during use and do not stick to it.
• Butcher knife - The distinctive new knife is perfect for portioning meat and easily cuts large fruit and vegetables without effort. This specially designed model is an extremely artistic creation made of forged steel.
