Wüsthof Gourmet series
Agile and versatile. The blades of Gourmet knives are laser-cut from rolled stainless X50CrMoV15 steel sheet, then processed in 35 production stages. The edge is ground to a 28° edge angle, and the final hand finishing by specialists gives extreme sharpness, quick and easy cutting. Thanks to their very high hardness of 56 HRC, they are comparable in quality and sharpness to forged knives. Their lower weight and unique ergonomics make them very comfortable to hold, highly balanced and strong, making cutting easier and less strenuous for both hand and wrist. The special black plastic handle is secured with three rivets. Dishwasher safe, and therefore extremely hygienic. The Gourmet series offers excellent value for money and, with more than 40 different products, is just as useful for domestic households as a starter set or as essential equipment for a professional kitchen.
The Wüsthof Gourmet series holds the NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) certificate 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 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 the decorative cutting of raw and cooked fruit and vegetables, or for finely portioning butter, is ideal for creative cooks.
• Full tang – The blade runs through the handle, providing reliable stability for the knife. It also acts as a counterweight, balancing the blade.
• Wavy edge – The wavy edge formed on the inside produces a clean cut and is suitable for large fruit, vegetables or roasts. The wide, long blade is ideal for bread and cakes.
