Wüsthof Gourmet series
Agile and versatile. Gourmet knife blades are laser-cut from rolled X50CrMoV15 stainless steel sheet, then processed in 35 production stages. The edge is formed to a 28° edge angle, and the final work done by hand by specialists provides exceptional sharpness and quick, easy cutting. Thanks to their very high hardness of 56 HRC, they are comparable to forged knives in quality and sharpness. Their low weight and unique ergonomics make them very comfortable to hold, extremely well balanced and strong, making cutting easier and gentler on both hand and wrist. The special black plastic handle is triple-riveted. It is 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 home kitchens as a starter set or as essential equipment in a professional kitchen.
The Wüsthof Gourmet series holds NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) certification for public health and food safety.
• Bolster - The ergonomic knife handle fits well in the hand, and the curved handle end prevents slipping. The robust handle panels are fixed with stainless steel rivets.
• Tomato knife - The tomato knife's finely serrated edge cuts smoothly through firm tomato skin, while the split tip lifts the slices. The knife is also well suited to 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 chefs.
• Full tang - The blade runs through the handle, providing reliable stability for the knife. It also provides balance as a counterweight to the blade.
• Wavy edge - The internally formed wavy edge gives clean cuts and is suitable for large fruit, vegetables or roasts. With its wide, long blade it is excellent for bread and cakes.
