Wüsthof Gourmet series
Agile and versatile. Gourmet knife blades are laser-cut from stainless X50CrMoV15 steel sheet and then processed in 35 production stages. The edge is formed to a 28° edge angle, and the final hand finishing by specialists ensures extraordinary sharpness and quick, easy cutting. Thanks to their very high hardness of 56 HRC, they are comparable in quality and sharpness to forged knives. Their low weight and unique ergonomics make them very comfortable to hold, extremely well balanced and strong, and make cutting easier 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, is as useful for households as a starter set or the basic equipment of a professional kitchen.
The Wüsthof Gourmet series is certified by NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) for public health and food safety.
• Hand guard – The ergonomic knife handle sits well in the hand, and the curved handle end 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 is also well suited to cheese and fruit.
• Decorative 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. It also acts as a counterweight, ensuring the blade is balanced.
• Wavy edge – The wavy edge created on the inside gives a clean cut and is suitable for large fruit, vegetables or roasts. With its wide, long blade it is excellent for bread and cakes.
