Wüsthof Classic series
Robust, sharp and functional - the classic kitchen tool series, which includes more than 70 different blade shapes (6-36 cm blade length), stands out for ease of use and is the right tool for all home cooking and for professionals. Single-piece blade forged from 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 start: razor-sharp, long-lasting cutting edge, high rust resistance, easily restored edge. Produced 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 Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) laser-guided sharpening process. The final hand work by Wüsthof's experienced specialists delivers exceptional sharpness and fast, easy cutting.The synthetic handle panels are comfortable and durable, made of polyoxymethylene (POM), which has a denser molecular structure to resist fading and discolouration. The full bolster protects the hand, ensuring safety and balanced weight distribution. The robust handle panels 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 entire blade length, and consistently high, reproducible quality.
The Wüsthof Classic series holds NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) public health and food safety certification.
• 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.
• Full tang - The blade runs through the handle, providing reliable stability for the knife. 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 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 quick and precise work easier.
• Fluted blade - During cutting, small air pockets form in the blade's recesses. The positive effect is that thin or soft foods are easier to remove from the blade during use and do not stick.
• Butcher's knife - This characteristic new knife is perfect for portioning meat and cuts large fruit and vegetables effortlessly. The specially designed model is an extremely artistic creation of forged steel.
