Further manufacturer information:
The iconic Wüsthof Classic steak knife, like every Wüsthof, was forged in the centuries-old global centre of cutlery making: Solingen, Germany. The extra-sharp blade cuts perfectly through favourite meat and vegetable dishes, and beautifully complements any table setting. Every Classic steak knife is forged from a single piece of specially hardened, high-carbon steel and precision-sharpened to stay sharp for longer. The elegant handle is triple-riveted and has a full tang construction for excellent safety and durability.
Ideal for slicing fillet, meat, roast, roasted dishes and steak.

Wüsthof Classic series
Robust, sharp and functional – the classic kitchen tool series, which contains 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 stainless (X50CrMoV15) steel blade, 58 HRC hardness, with a 29° edge angle. This special, high-carbon, corrosion-resistant alloy ensures that every Wüsthof knife keeps its critical properties from the start: razor-sharp, long-lasting cutting edge, high rust resistance, and an 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 Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) laser-controlled sharpening process. The final work, done by hand by Wüsthof's experienced specialists, provides extraordinary sharpness and fast, simple cutting.
Comfortable and durable, the handle has synthetic panels 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, a long blade life, an optimal cutting edge along the full length of the blade, and consistently high and reproducible quality.
The Wüsthof Classic series is certified by NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) for public health and food safety.
• Hand guard – The ergonomic knife handle fits the hand well, and the curved end of the handle prevents slipping. The robust handle panels are secured with stainless steel rivets.
• Full tang – The blade runs through the handle, providing reliable stability. It also acts as a counterweight, balancing the blade.
• Precision double-serrated edge – The bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts hard crusts 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 work quick and accurate.
• Grooved blade – When cutting, small air pockets form 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.
• Butcher's knife – This distinctive new knife is perfect for portioning meat and effortlessly cuts large fruit and vegetables. This specially designed model is an extremely artistic creation in forged steel.
