Wusthof Classic 8-Inch Carving Knife

Wusthof Classic 8-Inch Carving Knife Review



Wusthof Classic 8-Inch Carving Knife Feature

  • Thin, narrow 8-inch blade with pointed tip ideal for meat and poultry carving
  • Forged high-carbon stainless steel blade, hand-honed for razor-like sharpness
  • Traditional-style composition handle is triple-riveted for strength and permanence
  • Dishwasher safe
  • Lifetime guarantee
The best knife for carving your turkey, chicken or roast is one that measures at least 8 inches long. That way you make one wide, sweeping slice without having to carve your meat back and forth. Wusthof's Carving Knife is one such knife - a hand-forged, high-carbon stainless steel knife that's the right size for carving. Prized possessions of professional chefs, Wusthof knives are an invaluable asset of any kitchen. Every element of this renowned cutlery contributes to its precision and ease of use. In Solingen, Germany, each piece is hand-forged in 38 manufacturing steps by skilled craftsmen. The high-carbon stainless steel blades are hardened to maintain a sharp edge and full tangs provide perfect balance with riveted, high-impact composition handles. Wusthof's newest state of the art technology incorporates a new computer controlled method for putting the edge on Classic knives. This technology allows for an exacting edge from the tip of the knife down to the heel of the knife. With this newer precision, the knives are made sharper to 14 degrees per side for a total of 28 degrees. The knives are now sharper and this refinement increases the sharpness retention because exacting angles and edges last longer than edges sharpened by hand. The result is a knife that is 30% sharper and the ICP (Initial Cutting Performance) lasts twice as long..

The extra sharp blade cuts beef, poultry, and pork with ease. The precision forged blade, bolster, and tang are married to the incredibly durable Hostaform-C handle, triple-riveted to the fully-visible tang.
Wüsthof knives offer a harmonious blend of precision cutting performance, integrity of materials, safety, and comfort.

The blades are perfectly tapered from bolster to tip, and from the back of the blades to the edges, and are honed by hand. Perfect balance is assured by the full extension of the tang through the length of the handle. A seamless, totally hygienic fit is achieved by the durable Hostaform-C handle, triple-riveted to the fully visible tang; the handle is buffed and polished by hand.

Though the knives are dishwasher-safe, Wusthof recommends hand-washing all fine cutlery. Made in Germany, the knife set is fully guaranteed to be free of defects in materials and/or craftsmanship. --Ann Bieri

Wusthof Gourmet 4-Piece Steak Knife Set

Wusthof Gourmet 4-Piece Steak Knife Set Review



Wusthof Gourmet 4-Piece Steak Knife Set Feature

  • Four 4-3/4-inch knives for cutting steaks, chops, roasts into bite-size pieces
  • Made of high-carbon, stainless-steel blade
  • Encases full-tang, 3-rivet, poly handle
  • Hand washing recommended
  • Dishwasher-safe, but hand washing recommended
Moderately priced companions to Wüsthof's renowned Classic forged knives, Gourmet Series knives have the same full-tang, three-rivet, virtually indestructible poly handles as Classic knives. Instead of being forged, however, Gourmet Series blades are cut from steel sheets by precision lasers. That means they have no bolsters. But it also means they are perfectly shaped and fit their handles seamlessly. And the blades' high-carbon stainless steel is identical to that of Wüsthof's premium knives, only thinner. The four steak knives in this set have straight edges for neatly slicing steaks, chops, and roasts into bite-sized pieces at the table. At 4-3/4 inches, they're long enough to handle the biggest porterhouse yet are nicely balanced and light in the hand. The knives are dishwasher-safe, but hand washing is recommended to protect their edges. --Fred Brack
