One of the most trusted names in cutlery, Wüsthof offers an all-purpose chef's knife for a wide variety of cutting tasks. The long-lasting blade with a V-ground edge is precision-tapered from bolster to tip to maintain its shape and hold its edge. The thin yet strong blade is laser-cut from a single piece of high-carbon steel and easy to sharpen. Full tang adds weight and balance. The high-impact, molded synthetic handle is more durable and santiary than wood.
