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 triple-riveted 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.

Excellent for slicing!
by Denise, CO
July 14, 2010
This knife slices through meat and vegetables so easily and smoothly. I am really impressed by how sharp it is although I have only had it for a couple of weeks. It comes with a sharpener so I think I will be able to keep the blade sharp. The knife is not meant to chop through thick rinds and such as the blade is very thin. But used to slice or chop it is a great knife.

I ordered the knives for my adult son as I already use these same knives in my Bistro Kitchen and know them to be excellent. The price through Cooking.com was the best on the market, as I did a lot of comparison.

I was skeptical. How much different could this knife be from the "cheapie" knives I already have. The other reviews on this website gave me the motivation to try one. I absolutely love this knife. Who knew that you don't have to squash your veggies as you cut them! I will recommend this to my family and friends. This is the perfect size knife and I find myself grabbing it for all my cutting needs.

I have given this knife as wedding, birthday or Christmas gifts because I absolutely love my own. This knife will save you money in the long run because you won't want to buy the prepackaged, ready-to-use, pricey veggies because you will want to bust out your Santoku and chop your own!

After waiting so excitedly for theSantoku knife, I find that is not particularly special in the way it slices. It is not much different from the 7" chef's knife.
The price seems exorbitant to me.

I purchased this knife in December as a gift for the holidays. I have owned this particular Santoku knife, myself, for about two years and use it almost daily. It has become almost a replacement for my cook's knife as far as vegetables are concerned. My cutlery is exclusively Wusthof and I highly recommend it.

I love this knife because it is so manageable. It has a completely different feel and handling capabilities from an 8 inch chef knife.

I bought my mother a similar knife for Christmas and used it at her house -- had to have one for myself! This is the sharpest and most well-balanced knife I have ever had. When I cut an apple in two, it sliced the stem neatly in half too! :-)

This will be my kitchen companion for a lifetime! Sharp edge, easy to handle. Chops like a dream....
The price was the same at other places I checked, but buying online was more convenient.
