Styled after the Japanese Cook's Knife, this 7-in. blade is just right for sushi and sashimi - or anything else that needs to be sliced paper thin. The hollow indents in the blade allow food to slide right off without sticking. Also works well when dicing onions or other vegetables.
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.

I don't know why I waited so long to purchase this knife. Even the feel of it in your hand is very different from less expensive knives. I would recommend this knife to everyone.

Very nice knife in a good length and nice balance for easy handling. Performs very well for slicing, dicing, and every other task I have used it for.

This is possibly the best knife ever made. My 'tool chest' only has this and a paring knife. Who needs anything more???

This knife lives up to the reviews I have read. Great for slicing particularly if you want the slices thin. Holds its edge, too.

This was a Christmas gift for my husband who has been cooking for about 2 years. He loves the feel of the knife, the weight and balance and the ease of cutting.

This is the single best Wusthof knife and the most used Wusthof knife I own. If you only have one good knife in your kitchen, this should be the one!

Knife arrives a bit dull and needs sharpening. Otherwise,a well-balanced knife and very comfortable in the hand.

If it were any sharper and you were careless, it'd drop through the table top!

This knife is very sharp, light and well-balanced. The combination of a thinner blade than a standard chef's knife with the hollow edge design minimize drag when cutting larger items, such as slicing large onions.

Beautiful knife! It is worth the money, even though it is a bit pricy. It is razor sharp and quite dependable. I love it!

I have watched cooks on television use this knife, and it makes chopping look so easy. With this knife, it really is. I think everyone should own at least one!
