Its a knife

I know Wusthof is one of the best, but we bought this knife as a gift to replace a friends missing 40 dollar Calphalon chefs knife. I don't see the real difference between the two... And although its a fabulous knife, and it cuts well, I think we would have all been satisfied with the calphalon again. But by no means is it a bad knife. In fact it is a fantastic knife. Just I dont know if its reeeally worth the money. Needless to say, he loves it and agrees it was a lot for a knife. We are glad we got it, but if you're not a chef, and you want a great knife, you don't necessarily need this Wusthof.

I bought this knife after it was recommended by Cook's Illustrated and I love it! It is very sharp and feels great in my hand. Considering how often I use it, it was definitely worth the money.

Great Knife

This chef's knife completes my set of three and I couldn't be happier. Its feel and blade design are just what I expected from this manufacturer and I have never been disappointed with their products. Expensive? Yes, But I'll probably give the set to my daughter in the far future.

This knife is wonderful. I had always used cheap knives (bought at the grocery store) until I finally splurged on a couple of good knives. It's amazing the difference. With this knife, a serrated utility knife and a small paring knife, I can handle virtually every task. Cooking is fun again!

This knife is beautiful and aesthetically correct; in addition, it holds an incredibly sharp edge.

I have been reading and hearing that no cook should be without a good Chef's or Cook's knife, so I sprung for this beauty. What a difference it makes compared to my other knives! Balanced and beautiful, I find excuses to use this kitchen helper. Thanks!!

My first professional knife

I love it. I'm really just beginning my cooking experiences, but have always wanted a high quality knife. They're going to have to bury me with this one. I need to buy more!

This should be the first knife everyone buys! I love it.

I love this knife. I used it to slice the turkey at Christmas and it did a beautiful job. I also used it to chop everything for Christmas dinner. It is a perfect weight and the handle is excellent.

I gave this as a Christmas present to my daughter, and she absolutely loves it! I would highly recommend this knife!

Excellent balance good size for general purpose works in the kitchen.

great, sturdy knife

This is a wonderful chef's knife. It is very sharp, fits well in your hand and is very nicely balanced, a pleasure to use.

I purchased this knife as a wedding present and the recipient has expressed complete satisfaction with the gift.

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.

Great knife

I bought this for my son who is a chef. He loves it and uses it on a daily basis at the restaurant

great knife.

Do not hesitate to buy this knife. The best knife I've ever used.

Good well balanced heavy knife but was not as sharp as I expected

Great! Very sharp. We have always had trouble finding truly sharp cooking knives. Hope we can keep it that way.

awesome!

My first test was to slice an over ripe tomato. Cut thru it like butter. Was able to cut almost transparent thin slices. Freakin awesome!!

Excellent Knife!!

We're super happy with this purchase, the knife came out of the box super sharp and ready to be used. It'll be an excellent utilitarian tool for anyone's kitchen.
