Wüsthof Classic White Series

The Wüsthof Classic knife series with white handles adds a special touch to the kitchen. With sophisticated simplicity and stunning elegance, these timeless knives offer everything you need to prepare and serve fresh dishes. They are perfectly balanced, comfortable to hold, and easy to control, while preparing ingredients for any dish. Robust, sharp and functional - the classic kitchen tool series that stands out for its ease of use and is the right tool for every home cook and professional. Blade forged from a single piece of stainless steel (X50CrMoV15) with a hardness of 58 HRC. This special, high-carbon, corrosion-resistant alloy ensures that the critical properties of every Wüsthof knife are retained from the start: razor-sharp, long-lasting cutting edge, high rust resistance, easy to restore edge. They are made in 55 sophisticated production steps: from forging to hardening and sharpening to polishing, and every perfectly manufactured Classic knife undergoes more than 20 uncompromising quality control points. Particularly sharp thanks to the Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) laser-controlled sharpening process. The hand-finished finish by experienced Wüsthof craftsmen ensures exceptional sharpness, fast and easy cutting. They have grip panels made of a comfortable and durable synthetic material, polyoxymethylene (POM) - which has a more compact molecular structure to resist fading and discoloration. The full-length bakni protects the hand, ensuring safety and balanced weight distribution. The robust grip panels are triple riveted for durability. Wüsthof technology offers outstanding sharpness: extremely high initial cutting performance, exceptionally long edge retention, long blade life, optimal cutting edge along the entire length of the blade, unique, consistently high and reproducible quality. It is made entirely in Solingen, Germany. The Wüsthof Classic series is certified by the NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) for public health and food safety.

• Full tang - The full finger guard reliably protects the fingers during everyday cooking, and the balance facilitates fast and precise work.
• Full tang - The blade reaches all the way into the handle, providing reliable stability for the knife. In addition, it acts as a counterweight to ensure the blade is balanced.
• Hand guard - The ergonomic knife handle fits well in the hand, and the curved handle tip prevents slipping. The robust handle panels are secured with stainless steel rivets.
• Ribbed blade - Small air pockets form in the recesses of the blade when cutting. The positive effect of this is that thin or soft foods can be removed from the blade more easily during use and do not stick to it.
• Precision double-serrated edge - The bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts through hard crusts like soft bread or large fruits like pumpkins with just as much ease. The difference compared to a traditional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
