Wüsthof Gourmet series

Agile and versatile. Gourmet blades are precision laser-cut from X50CrMoV15 stainless steel sheet and then processed in 35 production stages. The edge is ground to a 28° angle, and final finishing done by hand by skilled craftsmen gives exceptional sharpness and fast, easy cutting. Thanks to their very high hardness of 56 HRC, they are comparable in quality and sharpness to forged knives. Their lower weight and unique ergonomics make them very comfortable to hold; they are well balanced and strong, and make cutting easier on both the hand and the wrist. The handle, made of a special black plastic, is triple-riveted. Dishwasher safe and therefore highly hygienic. The Gourmet series offers excellent value for money and, with more than 40 different products, is just as useful in the home kitchen as a starter set or as basic equipment for a professional kitchen. The Wüsthof Gourmet series is certified by NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) for public health and food safety.

• Hand guard: the ergonomic handle fits the hand well and the curved butt prevents slipping. The robust handle scales are fixed with stainless steel rivets.
• Full tang: the blade runs through the full length of the handle, giving the knife reliable stability. It also acts as a counterweight, keeping the blade balanced.
