Wüsthof Classic White series

With its white handles, the Wüsthof Classic series brings something special to the kitchen. With refined simplicity and striking elegance, these timeless knives offer everything needed to prepare and serve fresh food. They are perfectly balanced and comfortable to hold, and prepare the ingredients for any dish with effortless control. Robust, sharp and functional: the classic kitchen knife series stands out for its ease of use and is the right tool for every home cook and professional. The blade is forged from a single piece of X50CrMoV15 stainless steel and hardened to 58 HRC. This special high-carbon, corrosion-resistant alloy ensures that the key properties of every Wüsthof knife are there from the start: a razor-sharp, long-lasting cutting edge, high rust resistance and an edge that is easy to restore. The knives are made in 55 refined production steps, from forging through hardening and sharpening to polishing, and every Classic knife passes more than 20 uncompromising quality checkpoints. They are especially sharp thanks to the laser-guided Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) sharpening process. Final finishing done by hand by experienced Wüsthof craftsmen gives exceptional sharpness and fast, easy cutting. The comfortable, durable handle scales are made of polyoxymethylene (POM), a synthetic material with a denser molecular structure that resists fading and discolouration. The full bolster protects the hand, providing safety and balanced weight distribution. The robust handle scales are triple-riveted for durability. Wüsthof technology delivers outstanding sharpness: very high initial cutting performance, exceptionally long edge retention, a long blade life, an optimal cutting edge along the full length of the blade, and unique, consistently high and reproducible quality. Made entirely in Solingen, Germany. The Wüsthof Classic series is certified by NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) for public health and food safety.

• Full bolster: the full finger guard reliably protects the fingers during everyday cooking, and the balance makes fast, precise work easier.
• 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.
• 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.
• Precision double-serrated edge: the bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts hard crusts as easily as soft bread or large fruit and vegetables such as pumpkin. The difference compared with a conventional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
