Product description

Known worldwide for their superior performance, Wusthof knives are the cutlery of choice among many professionals and by discriminating amateur chefs. The classic Series features a traditional styling that makes it the most popular of the Wusthof lines. Every Wusthof classic Series knife is still forged from one piece of specially Tempered high carbon steel to ensure outstanding strength, balance and heft. The blades are formed with the perfect balance of high-carbon steel and a stain-resistant alloy so they retain their edge longer and are easier to resharpen. The blade is ground and polished by computer, ensuring perfect tapering from bolster to tip, and the edge is then hand honed for precision slicing. The sturdy feel of this knife is achieved by the weighted bolster, which is considered to be Wusthof signature feature. The tang runs through the synthetic handle and is secured with three rivets. Ideal companion to a chef's knife. What makes this different from a standard "Paring knife"? It's shaped more like a Japanese-style "petty knife", in that the blade is deeper (Wusthof says "wider", but that implies blade thickness. . . The blade is not thicker! ) at the heel, so it's shaped more like a small chef knife or Santoku, and not like a dagger-shaped (narrow) European-style utility knife. This gives you a bit more finger clearance so it really is more versatile and useful for small slicing/dicing jobs instead of just Paring. Very handy -- you'll love it!

• With its special blade shape, the new kitchen surfer from Wusthof is the perfect all-rounder for all cutting tasks in the kitchen or at the Table.
• Part of the classic Series, This knife represents two centuries of unexcelled Wusthof craftsmanship.
• Traditional-style composition handle is triple riveted to the full tang of the blade ~ Forged from High Carbon German "X50CrMoV15" No Stain steel
• Blade, bolster & tang forged from single piece of high-carbon German stainless steel blades feature the new Wusthof PEtec edge for greater sharpness and edge retention.
• Made in "the cutlery Capital of the world" Solingen Germany

Care and handling of Genesis cutlery.

The performance of a knife can be diminished if not cared for properly.

Cutlery should never be washed in a dishwasher because intense heat and harsh detergents may cause the handle to deteriorate. Carefully wash by hand with soap and warm water, rinse and dry with a soft towel. Do not soak or submerge in water for long periods of time or use chlorine bleach because it can pit and discolor the blade. Avoid soaking in aluminum or stainless steel sinks because these metals may cause pitting on the blade.

Store in a cutlery block or sheath to preserve the cutting edges and prevent injuries.
