Wüsthof Classic Knife Chinese Model Knife 18 cm
This Wüsthof Classic Chinese chef's knife is shaped like a cleaver, but is intended for cutting and chopping herbs and vegetables. In Chinese cuisine, this type of chef's knife is often used because the height of the blade allows you to easily use your fingers as a guide when cutting with this knife. It is safe, fast and very practical. This Chinese chef's knife can also be used to cut garlic, for example, but not to cut meat with bones.
Wüsthof Classic blade : very sharp stainless steel
The chrome vanadium steel (X50CrMoV15) blade is forged from a single piece of steel. It is sharpened according to the Wüsthof PEtec technology. This means that for each blade the sharpening angle is determined with the help of a computer. It is then precisely honed on a wet whetstone. After a thorough inspection, each knife rolls off the production line, ready for a lifetime of heavy use.
Wüsthof processes the steel in a specific way to ensure that it has a high hardness of 58 Rockwell. Thus, the knife retains its sharpness for a long time. However, if you notice that the knife is not as sharp as before, it is enough to pass it through a steel steel. The result is a very sharp knife that is amazing to use.
Wüsthof Classic handle : sustainable and hygienic
This knife is a combination of a forged blade and an ergonomic handle made of black POM, a highly sustainable type of plastic. The handle can resist all substances found in the kitchen. It is traditional, and of course seamless, attached to the blade with three rivets. Thus, dirt cannot accumulate between the blade and the handle. The ferrule protects fingers from unnecessary contact with the cutting edge.
