Wusthof Classic Chef's Knife

The heft of a chef's knife is intended to let gravity do most of the work. And because a firm, comfortable grip is essential, choose several knives from a wide variety of sizes that conform to your hand. Black Classic cutlery features precision-forged blades of Wusthof's own high-carbon, stain-resistant steel alloy, for a lasting edge that is easy to resharpen. Wusthof's distinctive bolster prevents your hand from slipping into the blade, and the handle, made of a virtually indestructible composite, is buffed by hand for a smooth finish and triple-riveted to the full tang for optimum strength and balance. Dishwasher safe, but hand-washing is recommended. Made in Solingen, Germany. Free sharpening of your Wusthof knives, by Wusthof, exclusively for CHEFS customers. Spend $99 or more on Wusthof products, and you'll receive a certificate (with your order) for free sharpening for all of your Wusthof knives (excludes serrated edge knives) at an authorized Wusthof sharpening center. Once you receive your order, follow the instructions on the certificate. Your Wusthof knives will be sharpened and returned free of charge. You are only responsible for postage to the sharpening service center.
