Knife set of 3 WMF Spitzenklasse Plus knives: Paring knife + Utility + Chef

Choose this set of 3 WMF Spitzenklasse Plus knives for your everyday cooking!

This set contains the 3 most frequently used kitchen knives:

- 1 8cm paring knife: ideal for peeling and slicing small fruits and vegetables

- 1 14cm utility knife: perfect for slicing and dicing medium-sized fruit and vegetables

- 1 20cm chef's knife: the ultimate all-rounder for slicing meat, fish, fruit and vegetables

These knives all feature an X50CrMoV15 stainless steel blade, a very strong and durable alloy. It contains around 0.5% carbon for hardness, 15% chromium for rust-resistance, molybdenum for strength and rust-resistance, and vanadium for shock resistance.

These blades have been traditionally forged in one of Germany's largest forges, in Hayingen. Forging gives the blades a high-quality cutting edge, and therefore long durability. After forging, the blades are sharpened using the Performance Cut process: they are heated in a special furnace that modifies the structure of the steel. The steel hardens and is then ground at a sharper-than-average angle. This gives the blades a more precise and regular contour, and helps them retain their sharpness over the long term.

Knives also have forged handles. They are made of sturdy, highly hygienic plastic. They are fitted with 3 stainless steel rivets, which reinforce the knives' solidity and give them ideal balance when handled. The handles have a curved shape that makes them pleasant to use over time. The bolster of these knives is also forged and serves as a protective guard: it prevents your fingers from slipping on the blade.

We recommend washing your kitchen knives by hand and drying them immediately to preserve their original condition over time. They are ideal as a gift for someone just settling in, or for anyone looking for affordable, high-performance kitchen knives.
