A high-performance, robust knife
The 1040131317santoku knife from Wüsthof's Classic range is an indispensable cutting tool for all cooks. With its santoku shape, the knife is perfect for all precision work, making it ideal for preparing sushi and sashimi. But it can do much more, such as cutting meat or vegetables.
It features a 17cm blade made of X50CrMoV15 stainless steel. What's more, this knife has been forged from a single block of steel for exceptional strength and performance. The blade surface is with granton edge to reduce friction when cutting.
And that's not all: the blade is sharpened using a new technology called PEtec. This is laser-engineered to produce a highly resistant blade with a razor-sharp edge.
The handle, meanwhile, is made of synthetic material (POM). It offers you a safe and secure grip. What's more, the handle is riveted with three rivets, giving the knife unrivalled strength. Thanks to this ingenious design, no dirt can get between the blade and the handle.
