Wusthof is a German cutlery company founded in Solingen in 1814. The company is renowned for the quality, durability and innovative designs of its models. It produces a wide range of knives and cutting accessories for the kitchen and table. Wusthof products are designed for superior cutting performance and exceptional precision!
The CLASSIC series is one of the German brand's iconic ranges. This chef's knife 1040130120 is one of them!
Revolutionary knife with unrivalled cutting edge
This Wüsthof chef's knife features a 20cm blade in X50CrMoV15 stainless steel. This steel is practical because it is highly durable, with a hardness of around 58 HRC. As a result, this alloy retains good cutting capacity even after many uses.
If it becomes dull, you can simply sharpen it with a Sharpening steel. It will regain its sharpness in no time. And with a 15% chromium content, the knife is highly resistant to oxidation.
Another point of note at Wusthof is the fact that the brand uses an innovative sharpening process calledPEtec technology. This engineering allows the blade to be measured before sharpening, using a laser. The result is a superior-quality blade that retains its edge longer and is easier to maintain.
Forged, the blade of the Wusthof Classic knife is made from a single block of solid steel. This is then shaped into the desired form.
Ergonomic, durable handle
The handle of your chef's knife is made of synthetic material (POM). It guarantees optimum comfort with every use, and therefore a better cutting experience. It also features 3 stainless steel rivets . These add strength and solidity to the knife. In addition, this model has a half-miter. In fact, it does not extend over the heel of the blade. This structure makes the knife lighter in the hand, while facilitating the sharpening process.
Finally, this chef's knife is NSF certified. This means that the product has been tested in recognized laboratories and fully complies with rigorous quality and safety criteria. You can therefore use it in professional environments.
