Choose performance in the kitchen with the 16cm Wüsthof Performer chef knife!
This chef's knife features a 16cm blade ideal for cutting boneless meat, vegetables and fish, as well as chopping or mincing aromatic herbs. Its distinctive all-black design offers numerous advantages.
The blade is made of X50CrMoV15 stainless steel, a widely used alloy known for its strength and resistance to shock and corrosion. It achieves a hardness of around 58 HRC, ensuring long-lasting sharpness and easy stone sharpening.
This blade has been laser-sharpened using PEtec technology. This gives you a clean-cut blade that is highly effective on both soft and hard foods.
A black DLC-coating covers the blade. With its carbon structure, it offers diamond-like strength and enhances the robustness of this chef's knife. It also protects the blade against scratches and traces of acidity from certain foods, such as peppers and oranges.
On the coating at the back of the blade is the Wüsthof logo embossed in large size in a lighter shade. This gives the chef's knife a lot of character.
The handle is made of polyamide. This is a very robust and long-lasting synthetic material. It also contains 15% fiberglass for added strength. As a result, the handle is resistant to wear and tear, high temperatures and excellent shock absorption. So you can use the knife for a long time without tiring.
The surface of the handle is also textured like a honeycomb. This ensures an excellent, safe grip, as the knife won't slip, even when your hands are wet. Performance and safety are the watchwords.
This Wüsthof high-tech chef's knife was designed by and for professional chefs. However, it is also suitable for home use.
Made in Germany, we advise you to wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly before storing. This chef's knife comes in an elegant cardboard box.
