Arrived dull but standard classic chef knife

Seems to be the same quality you would expect from Wusthof products but it arrived very dull. The paper test fails. Very disappointed with the finish and expect more from a brand like this. When buying, make sure you have a wet stone.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Some little things

Right Handed Only - Cutlery & Knife Accessories

DO NOT BUY this knife if you are left handed. The rib is on the right side of the knife and only works if you hold the product with your left hand and the knife with your right and expect the slice to fall to the right. The rib only gets in the way when you're doing something. and vice versa.

Pros
  • There is something special about this
Cons
  • Updates

Excellent knife. suitable for cutlery and knife accessories

As the Executive Sous Chef in a well-known Grand, my knives are used regularly and extensively. During my career I have used many different knives from different manufacturers. The Wüsthof is by far my preferred choice and this particular knife is one of my favorites in my collection. I personally couldn't be happier.

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Protection

Really works! for cutlery and knife accessories

For starters, yes, this knife is best suited for those who use it with their right hand. However, this knife is ideal for cutting hard vegetables such as potatoes. The perforations prevent the knife from sticking to the side of the vegetable being held, while a rib on the right side of the knife pushes the cut portion away from the blade. Exactly what I was hoping for!

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • For old

Works as advertised and is great value for money

This is the best chef's knife for cutting any food that tends to stick, especially potatoes and cheese, but is also great for any other veg . I use it for carrots, peppers, onions, whatever. But it goes well with potatoes, tomatoes and cheese. Holes and comb work as advertised. They push sticky products away from the knife and make difficult cutting tasks easier.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other attachments

function trick. Buy a traditional knife.

This is more useless than helpful. The atypical shape makes cleaning more difficult compared to traditional blades. The underside and raised area only occasionally aid in detaching objects from the blade. This knife does not match my traditional blades. It was a waste of money. The branding is on the opposite side of the other blades in the series.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Working Speed

Works as advertised and good value for money

This is the best chef's knife for slicing any food that likes to burn, especially potatoes and cheese, but it's also great for any other veg. I use it for carrots, peppers, onions, whatever. But it goes well with potatoes, tomatoes and cheese. Holes and comb work as advertised. They push sticky products away from the knife and make difficult cutting tasks easier.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging

Wow! What a knife!: Kitchen & Dining

My wife loves to cook so we recently updated her knives. This was a specialty knife that we saw had great reviews and they were right! An additional feature of this knife is an edge on one side that physically causes whatever you just cut to "fall off" the knife instead of sticking to it. You don't need your fingers to hold tomatoes, lettuce and whatever else you're chopping. They just fall to the side and you can keep cutting. Very well made and easy to use, like all of our other Wustoff…

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Zero

Great quality - a little disappointed with the blade design

Like it but a little disappointed with the knife. I bought it because it said a special design (whole parts of the blade) was made so that the veggies would move away from the blade as you cut them - hmm - not really. I've tried potatoes, carrots, and other "tough" veggies and they still stick to the blade a bit. Also, it's definitely a right-handed tool, so forget it if you're left-handed. I like the weight of the handle, the quality of the blade, the design. I have several other Wüsthof…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure
