Enjoy the balance and heft of the 23cm Wusthof Classic Cook's Knife for all carving, slicing, chopping and dicing tasks. Fully forged from one piece of fine German steel, this superb knife is considered to be amongst the best cook's knives and this style is possibly the most versatile knife in a chef or home cooking enthusiast's collection. Once you own a knife like this, you'll be surprised at the difference a really good knife can make. Wusthof Classics feature thick bolsters with complete finger guards, triple-riveted full-tang handles, and multi-functional blade surfaces designed cleave, crush, and pound as efficiently as they cut. The triple-riveted handles are perfectly balanced and the razor sharp blade is tempered to the optimum 58 Rockwell for durability and double ground at 20 degrees.
