Know before you buy
The hollow edge features small indentations along the blade that create tiny air pockets. These pockets prevent food from sticking to the steel, allowing for smoother, cleaner slices through roasts and poultry.
No, this set is not dishwasher safe. To protect the integrity of the high-carbon steel and the handle construction, we recommend hand washing and drying the pieces immediately after use.
The full bolster acts as a transition point between the handle and the blade. It provides a comfortable finger rest, adds weight for better balance, and serves as a safety guard to keep your fingers away from the sharp edge.
Yes, the handles are crafted from a high-quality synthetic polymer (POM) that is triple-riveted to the full tang. This material is specifically engineered to resist fading, discoloration, and the wear of a busy kitchen environment.
Wüsthof provides a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and craftsmanship. This ensures that your investment is protected against manufacturing issues for the life of the product.
