What customers say
This Wusthof Super Slicer earns exceptional acclaim for its unparalleled performance and superior German engineering. Users consistently praise the razor sharp edge retention, noting it glides effortlessly through large cuts of meat and fish, producing uniform slices without tearing. The hollow ground edge significantly reduces friction, preventing sticky foods from adhering to the blade. Reviewers also highlight the ideal balance and weight distribution, which makes the 10-inch length feel nimble and reduces hand fatigue during extended use. While the initial cost is high, owners agree this durable slicer represents a lifetime purchase, consistently delivering professional grade results that elevate the carving experience.
Know before you buy
The 10-inch blade is specifically designed for long, clean, and precise cuts. It excels at slicing roasts, hams, turkeys, and large fruits or vegetables where a single, smooth motion is required.
This slicer features a forged, high-carbon stainless steel blade that is designed for rigidity. This provides the stability needed to make uniform slices through dense proteins without the blade bending.
While the knife is technically dishwasher safe, we strongly recommend hand washing. High-heat cycles and harsh detergents can dull the hand-honed edge and potentially damage the handle over time.
The high-carbon steel provides excellent edge retention, meaning it stays sharp longer than standard stainless steel. However, it should be dried immediately after washing to prevent water spots and maintain the integrity of the metal.
No, the Wüsthof Classic 10" Super Slicer does not include a sheath or case. We recommend storing it in a knife block or on a magnetic strip to protect the edge from coming into contact with other utensils.
