Wusthof's Classic Line of forged German Knives is the benchmark for craftsmanship, usability, design and function among knife companies. Full-tang and full-forged construction lend to their remarkable balance and control. The hand-honed edges offer the right balance between sharpness and durability. Not so acute that they need to be re-sharpened after every use, yet not so obtuse that they can't cut paper, at 22 degrees these knives are razor sharp yet beveled enough to hold a lasting edge. The triple-riveted handle is renowned for both its durability, comfort and timeless aesthetics. Like all Wusthof knives, the classic line is still made in Germany in what is one of the few surviving family-owned factories. Each knife carries a lifetime warranty. No kitchen should be without this manual food processor. It is the most essential of all knives used in the kitchen. Slicing, mincing, dicing of all kind of food, this perfectly balanced knife quickly becomes an extension of your hand. The 8-inch hollow ground chef's knife is an update an the old classic. The alternating kullens on both sides of the blade reduce friction and clinging resulting in a smoother, more delicate and quicker cut.
