Our Chef’s Knife is the dynamic all-rounder in the kitchen. With its 20 cm blade, this professional knife is ideal for precise, powerful work on all types of ingredients. It is suitable for all knife techniques – making it the perfect all-purpose knife for food lovers and professional chefs. Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating: the DLC-coated blade is the gold standard on the knife market. Thanks to the reduced friction, the blade glides effortlessly through both hard and soft clippings and is also resistant to external influences due to its extreme hardness. Hexagon Power Grip: the innovative, ergonomic handle with its offset non-slip honeycomb structure ensures ultimate control and is ideal for all working conditions.

When you use a WÜSTHOF knife, you can be sure that you are holding one of world’s best kitchen tools in your hand.

We have been developing and manufacturing our products in Solingen, Germany, the “City of Blades,” since 1814 – loyalty that pays off in the quality and reliability of our family business, knife by knife.

High quality WÜSTHOF steel: Our special stainless steel is durable, corrosion resistant, easy to sharpen, and reduces wear on the blade. Ideal for chef’s knives.

Impressive sharpness: For over 200 years, we’ve been refining the perfect edge and developing special techniques that keep our blades sharper for longer. Ideal for precise movements.
