WÜSTHOF Gourmet Six Inch Utility Knife | 6" German Utility Knife | Precise Laser Cut High Carbon Stainless Steel Utility Knife – Model

I have a full set of Henckles kitchen knives, the Professional S series. They are wonderful knives with forged blades, full tangs, and the 3-rivet classic design. They are designed for a lifetime of service with proper care and sharpening. However, I needed a particular knife that was not in that series: a 4.5- to 5-inch utility-style knife for everyday food prep purposes. I found this 4.5 inch one in the Wusthof Gourmet series for a good price and decided to try it. (I already have a 3-inch spear-point paring knife from this same series and found it quite nice to use). While it is a stamped rather than forged blade, I found that to be a good thing. The blade is thinner from top to bottom, with a thinner handle, so the knife overall is comparatively lighter and more flexible, providing the ability to make very precise cuts. IMHO it is the ideal size for slicing and dicing fruits and vegetables or prepping small cuts of meat or fish prior to cooking. The blade is actually 4.75 inches, so it's a perfect “just-right” compromise between a 3- to 4-inch paring knife and a 6-inch utility knife. It also has a sufficient bolster to protect your fingers. And for just $40, less than half the price of the exact same knife with a forged blade in the Wusthof Classic line for $95, I think it is a tremendous value for a knife produced by such a legendary brand. Highly recommended.

The first time I used it, I even got a cut. But you cannot beat the quality. Slices through whatever you need without too much pressure on your hands.

It will slice and dice anything you put in front of it! This is the perfect size for a utility knife and the serrations makes it easy to cut anything and everything from bread to tomatoes! If your looking for that all in one kitchen knife this is it. Highly recommended!

Expensive, but worth it for an everyday knife. Finding that we are using this for everything and haven't found an instant that it didn't work in. Very sharp (as attested but micro cuts on my fingers - lol). Like it so much I got another one - woot!!

We love Wustoff knives. There is quality here. Worth the price. This one is my husbands favorite!

It's a knife. Good enough. However, it wasn't very sharp as received. Go figure.

Very outstanding knife.

Wusthof knives are a game changer for me. This is the third knife, 1 chef knife and now 2 paring knives. So razor sharp yet lightweight and comfortable to use. Don’t mind chopping anymore. Highly recommend!

When you buy a Wusthof knife, you can be sure of quality. The knife is exceedingly sharp and is solidly constructed. It may seem somewhat pricey but well worth it.

The media could not be loaded.  Muy cómodo en la mano, aunque el material del mando no es el mejor al tacto, en comparación con otros de la marca. Del filo no hay nada mas que decir, es excelente. Le pongo 4 estrellas porque para el costo podría tener un mejor material.

Mit diesem Messer ist man in der Küche für alles bereit zu schneiden. Super Messer das man unbedingt in der Küche haben sollte.

I love everything about these quality knives

Wüsthof ist Qualität, habe ein Sortiment davon, würde ich wieder kaufen.Preis ist schon etwas hoch.
