## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between Classic and Gourmet knives?**
A: The Wusthof Classic knives are the better quality of the two. They are forged from a single piece of steel. The Gourmet knives are stamped out a sheet of steel. The forged knife has a bit more weight to it and should stay sharper longer.

**Q: What is the edge angle of the blade?**
A: I believe the answer you're looking for is: 14 degrees (for Wusthof's Chef/Western knives. 10 degrees for their Asian knives).

When using honing or sharpening steels, use a 14 degree angle to restore the blade to perfect sharpness. If you use a Wusthof steel (and you should, it is made to be harder than the knife itself and all manufacturers use different hardnesses. The hardness rating on the Wusthof Classic is 58 and their steels are at 65), if you angle the blade so the top of it aligns with the outer edge of the steel handle, you'll be at right about 14 degrees. I suggest visiting the Wusthof website, and viewing the video there about honing and sharpening their knives using their steels. You'll see "Chef Mike" demonstrating that very technique.

I'm answering this now, even though it's a year and a half later, because it may useful to others as well. :)

**Q: How do I get it engraved? Cant find where you add that on.**
A: depending on where you live, any Cutlery store employee can tell you.

**Q: What's the difference bertween the classic chef's knife and the gourmet chef's knife?**
A: The gourmet is a standard quality knife while the classic is the "top of the line".

    Nice and sharp,
  

*by L***E on Reviewed in the United States on 23 January 2024*

Sharp, not "almost sharp " like stamped out knives.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Does what any good cook's knife does, but is a bit more nimble and easier to handle than a larger knife.
  

*by "***" on Reviewed in the United States on 2 August 2018*

I know that 8" cook's knives are the 'standard' size for most chefs. But for what I tend to prepare, I find the smaller 6" cook's knife to be much more suitable,  bit more nimble, and a perfect balance between heft and ease of use. I like that it's a lighter weight blade, but still heavy enough to attack bones or denser roots like ginger and turnips. I rarely prep very large items (whole birds, roasts, etc.), and I prepare a lot of asian foods, which tend to be heavy on the veggies, and use smaller cuts of meats.For my all around go-to knife this is the first one I reach for. I also use a very lightweight 4.75" Japanese Santoku for prepping soup-based dishes (heavy on the mushrooms, green onions, and other veggies) that need special cuts. The santoku doesn't handle bones at all, which  is when this cook's knife steps in and gets the job done. I'm so impressed with Wusthof's Classic line, I went ahead and added an extra-wide 4" paring knife and a shorter 4.75" cook's knife. I might need a larger knife one day, but this collection is satisfying all my prep needs for now. The 6" cook's knife is highly recommended!
