Designed with the user in mind, the 11.4 cm resilient plastic handle fits comfortably in both left- and right-handed users' hands. The ergonomic shape combined with the double bolster contributes to the knife's exceptional balance, enabling you to utilize the entire length of the blade while maintaining sharpness. This thoughtful design ensures comfort during extended use, making it perfect for all chopping, slicing, dicing, and mincing tasks.
Care and Maintenance
To maintain the exquisite sharpness and quality of the Wüsthof knife, it is recommended to hand wash with mild soap and warm water, avoiding the dishwasher. Regular sharpening using a whetstone or sharpening steel is advised to keep the blade in peak condition. It is also best to store the knife in a knife block to protect its cutting edge and to use soft cutting boards to prolong its sharpness.
