Description

The Wusthof Classic Kiritsuke Prep Knife features a unique versatile blade shape much like a Santoku, but with a curved edge to facilitate rocking. Easy to control 6″ blade length, yet large enough for most tasks. Performs effortlessly when cutting, slicing or dicing a variety of ingredients, including small and medium sized fruits, vegetables and cheeses, and can even be used to trim meats and poultry.
Wusthof Classic full-tang knives are precision forged from a single piece of exclusive Wusthof high-carbon stainless steel. The handle design is made of a highly durable synthetic material known as Polyoxymethylene (POM), which features a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discoloration. Each Wusthof Classic knife features a computer controlled cutting edge to ensure the final edge of the blade is precise and uniform from the tip to the heel. The Wusthof PEtec angle and tapered cutting edge reduces drag when slicing foods, allowing for seamless and effortless cutting. Each knife blade is completely buffed and polished by hand. Wusthof Classic knives are made in Solingen, Germany with a lifetime warranty.
