Wusthof Classic 8″ Artisan Butcher Knife, Hollow Edge

The Classic 8″ Artisan Butcher Knife by Wusthof has striking silhouette. Its dramatically curved hollow-edge blade has a contoured finger guard and is extremely versatile. It is designed for portioning chops and steaks, and trimming cutlets and fillets. The pronounced skinning tip makes skinning stress-free. The utility of this unique knife goes beyond working with meat alone, and is great for large fruits and vegetables, as well. The hollow edge of the blade creates air pockets between the food and the blade, and reduces drag.

Each knife in the Classic triple riveted series by Wusthof-Trident is forged from a single piece of specially tempered high carbon stainless steel to ensure outstanding strength. The result of the patented Wusthof process is extraordinary, easy to maintain sharpness. The handles of these full-tang knifes are ergonomic, and are seamless, making them extremely hygienic. Classic knives by Wusthof are ideal for the professional chef or home cooking enthusiast.

PEtec The Best Is Now Better
Each Wusthof knife is now made with PEtec, a state of the art technology featuring a computer controlled method for creating a razor sharp, long lasting edge. This technology measures the blade before sharpening, and calculates the exact angle of 14 degrees per side (for a total of 28 degrees) for each blade. The blade is then sharpened on a whetstone using precision robots. The result is an optimum cutting edge along the entire length of the blade, resulting in an extremely high initial cutting potential and exceptionally long edge retention.
