Description

Bread Knife

The bread knife is ideal for all foods with a crust, as its serrated blade allows the knife to penetrate the outer crust without breaking it. It has a long length and can be used on all foods with a hard outer surface, even sweets.

Blade Material

The blade is made of a single piece of surgical steel that contains chromium-molybdenum-vanadium (X50 Cr MoV 15).

X50 Cr MoV 15 is a widely used steel that is used in many kitchen knives and its composition includes about 0.5% carbon (X50), which provides hardness to the blade's edge, and about 15% chromium (Cr), which provides corrosion resistance.

In addition, it contains a small percentage of molybdenum (Mo) and vanadium (V), which offer improved wear resistance and maintain the sharpness of the knife.

The Wusthof knife is designed to provide reliable cutting performance and long-lasting durability.

The hardness level of the blade is 56 (±1) HRC (a knife with a hardness above 56 HRC is considered good).

Handle

The handle is made of durable synthetic material that provides resistance, friction resistance, and corrosion resistance. The three rivets on the handle of the knife contribute to increased stability and control during use.

Cutting Surface

It is recommended to make cuts on wooden or plastic cutting surfaces. Glass, stone, and marble cutting surfaces are unsuitable as they can cause permanent damage to the knife blades.

Cleaning

Wash the knife with warm water before using it for the first time. After each use, make sure to wash the knife immediately (with a mild detergent) and dry it with a soft cloth. Especially if you have cut acidic foods, you should wash the knife immediately after use.

For your own safety, you should always wipe the knife away from your body and away from its edge, using a cloth or towel.

It is not recommended to wash it in the dishwasher, but by hand, in order to protect its material and maintain its sharpness for a long time.

Sharpening

No matter how sharp a knife is at first, after some use it needs sharpening, something you can achieve with a sharpener, sharpening stone or honing rod.

You can tell if your knife cuts well with an easy test using the knife and a sheet of paper. A sharp knife can easily and cleanly cut through a sheet of paper. On the other hand, a knife that needs sharpening will struggle and its cutting will be rough.

It is also recommended to sharpen your knives with a professional occasionally, to fix any possible damage to the blade's edge and to maintain sharpness.

    For this money, I expected it to cut much better than a €1.5 knife, it cuts better but not as much as I expected.

    This review is about type: Cleaver, dimension: 16 cm

    I use it amateurly for roasted lamb and pork! I had bought 2 cheaper ones in the past and no matter what I cut, their tip would dull! This brand, Wusthof, is obviously much better, its tip doesn't dull easily and with one stroke, you can easily cut 4-5 whole roasted lamb or pork. It is heavy and has a convenient handle with a tooth-like grip at the back to hold it better and prevent it from slipping forward. It is a bit pricey, I believe it was purchased for €78.90, but I think it's worth it because you can do your job effortlessly, without struggling like with the others I had, with every cut and stroke! With this, you forget about sharpening! As a tool, it has a good and thick blade, it is easily maneuverable and doesn't dull easily for an expensive price, but you get what you pay for

    Excellent (for its value) knife from the best (in my opinion) company in the world.
    Attention, if you are not used to it, because it cuts dangerously.

    I was swayed by the reviews, another knife of the Victorinox brand at half the price cuts perfectly
