Product Description

This 3-piece Wusthof Classic knife prep set contains the knives you use everyday. The 3-1/2-inch parer is for all your peeling a fine slicing. The 4-1/5-inch multiprep knife is wonderful for small prep jobs. The bigger handle and blade is a must-have for the cook that likes smaller knives. The set is completed with the come-apart shears. These handy shears cut everything from meat to cardboard and come apart for easy cleaning.
Wusthof Classic knives are made in Solingen, Germany--"The Cutlery Capital of the World". The Wusthof factory history goes back as far as 1814 when the company was listed with the Duchy of Berg. To this day, the company remains family owned.
A considerable number of separate manufacturing steps are required to complete each precision forged knife. Each step is performed to exacting standards by skilled German workers aided by the most modern, computer guided equipment. It is this balance of German technology and old-world hand-craftsmanship that is the secret of how each Wusthof knife is created. Known the internationally for it's unique and uncompromising quality, Wusthof uses a special blend of German steel through out the whole length of the knife. The ingredients of this steel are proudly etched on each blade. Wusthof not only uses the best materials to make a fine knife, but it is also crucial that each blade is precisely tempered. This tempering allows the knife to hold its edge for an extremely long time, yet still be able to be maintained in your home kitchen with out the need to be sent away for maintenance. Our unique compound angle is not seen in many knives. This angle tapers from the spine of the knife to the edge to allow for a sturdy, yet extremely sharp edge while it also tapers from the bolster to the tip to give the knife strength as well as flexibility.

Very happy with this set. Purchased back in September, and all the edges are still sharp. In fact, be careful when you first use the knives, I cut myself the first time (not used to sharp knives!!) Especially like that the scissors come apart, makes cleaning them so much easier. Highly recommend. I use both knives daily; or at least on the days that I cook!

Reviewer: Michael G. Lustig, NJ USA
Wustof Classic is the high-end of their line of knives. They are made in Soligen Germany from a single piece of cast steel that is finely finished. The same factory produces F. Dick knives that are virtually identical. I've been using Wustof Classic and F. Dick knives for over 15 years. I hand wash them and sharpen them with a ChefsChoice 2000 (rarely) or a smooth steel. I got these for the Gold Box special price of $[...] and that is an incredible bargain. I also own the Wustof Classic hollow ground steak knives which cost about $[...] each (not here). Is this the only knife I would buy if I had to choose? No, I would buy a Shun Ken Onion 8" chefs knife if I could only have one knife. That said; these are really good knives that last for years if cared for properly.

Reviewer: Mike P.,
Great for preparing pretty much anything. The knives are super sharp and make chopping things like onions and stuff a breeze. My wife loves them.
user comment Wusthof Classic 3 Piece Knife Prep Set Great knifes
 
Review Date: October 15, 2008
Reviewer: z36,
Wusthof knifes are the best knifes made as far as I can tell. Tried others but nothing beats Wusthof. Well balanced and razor sharp. I bought 2 Wusthof Gourmet knifes trying to save some money but wished I would have just bought the Wusthof Classic instead. As far as I can tell it was a waste of money buying the Gourmet knifes.

The Gourmet knifes are made of stamped steel not forged from a single blank of high carbon steel. The Wusthof Classic just holds an edge better and longer. So don't be cheap and breakdown and spend the extra money it will be worth it in the long run.

My wife tells me I'm a knife snob now. I don't care and we now have 12 Wusthof Classic knifes. I told my wife those Wusthof Gourmet knifes have got to go but she tells me no and just calls me a knife snob. One day there going to come up missing. ;)

I ordered this item as a gift. It came promptly and I'm very happy with the 3 items. Two knives and a pair of kitchen shears (I own all of these and use them frequently). I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to try out this brand of knives, or to add to their collection.
