Wusthof Classic Wave, Black
From slicing red-ripe tomatoes or a crusty loaf of bread to chopping onions or even spreading mustard and may (with the broad tip), this ultra-convenient 6-inch Santoku sandwich knife makes a useful addition to any cutlery collection. The knife features a scalloped blade with an undulated reverse-serrated cutting edge, which cuts in a wave action for smooth, gentle slicing--no ripping and tearing like with a traditional serrated knife.Like all knives in Wusthof’s Classic series, the wavy-edge Santoku's blade comes precision forged from a single piece of precisely tempered, high-carbon, stain-resistant steel. This tempering allows the knife to hold its edge for an extremely long time. Even more, it comes with a unique compound angle 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.Traditional in look, Classic knives are seamlessly constructed with a visible full tang triple-riveted into an ergonomically-shaped synthetic handle. Though the knife is dishwasher-safe, Wusthof recommends hand-washing all fine cutlery. Made in Germany, the knife is fully guaranteed to be free of defects in materials and/or craftsmanship.
