Wusthof Classic 7" Chinese Chef's Knife The Wusthof Classic 7" Chinese Chef's Knife / Vegetable Cleaver is the Chinese equivalent of the go-to European cook's knife. This knife, which resembles a giant razor, easily splits vegetables with a single downward stroke. The thin, light blade slices, dices, minces and juliennes. The wide blade of this multi-tasker also functions as a scoop to transfer food from the cutting board to the pot.
