Product info

A high quality bread knife is a great asset to any kitchen, especially one that has a precision double serrated edge, ensuring a smooth cut with no ripping or tearing of the loaf. Each Wusthof Classic knife is drop forged from a single piece of steel for maximum strength, balance and heft.

  • Longer lasting performance and sharpness due to the double serrated edge
  • Less pressure is required for smooth, neat cutting
  • Specialised high carbon, stain resistant alloy ensures that the cutting edge of the knife is razor sharp and easy to resharpen
  • Computer controlled grinding and polishing of the blade means there is perfect tapering from bolster to tip
  • Synthetic, ergonomic handle which is triple riveted for durability yet still retains its stylish looks and smoothness
  • Perfectly weighted full bolster gives the knife its heft and protects your fingers too

All knife measurements are for the blade only, not the handle.

Care instructions

Dishwasher Instructions

Although some Wüsthof products are dishwasher safe, we do not recommend that your knives and scissors be put in the dishwasher. Blades can knock together, damaging them, and if not washed soon after use, corrosive food particles can damage the blade. Rather wash your knives as soon as possible after each use with warm water and a little detergent, rinse carefully and dry with a towel.

Knife Sharpening

All knives require regular sharpening. Wüsthof manufactures sharpening options that suit all of their knives, including whetstones, honing steels and pull-through sharpeners. See the sharpening range here.

Knife Storage

Wüsthof has a range of storage options to keep your knives safe: magnets, blocks, in-drawer organisers, and knife rolls. See the storage range here.

Warranty

Wüsthof knives have a 10-year warranty and will be repaired or replaced after thorough inspection if there are any defects in workmanship or materials. This warranty assumes proper care, maintenance and intended use of the knives.

I may be biased towards Wüsthof knives because they are the only knives I buy, but this knife is a dream to use. My bread knife was the last one I’ve replaced and I can’t believe I’ve waited this long! It slides through the bread without much effort and feels extremely comfortable in your hand! Brilliance!

From the first slice through my sourdough bread, this knife angles by itself, mid-slice, to the left giving you skewed slices of bread or cake with every slice. At first, we thought the blade was bent, so I replaced it with another — same story.

There is a sticker on the box saying "knife of the year"... more like "worst knife of the year". It's definitely very sharp, I will give Read more

This is a great knife. At 23cm it is nicely long, but comfortable. The blade is stiff (really good for robust bread like the rye loaves I bake) and the edge is excellent. The finish on the handle is all I could want, and the only reason it gets four stars is that that is proper for a top quality knife that is going to be used and appreciated, and not displayed on a rack!

I would recommend this product to a friend.
