Product Info

The most versatile of all parers: for mincing shallots, onions and herbs as well as cleaning and cutting vegetables

Each Wusthof knife is drop forged from a single piece of chromium-molybdenum-vanadium steel for maximum strength, balance and heft. This specialised high-carbon, stain resistant alloy ensures that the cutting edge of the knife is razor sharp and also easy to resharpen. A computer controlled grinding and polishing of the blade also ensures there is perfect tapering from bolster to tip.

The full tang knife is beautifully sandwiched by a synthetic, ergonomic handle that's been triple riveted for durability yet still retains its stylish looks and smoothness. The 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 Info

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.

A perfect all rounder for preparing and slicing fruit and vegetables. Super sharp. It is a small knife which makes it very easy to hold and handle. I am chuffed with my new kitchen helper!

My favourite knife

Item reviewed: 12cm

Review by Nirvana J. on 26 August 2021

I purchased this in 2018 and it is still going strong. I hand wash instead of using a dishwasher. It's a really nice sharp knife with a good weight. It's also the right length for julienning carrots and cucumbers. I also have the 9cm utility but it is too short for certain tasks. My only gripe with these knives is that silly red sticker on the handle which starts to look scruffy after a while but Read more
