Chef's knife with plastic handle CLASSIC LINE : 18.7514.6030

with forged steel blade

This is the exotic model amongst the knives. Originally designed for preparing Japanese dishes, it has long since become a staple in international kitchens. A Santoku knife is best suited to preparing wok dishes and wafer-thin sushi. It easily cuts and chops meat, fish, vegetables and herbs and was designed solely for downward cutting, i.e. chopping not mincing. Besides being extremely sharp, the Santoku knife is characterised by its special shape: unlike European models, the blade is wider than the handle, allowing for more finger room when cutting. A Santoku knife is also often lighter than its comparably big European counterparts. For those who like to cook a lot, this Japanese knife is a valuable addition to any knife set. The Classic Line knife collection is perfect for people setting up their first home, offering a modern design, wide selection and good quality at an affordable price. Like all WMF kitchen knives, the knives in the Classic Line series are made from high-grade special blade steel and are thus extremely sharp. The high-quality plastic handles are embellished with stainless steel rivets and ensure a secure grip. Thanks to their seamless design, they are easy to clean and thus extremely hygienic. This collection is ideal for beginners, as it offers a wide range of knives to suit any purpose: vegetable, paring and preparing knives in various lengths, steak, larding, bread and decorating knives as well as a Santoku and a Chinese chef’s knife.
