Wusthof Classic

The Wusthof Classic range is undoubdetdly the most popular set in the Wusthof professional knife range.

Its fans range from the professional chef to the most enthusiastic of amatuers. One thing both sets of users have in common is that they expect their kitchen tools to perform.

The Wusthof Classic range seems to rise to every challenge. This is evidenced by the overwhelmingly positive feedback left by satisfied customers (see the feedback on the Wusthof Classic range).

These knives are  forged from a single piece of high carbon stainless steel and so the tang bolster and blade are one piece ensuring incredible strength.

But more than this, these knives are thinner than their contemporaries which makes them much lighter and leads to a delicate balance when in the hand. Thus an absolute joy to use.

The Wusthof Classic range covers a variety of knives and scissors which you can purchase as budget allows, one at a time,  or en mass in a block of 26 Wusthof Classic pieces.

One point to mention is that there has been some criticism of the fact that these knives are they should not be used in a dishwahers safe. Although they are dishwasher safe, DO NOT put any quality knives, that you want to use again, in a dishwasher. The high pressure water in a dishwasher can knock the contents about and  because of the fine edge on these knives they can easily pick up nicks. This will need a sharpener to put right!! You have been warned. This applies to any quality knife not just Wiusthof.

The two most innovative features of Global knives are their edge and the way they are balanced. The most important feature of any knife is its edge and the Global edge is truly its signature. The majority of the Global knives are sharpened or ground on both sides of the blade like western style knives. However their edges are ground straight to a point rather than beveled resulting in a dramatically sharper knife which stays sharper longer. The edge is so large and prominent that it is easily seen with the naked eye and extends a quarter inch or more up from the tip of the knife. To balance their knives Global uses a hollow handle which is then filled with just the right amount of sand to create the correct balance. Global uses this method rather than using a full tang and a bolster to balance their knives for two reasons. First it is a far more precise than using a tang and a bolster. Second Asian knives typically do not have bolsters since they only serve as a hindrance to cutting and sharpening.

• Blade made of high-tech molybdenum/vanadium stainless steel

Tramontina Professional Series Cutlery Set with Block 9-pc. Specifications
This set by Tramontina contains the five knives needed to cut everything from bread to fine herbs. There’s a 10-inch bread knife, an 8-inch chef’s knife, a 6-inch utility knife, an 8-inch slicer, and a 4-inch paring knife. Made in Brazil, and slightly lighter than a German-made professional knife, these knives still rate high for quality. Stain-free high-carbon steel is the industry standard, and each knife’s tang extends all the way through to the handle, which provides a greater heft and better balance than inferior 3/4- or 1/2-tang knives. The nylon handle feels comfortable, and the bolster, where the blade of the knife meets the handle, is solid and will keep fingers safe. The hardwood block keeps knives handy and protected, and there’s a sharpening steel to keep blades in line and a shears. It’s best, as with all good knives, that you stick to hand washing them. –Maria Dolan
