WÜSTHOF Gourmet Santoku Knife with synthetic polypropylene handles that resist fading, discoloration, heat and impact. Precisely laser-cut stamped knives offer superb quality and value

Love this knife, extremely sharp and a nice weight. It does the job for chopping and dicing vegetables.. Anonymous. Grass Valley, CA. Sun Mar 01 2026

The Classic 3.54" fully-serrated paring knife is the second most important knife to have in the kitchen. The small narrow blade tapers to a point at the tip and is easy to handle making it the perfect knife to trim and slice and peel small produce such as garlic cloves and herbs. The added serrated edge has saw-like teeth that enable the blade to slice cleanly through food with delicate textures such as bread or soft vegetables and fruit.

Great knife!. Susan. Sun May 26 2024

The Japanese vegetable knife: extremely versatile and suitable for tasks such as cutting, dicing or chopping. Its shape is reminiscent of a cleaver but should not be confused with it as a Nakiri is not suitable for rough tasks (such as splitting bones). The very sharp and finely ground blade is more designed to prep vegetables, herbs and fruit very quickly and finely. The dimpled edge of the knife (slight depressions in the blade that allow small pockets of air to form) prevents ingredients from sticking.

My chef friend told me to purchase these and they are great!. Jill S.. Tue Jul 21 2026

Henckels logo provides optimum durability.

The knife with a forked tip for tomatoes, cheese and fruit: the finely serrated edge cuts smoothly through firm top layers such as rinds, crusts or skin and is also suitable for cheese or many kinds of fruit. The forked tip is designed to pick up the small slices of the ingredients.

The Gourmet 11" hollow-edge salmon slicer is the ideal tool for preparing and carving fresh, cured, or roasted salmon. This hollow-edge salmon knife, with its extremely sharp, flexible blade, slides easily through all fish (especially steaky fish like salmon!) during slicing, allowing for even, wafer-thin pieces. The dimples near the edge of the blade create small air cushions during slicing that prevent any food from sticking to the blade.

I have not had the opportunity to use the knife yet, I have one just like it that i have used for years and wanted to have a back up knife. Our Salmon fishing is a late July trip and we fillet the fish along the River as we catch them.. Ron S.. Fri Dec 30 2022

Smaller than a chef's knife and larger than a paring knife, the gourmet 5" kitchen knife is the perfect blade for a myriad of tasks. Think of this handy utility knife as a slightly longer, just-as-versatile paring knife with an aptitude for chopping shallots, onions, herbs, tender vegetables, and smaller cuts of meat.

Love this. Alex. Sat Dec 07 2024

This knife, being just the small version of the 7" I reviewed, has a nice blade shape, makes cutting of things like stick pepperoni, of smoked sausage, so simple and easy. No effort at all. The texture on the handles add a very nice feel in the hand in addition to the comfort of the weight and balance. The blade is sharp from the start, and the guard fits wonderfully. I like the guard because it protects the edge from any damage in a drawer, on a counter, even on a magnetic knife rail where I keep mine.. Amy Aims. Suburb Of Metro Detroit, Michigan.
