Wusthof Classic 6″ Cook’s Knife, Hollow Edge

WÜSTHOF’S best-selling collection for generations, CLASSIC full-tang knives are precision-forged from a single piece of exclusive high-carbon stainless steel. CLASSIC knives feature a new handle design made of highly durable synthetic material – Polyoxymethylene (POM) – which has a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discoloration. The CLASSIC 6″ Hollow Edge Cook’s Knife is the workhorse of the kitchen or the essential kitchen knife. The cook’s knife is an indispensable all-purpose kitchen knife that can be used for chopping, mincing, slicing, and dicing. Due to the weight and balance of the knife, it is also perfect for heavy-duty work such as cutting thicker vegetables and meats. The hollow edge is crafted with evenly spaced vertical indentations, which create small air pockets between the blade and the food. These small air pockets gently push food off the blade and reduce friction and drag. This knife allows cooks to effortlessly prep a wide array of fresh produce, including starchy vegetables like potatoes, which tend to stick to a knife’s blade.
