Wusthof Classic Knife Block

Wusthof’s PEtec (Precision Edge Technology) uses lasers to measure each blade before sharpening it to a precise angle. This ensures that every knife in the set arrives with a consistent, razor-sharp edge that lasts longer and requires less frequent honing than standard factory-sharpened blades.

While the high-carbon stainless steel is durable, we strongly recommend hand-washing these knives with warm water and mild soap. Dishwashers can dull the blades over time and the harsh detergents may damage the handle material, so hand-washing is the best way to maintain their performance.

Yes, the included acacia wood block features 17 slots, even though the set contains 15 pieces. This gives you two extra spots to store your favorite specialty knives or future additions to your collection.

The synthetic handles are triple-riveted for durability and designed to be seamless, which prevents food particles from getting trapped. They offer a more hygienic, low-maintenance alternative to wood handles while still providing a secure, comfortable grip that won't warp or crack over time.

This set is an investment, but it is excellent for any skill level. Because the knives are forged for precision and balance, they actually make learning proper cutting techniques easier and safer than using lower-quality, unbalanced cutlery.
