Knife Characteristics
The contemporary all-stainless-steel Culinar series was introduced in 1999 and combines elegance with performance. The hand-forged and hand-honed blades are made from optimum quantities of high-carbon steel and a stain-resistant alloy, resulting in longer edge retention and easier resharpening. A computer-controlled grinding and polishing procedure ensures perfect tapering from bolster to tip for precision slicing. The weighted bolster gives the handle its heft and is considered a signature feature of Wüsthof knives. The tang in Culinar knives extends throughout the 18/10 satin-finish stainless-steel handles and is seamlessly encased so the handle appears as a single piece of metal.
The Blade Shape:
The cook’s knife’s primary duty is chopping and dicing. The curved edge, (the belly of the knife) is designed from the tip to the heel to facilitate that task by rolling smoothly.
The Edge:
The "Business End” of every Wüsthof knife. Skillfully honed by hand. It's incredibly sharp. Laser tested to perfection, long-lasting and easily resharpened.
The Blade:
Computer controlled grinding and polishing procedures result in precise tapering from bolster to tip and from back to edge.
The Steel:
The Wüsthof steel formula, etched on every blade, has evolved over years as the optimum high carbon/stain resistant alloy for edge retention and resharpening.
The Bolster/Finger Guard:
Wüsthof's signature feature accounts for the heft; the solid, balanced feel acclaimed by professional chefs throughout the world. They insist on it...shouldn't you?
The Handle/Tang Assembly:
Sculpted handles of the finest 18/10 stainless steel. Proper balance in the CULINAR collection is assured by a full extension of the tang through the length of the handle. Table-top elegance with the high-performance "heart" of a Wusthof knife.
