Wusthof Classic 7" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife - 4183
Wüsthof Classic 7" Hollow-Ground Santoku Knife, Model 4183
Knife Characteristics
Wüsthof's Classic series of knives features a traditional styling that makes it the most popular of the Wüsthof lines. 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 fully visible tang on these knives is seamlessly encased in synthetic Hostaform-C handles, which are secured to the tang with three rivets.
The cooking enthusiasts best friend available in blade sizes to fit any skill and performance levels. Owning just one may not be enough! Compare sizes to find your favorite(s).

Special Features:
High quality – There are distinct visible differences between the Wüsthof knife collections. However, since each and every knife is precision forged from a single blank of high carbon/no stain steel, the "which is better?" question does not apply. Only the handle assemblies differ.
Precision forged, single piece construction – Provides maximum strength, safety, balance and heft. Precision forging means no stamping, no welding, no shortcuts. Just solid quality.
High-carbon, no-stain steel with molybdenum – The Wüsthof-Trident formula, proudly etched on each and every blade, has evolved over the years as the optimum high carbon/stain resistant alloy for edge retention and resharpening. Will not rust or stain.
What is Molybdenum? It takes a special kind of steel to allow Wüsthof-Trident to precision-grind its blades to such extremely fine tolerances. Think of molybdenum as the “egg” in Wüsthof’s steel batter. Acting as a bonding agent within the alloy, molybdenum gives steel flexibility without sacrificing its strength. The result: a less brittle steel that makes the Wüsthof-Trident knife an easier knife to sharpen and maintain over its lifetime.
Handle Construction - Hostaform-C is an extremely durable, impact-resistant polypropylene that is dishwasher-safe* and virtually indestructible. It is both moisture- and food acid-resistant. Completely buffed and polished by hand. The seamless fit between handle, bolster and full-tang is totally hygienic.
