Editorial Reviews and Product Descriptions

Product Description

Finely crafted, razor-sharp knives are an investment worth making. Especially when they're hand-forged in Germany by Wusthof's skilled craftsmen. Made of quality high-carbon stainless steel, this five-inch, serrated utility knife is perfect for cleaning and cutting larger fruits and vegetables, or scoring meats and pastries. Lifetime warranty.
Amazon.com Review

The straight, serrated blade of this 5-inch knife cuts perfectly through sausages, tomatoes, and fruit skins. Cooks can find many other uses for this handy knife; for example, it works beautifully as a bar companion, cutting citrus wedges effortlessly. Because of its portability, it's also a great tool to pack for picnics.

Part of the Classic series, this knife represents two centuries of unexcelled Wüsthof craftsmanship. Like other cutlery in the series, it's hand-forged from a single piece of stainless steel for maximum strength; the hand-polished blade is exactingly calibrated to be hard enough to resist dulling yet soft enough to take a keen edge when it's honed or sharpened. Dishwasher-safe and with a traditionally shaped, ergonomically designed handle that is triple-riveted for durability, this knife brings a guaranteed lifetime of low-maintenance cutting to its owners. --Arthur Boehm

This knife is awesome. It is major sharp and does a number on almost anything from cheese, tomatoes, bread (sandwiches), etc. I love it. You can't beat the Wusthof quality!

I own an 8-inch Wusthof Classic Chef's knife and a 6-inch Cook's knife, but I reach for this smaller, lightweight, serrated knife for many tasks. It's easier to wash, and I do wash it by hand and never put it in the dishwasher. It's terrific for cutting citrus fruit. The label does call it a sausage knife, so the reviewer who mentioned that is correct. I haven't tried it yet on sausage, but I'm sure it will work great for sausage, tomatoes, and narrow bread loaves. I even use it to dice onions. I have no regrets about adding this knife to my collection.

This is one of my kitchen workhorses. Gets almost as much use as my chef's knife and paring knife. I use this for tomatoes, sandwiches, rolls, bagels, slicing oranges, etc. Performs perfectly. It's very sharp and well made. You really only need 3 to 5 knives, even for the most well-equiped kitchen, and in my kitchen this is one of my 5.
