WÜSTHOF Classic 16cm Chef’s Knife

WÜSTHOF Classic 16cm Chef’s Knife

No cook or kitchen should be without a really good chef’s knife and Wusthof makes some of the very best. Think of this kind of knife as a manual food processor capable of all types of cutting, chopping, slicing and dicing. The depth of the knife and its thick strong back give it the power and strength to cut through the toughest root vegetables with ease. The curved shape of the blade lets you rock the knife down and through tough ingredients to make cutting chopping and slicing a straightforward matter. The knife tapers to a slender point which is delicate and precise enough to perform the finest slicing and dicing. 

Choose the most appropriate size for your hands and the kind food preparation that you do. We suggest that you go for the longest blade that you are comfortable with, remember this is the knife that you will use to do things like cutting whole cabbages in half. The 16cm blade is a very good size for vegetable preparation and is an ideal size for dicing meat and vegetables or cutting herbs. You may need a longer blade for cutting whole pumpkins, cabbages and Swedes. The medium-sized handle and contoured bolster gives a great grip, particularly for those with smaller hands.
