We’ll help you cut through the confusion!

Has your endless search for the right chef's knife become dull?


This Chef’s knife from the Wüsthof Classic series is different from other Chef’s knives because the blade is extra wide. This adds weight to the knife, which enables you to do most of the cutting without exercising a lot of pressure on the knife.   
  

Other uses of the knife involve flattening, shaping and scooping of meat, fish, fruit and vegetables.

Fijn mes, groot genoeg, sterk, breed inzetbaar, prima te hanteren !


20 jaar geleden een 16 cm kopksmes aangeschaft, bijna het enige mes wat ik gebruikte, nu een 16 cm extra breed,,, fantastisch gereedschap! De nieuwe vormgeving is niet alleen een streling voor het oog maar is nog ergonomischer, balans precies onder de wijsvinger, het ultieme all-purpose mes. De kwaliteit van Wusthofmessen is bijna niet te overtreffen. De 20 cm versie is de keus voor het 'zware werk'.

encore mieux que ce que j'attendais! qualité superbe! livraison très rapide

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

Measured from the tip of the blade to the back of the handle

Total length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

dishwasher_safe

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/en/ct/pocket-knives-difference-plain-edge-serrated.htm)?

Type of edge

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).

Way of sharpening

value_total_sharpening_angle

This is the total sharpening angle, so the sharpening angles of both sides of the blade combined. For a knife with a one-sided grind this equals a single sharpening angle.

For the number of knives in the knife sets we stick to the information supplied by the manufacturer. Some brands consider the block to be part of the set, others don't.
