How Wusthof Knives are Made This knife's blade shape originates in Japan; the thin, wide blade is easily controlled and produces very fine and even cuts. It is a versatile vegetable cleaver for slicing, dicing, and chopping both soft and hard vegetables, as well as large vegetables and fruit. The granton edge creates pockets of air which prevent extra-thin or soft slices from sticking to the blade. The blade is forged from one piece of specially tempered high carbon steel to ensure outstanding strength. The precision forged blade, bolster, and tang are married to the incredibly durable Hostaform-C handle, triple-riveted to the fully-visible tang.Wüsthof knives offer a harmonious blend of precision cutting performance, integrity of materials, safety, and comfort. The knife is hot-drop forged by hand from a single blank of high carbon no-stain steel, a specially alloyed surgical steel consisting of exacting proportions of carbon, chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium. Perfect balance is assured by the full extension of the tang through the length of the handle.
