Product Description
Wusthof Gourmet 14-Piece Knife Block Set: Kitchen & Dining. The set consists of a 17-slot oak block and 13 knives and utensils as follows: 3-inch paring; 4-1/2-inch utility; 7-inch santoku; 7-inch cook's; 8-inch bread; 6 4-1/2-inch steak; shears; 9-inch sharpening steel. Made in Solingen, Germany, the home-base of Wüsthof since 1814, knives in the moderately priced Gourmet series make excellent gifts for any home cooking enthusiast. Gourmet blades are precision-cut by laser from sheets of high-carbon, stain-resistant German steel, resulting in a slightly thinner profile and lighter weight than the company's revered forged steel blades. There is no bolster, but there is a full-tang. As with more expensive Wüsthof Classic knives, Gourmet handles are made of a triple-riveted, black composite material that is shaped to fit the hand comfortably and is emblazoned with the brand's red trident symbol. This 14-piece set meets a wide variety of chopping, slicing, and mincing needs. Each piece in the set is covered by a lifetime warranty and is dishwasher-safe (except for the wood block), though Wüsthof recommends washing and drying its cutlery by hand.
