Types of Blades The Right Blade for Every Purpose The edge is the business end of a knife. It is skillfully honed by hand and incredibly sharp. For different cutting tasks different blade shapes and edges are recommended. The Differences: Straight-edge blade: The straight edge allows a smooth and clean cut. When carving no fibres are torn out of the meat. This edge can be used for firm and soft food like meat, vegetables and fruit. Serrated-edge blade: The wavy or serrated edge allows an easy cut through crusty food like a traditional roast and crispy bread. Hollow-edge blade: When cutting an air pocket is created between the hollow edge and the slice. This prevents the food from sticking to the blade and allows for finer slices. Laser technology cuts steel into precise shapes. View larger. Modern Manufacturing With modern manufacturing techniques, Wusthof is using laser cutting to craft its stamped knives. Laser cutting is a technology that uses a laser to cut steel in precise shapes. Laser cutting works by directing the output of a high-power laser, by computer, at the steel being cut. The material then burns away, leaving an edge with a high-quality surface finish. The remaining processes are similar to the manufacturing of forged knives. A Wusthof Gourmet stamped knife is great for newer cooks or for use in a second home. These value priced knives are quite sharp. Thanks to their high-carbon stainless steel, their sharp edge is long lasting. Triple riveted handles are extremely durable. Lifetime warranty from Wusthof with normal use and proper care.
