Product Description
Wusthof Grand Prix II 2-Piece Hollow-Ground Asian Knife Set: Kitchen & Dining. Each Grand Prix II knife is precision forged of a single blank of high carbon stainless steel, skillfully honed by hand twice. A great gift idea for any cooking enthusiast, this two-piece Asian knife set consists of a 7-inch hollowed-edge Santoku knife and a 3-inch paring knife. Use the Santoku for a wide variety of cutting chores, from mincing and chopping to slicing and dicing. The knife's hollow-edge blade provides a row of oval-shaped grooves along its cutting edge, which increases efficiency, helping to prevent food from sticking. By trapping air during the cutting process, food is less likely to adhere and more likely to fall to the side. For enhanced convenience, its large blade surface can also be used to scoop and carry minced or cubed ingredients to waiting pans or bowls. The compact size, pointed tip, and straight, ultra-fine edge of the paring knife makes it the ideal tool for trimming fruits and vegetables, deveining peppers, and other handheld tasks. Overall, the cook's knife measures approximately 12 by 2 by 1/2 inches, and the paring knife measures approximately 7 by 1 by 1/2 inches. As part of the Wusthof Grand Prix II collection, each knife's blade, bolster, and tang come precision-forged from a single piece of specially tempered high-carbon steel to ensure outstanding strength and balance. Wusthof knives offer sharp, precisely tempered blades for safe, efficient use. Laser tested for accuracy, the unique, compound angle of the blade tapers from the spine of the knife to the edge to create a sturdy, yet extremely sharp cutting surface. Another thoughtful detail includes the hygienically seamless, full-tang, synthetic handles, which are ergonomically designed for a secure, comfortable grip.
