Product Description
Wusthof Silverpoint II 6-Piece Steak-Knife Set with Block: Kitchen & Dining. It is this balance of German technology and old world hand craftsmanship that is the secret of how each Wusthof knife is created. This six-piece set of steak knives by Wusthof cuts through meat with ease and looks elegant at any table setting. Even more, they come neatly stored in a wooden block for countertop convenience. Each knife is expertly crafted from high-carbon, no-stain steel in Solingen, Germany, the cutlery capital of the world. For higher precision and edge integrity, the blades are laser cut instead of stamped. Each Wusthof blade is precisely tempered to hold its edge for a great length of time, so external maintenance is rarely required. The knives' unique compound angles taper from the spines to the edges, allowing for sturdy, yet extremely sharp edges. They also taper from the bolsters to the tips to give the knives strength and flexibility. Each knife features a riveted handle with a contoured shape for comfort and control. Washing by hand is recommended for best care. From the Manufacturer Silverpoint II Series View larger.

No matter which kind of blade and handle shape you are thinking of--Wusthof has the right knife for all your needs. 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. Automate[6571] The Silverpoint II 6-pc. Steak Knife Set is a wonderful complement to a good steak. Typical stamped knives are punched out like a cookie cutter. Wusthof Silverpoint II knives are laser cut. This intricate manufacturing process is superior to others as it is more precise and leaves the knives with less distortion. The Silverpoint II knives use the same steel that is used in our other more expensive knives. Wusthof uses a special blend of German steel throughout the whole length of the knife. The ingredients of this steel are proudly etched on each blade. Wusthof not only uses the best materials to make a fine knife, but it is also crucial that each blade is precisely tempered. This tempering allows the knife to hold its edge for an extremely long time, yet can be maintained in your home kitchen without the need to be sent away for maintenance. Located in the cutlery capital of the world, Solingen Germany, the Wusthof factory history goes back as far as 1814 when the company was listed with the duchy of berg. To this day, the company remains family owned. Each step is performed to exacting standards by skilled German workers aided by the most modern, computer-guided equipment. Known the world-over for its unique and uncompromising quality, our unique compound angle is not seen in many knives.
