Inspired by the Italian spirit of “la dolce vita,” the Amici knife series reminds us to cherish simple things, like creating daily meals to nourish ourselves and those around us. Combining the sun-drenched character of Mediterranean olive wood with the timeless precision of a WÜSTHOF blade, consider the Amici Chef’s Knife your all-purpose, go-to kitchen tool for preparing food that makes everyday moments special. Amici is our way of doing simple best.

Forged from a single piece of WÜSTHOF steel, the precision-sharpened, 8-inch blade makes this knife agile, intuitive, and easy to handle. A full bolster – the thicker area between the blade and the handle on forged knives – further protects your fingers during slicing and dicing. The custom-grained Calabrian olive wood handle is naturally water-resistant and antibacterial, and its organic shape fits comfortably in hands of any size.

When you use a WÜSTHOF knife, you can be sure that you are holding one of world’s best kitchen tools in your hand.

We have been developing and manufacturing our products in Solingen, Germany, the “City of Blades,” since 1814 – loyalty that pays off in the quality and reliability of our family business, knife by knife.

High quality WÜSTHOF steel: Our special stainless steel is durable, corrosion resistant, easy to sharpen, and reduces wear on the blade. Ideal for chef’s knives.

Impressive sharpness: For over 200 years, we’ve been refining the perfect edge and developing special techniques that keep our blades sharper for longer. Ideal for precise movements.
