    Frequently Bought Together

    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.

    Unrivaled performance: Our superbly balanced and ergonomically designed handles ensure that every knife fits perfectly in the hand. Ideal for you.

    WÜSTHOF stands for knives. For the moment when your knife glides effortlessly through your fresh ingredients.

    Other Knives
    Material Premium forged steel engineered for lasting strength and corrosion resistance. Often stamped or made from standard steel blends that may sacrifice durability or rust resistance.
    Sharpness 20% sharper than standard knives, thanks to laser-guided PEtec technology. Factory-sharpened blades that start strong but dull faster and lack precision honing.
    Craftsmanship Hand-finished in Solingen, Germany with 200+ years of expertise and precision in every detail. Mass-produced or partially outsourced craftsmanship that lacks the same heritage and consistency.
    Corrosion Resistance
 Exceptional rust resistance for a blade that stays beautiful for decades. Prone to staining or rust if not carefully maintained—especially with frequent kitchen use.
    Edge Retention Stays sharper twice as long as ordinary knives, reducing the need to re-sharpen. Edges wear faster over time, requiring more frequent sharpening and touch-ups.
    Limited Lifetime Warranty Limited lifetime warranty – a promise backed by generations of quality. Lifetime coverage may exist, but with less transparency and variable service depending on the brand.

    Questions? We Have Answers

    What sets WÜSTHOF knives apart from other brands?

    WÜSTHOF is one of the few brands permitted to use the label “Made in Solingen” on our knives rather than the less restricted “Made in Germany.” Solingen, Germany is the steel manufacturing capital of the world and, as such, needed to take precautionary measures against fraudulent products bearing the prestigious name, “Solingen.” In 1938, Solingen became the only city in the world whose name is a registered trademark. To bear the name Solingen, all key manufacturing stages must have been processed and finished within Solingen, and the product must meet strict quality standards. This means that even cutlery manufactured entirely within Solingen’s town boundary may not be entitled to bear the name Solingen if it does not meet these required quality standards.

    Some of our competitors use the label “Made in Germany,” which does not carry the same significance. We have the honor of labeling our products “Made in Solingen.”

    What is Precision Edge Technology (PEtec)

    WÜSTHOF’s proprietary state-of-the-art technology incorporates a computer-controlled method for putting the edge on forged knives. Using laser-guided precision, our knives are 20% sharper with twice the edge retention. All forged knives are manufactured using PEtec.

    What do the numbers printed on my blade mean?

    The number etched on your blade indicates the year it was made — just add “20” in front of it.

    In some cases, you might see a second number, which shows the blade length in centimeters.

    There is no item number printed on the blade.

    Examples:

    • “25” means the blade was made in 2025.

    • “22 / 20” means the blade was made in 2022 and is 20 cm long.

    What is the difference between forged and laser-cut stamped knives?

    Forged knives go through over 40 steps in our factory to create the top quality blades WÜSTHOF has to offer. Forged knives include a bolster, which helps to balance the knife. Laser-cut stamped blades go through 14 steps in our factory, and are more economically priced. They are lighter in weight, and do not have a bolster.

    What are the most important knives to start a set?

    The most important knife in any kitchen is the chef’s knife, and after that, it depends on your own personal preferences when cooking.

    How do I keep my knives sharp?

    WÜSTHOF knives can be honed and sharpened using a hand-held sharpener, an electric sharpener, a sharpening or honing steel, or a whetstone. We recommend using the same brand sharpener as your knife collection, to ensure that the material used is the correct hardness for the steel on your knives. Our sharpening angle for standard blades is 14˚ per side, and for Asian-style blades (Santokus, Nakiris) is 10˚ per side. We offer a variety of sharpening products with pre-set angles.

    Q&A

    Does this knife set come with sheaths for the knives?
    Our knives do not come with sheaths. We do sell two styles of blade guard. You can consider the slide-in guard or the magnetic guard, both of which can be found in our online store. For specific information about each style, please reach out to our Sales Support Team directly at 800.289.9878 or info@wusthof.com
    Do you replace knives that snap? I bought a set 3 years ago and one of the blades snapped in half.
    This is not the experience we want for any of our customers. Please reach out to our Sales Support Team directly at info@wusthof.com and we can assist you with a warranty claim. We're happy to make this process as easy and streamlined as possible. I'm sorry for any inconvenience.
