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.

Very nice product. Looks great

"Very nice product. Looks great in my kitchen"

— Dennis D. (5/5)

Love Love Love This Block!

"I originally bought my first set of professional Wusthof Classic knife set in the early 1980s. I have added more Classic pieces over the years and with proper usage, cleaning,storage and professional sharpening, all are as good as new today! The problem I was facing was I did not have room for all the knives in the original block and was either doubling up the slots or keeping the overflow in a drawer. This because too much of a hassle going to different locations for a given knife or trying to double up. after use. Obviously it was time to buy a new block. I started my seach but to my disappoint, it appeared that the new larger Wusthof knife blocks now have a glued on logo plate that had terrible reviews across multiple platforms and really looks cheesy. Its amazing to me that the Wusthof knives are getting poor reviews just becuase of these glued on logos. My original block had a embossed "burnt" in logo and that was what I wanted. None to be found on the major shopping sites so went to the Wusthof site. To my sheer delight, they had a 17-piece knife block that had a embossed "burnt" in logo. As I couldn't find this anywhere else, I was concerned maybe the picture was in error and this block would also have the glued logo piece. Called Wusthof customer service and the rep said he would confirm but may take a day or two. He called back and confirmed the picture was accurate and this block has the embossed "burnt" in logo. Needless to say, I placed an immediate order! I now have all my Classic knives, other than the cleaver and steak knives that I keep in their own wooden box, in one location on my countertop with easy access! This simple block replacment has made food preparation so much easier! Love, Love Love this block!"

Classic and beautiful in any kitchen

"This is the second one I have purchased over the years. It's so well made and the wood quality is excellent."

Perfect Size & Quality Craftsmanship

"The size of this 17 Slot Block is perfect for your 10 favorite knives, 6 steak knives and steel. It looks impressive on your kitchen counter and great design. We have a drawer block for the rest of our Wusthof knives. I couldn't be happier with the Wusthof hardwood block we have had for 20+ years and it gets better looking the older it gets. I recommend it highly !!!"
