I had previously purchased a Henckels knife (made for Target) that ended up only having dimples on one side- and of course, the smooth edge, the one hidden by the packaging, ended up being the side where the cut pieces end up when using the knife right-handed, making dimples useless all together! -at least as far as I'm concerned. He then purchased me a beautiful bright green Tomodachi, which has been fine for veggies, but can't be used for frozen items, and I find it much easier to prep meats for stir fry when they still have ice crystals, in order to have better control. It also did not keep as sharp an edge as I would like- kind of nicked here and there over time.
I think I have finally convinced Hubby Dearest that investing in a quality knife the first time is actually more cost effective in the long run- especially since I am still happily using a couple of the Wusthof and Henckles Zwillingswerk knives my mother purchased in Germany when my dad was stationed there in the late '60s. (I had to arm wrestle my older brother over who got which ones... I let him have the pizza dough roller he used in his teens, so I could get the chef's knife! heh, heh, heh!)
Back to this knife- It is proving to be wonderful! I have only come across a couple of huge sweet potatoes that the blade was not long enough to get through lenghwise in one pass. The blade is extremely sharp! I've nicked my left thumbnail a time or two, but have thankfully avoided any slicing of fingertips thus far- (yes, I know, I should concentrate on my knife skills a bit more! Nothing like having the cat dash out of the kitchen whenever he hears me pull a blade out of the block to convince me of that... Oh come on, I've only dropped the paring knife a couple of times- give me a break!)
I wish this had been the first Santoku knife I ever purchased. (Does Goodwill accept donations of large knives? I have at least one I need to ditch!)
Flash forward to 2021 and I was washing the knife and due to my clumsiness it flew out of my hand and hit the tile floor in the kitchen on the handle end. The handle shattered and a chunk broke off.
I wrote to Wusthof (online) about whether it might possibly be repaired, and instead they had me mail it to them and after evaluating it, despite the issue being nothing to do with their knife, they simply replaced it by notifying me I had a credit on their site (a credit that covered the knife and the shipping and tax all, except for 86 cents).
So after nine years of use, and still my favorite knife, for 86 cents they quickly sent me a new one via the USPS.
In 2012 these knives in the Classic range had a red sticker on the handle with the W logo on the sticker. You peeled it off.
Now, 2021, the red W logo is part of the handle itself, not a square, but a red circle with a W in it.
In all other ways it's exactly the same and still fantastically sharp.
I've been using the Classic Wusthof knives since 1987 and they're still going. I can't imagine with quality and service like this ever being unhappy with them.
You DO want to keep them out of the dishwasher, but they're so easy to wash with the swipe of a soapy sponge and then simply dry and put back in the block.
Highly, highly recommended, with service that FAR exceeded my expectations when I was responsible for damaging one (which is hard to do, believe me).
Because this 7" has handled everything I needed it to do and it's a pleasure to hold and cut with. Of course I watched several different chefs on YouTube discuss and demonstrate proper technique and etiquette for using a chef's knife so that I wouldn't cut my fingers off. Trust me, you should too because this blade is sharp - I mean battle sharp. I would take it into battle against an armored knight, it's that sharp. My former chef's knife was a Chicago Cutlery and there is no comparison - Wustoff blows it off the map.
I also bought the Wustoff knife sharpener as well and it does a splendid job of keeping the blade sharp. My kids have had a discussion over who wants it when dad passes on it's that good of a knife. So treat yourself to a GOOD chef's knife and try this one. You'll thank yourself for doing so. I promise. :)
