Product detailed description

The Chef's Edition paring / utility knife is a small, lightweight and versatile knife with a fine blade. Thanks to the shape of its blade, it is ideal for skewering and preparing meat. It works equally well for peeling, slicing, cleaning or decorating fruits and vegetables.

The Chef's Edition chef's knife is a sturdy, heavy-duty knife with a wide blade with a fine yet durable edge. The knife's spine and blade are slightly curved and taper to a point. Thanks to this, the chef's knife can be used in a truly versatile way, for cleaning and cutting vegetables, meat or chopping chops. It is also suitable for cradling herbs, vegetables or nuts. The tip of the knife remains firmly on the work surface and the blade moves up and down. The knife also has one side wider for even filleting of the fish.

The Chef's Edition meat knife is a slim knife with a sturdy, 20 cm long blade and a fine edge. Excellent for slicing and cutting raw or roasted meat, the fibres of which are easily cut through. It can also be used to cut meat into very small cubes or thin strips. When carving the roast, it ensures that no juices leak out of the meat.

Technologies and materials used

For the production of the knives, special high-quality knife steel was used, which is fine-grained, hard and less susceptible to corrosion. In addition, thanks to the flat cut, it is highly resistant to damage or breakage while maintaining excellent cutting performance. Its properties are further enhanced for knife making by forging, which homogenises the steel and densifies its structure.

Special Performance Cut technology combines the advantages of traditional forging with the benefits of modern manufacturing processes. The result is a blade of the highest quality. Precise sharpening at a constant angle is also crucial for excellent knife quality. It is the flat cut that makes the knives so sharp.

The bolster is integrated as part of the blade from a single piece of steel. Ensures correct weight distribution and ensures precise knife control. The fittings on the guard smoothly transition to the top of the ricasso for an even more comfortable grip.

The ergonomic handle is made of high-quality Cromargan® stainless steel, which contains 72% steel, 18% chromium and 10% nickel. It is a durable, stainless steel material, resistant to food acids. Cromargan® is beautifully glossy and easy to clean.

WMF knife maintenance

Chef's Edition knives are not dishwasher safe. For such high-quality knives, only hand washing under running water is recommended, which is gentler on the knives and also much faster.

WMF knife sharpening

Every knife should be sharpened from time to time, but ideally should be sharpened with a sharpener after each use. For sharpening the knives of the Chef's Edition series, we recommend a whetstone (must be sharpened at an angle of 13°) or WMF sharpeners.
