Consider the chef's knife the hero of your kitchen — it's an all-rounder in food preparation that supports the widest variety of kitchen tasks. A great chef's knife makes slicing and dicing a pleasure, which is one of the many reasons it is often the most used, most important kitchen tool for home cooks and professional chefs. Laser-stamped from a single piece of high-carbon, stain-resistant WÜSTHOF steel, the uniquely lightweight WÜSTHOF Gourmet 8" Chef's Knife is the ideal addition to any kitchen.
With a wonderful price-to-performance ratio, non-forged Gourmet knives carve a special place in the WÃœSTHOF repertoire when it comes to their intuitive and lightweight handling.
Every non-forged knife in the Gourmet series showcases typical WÃœSTHOF high quality, with each blade laser-cut and toughened to a high degree of hardness at 56 Rockwell. The multi-step production process results in a nimble, lighter-weight version of its forged counterpart, making Gourmet knives an ideal entry point for new and seasoned cooks alike.
Gourmet knives feature a new, comfortable, and highly durable handle design made from a synthetic material called Polyoxymethylene (POM), which has a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discoloration.
