Unique knives! The blades are so exquisite that you would think they come straight from an old Damascus forge, and so strong that they stay sharp for a very long time. Brilliant technology has made all this possible: by combining different steels, a single blade steel has been created with 120 layers, made using traditional forging methods. WMF Damasteel series knives are exceptionally strong and can be used at a very sharp angle. The result: outstanding, long-lasting sharpness. The forged bolster ensures perfect balance between the blade and the ergonomically shaped handle made of stainless steel. The distinctive pattern of the blade is the result of processing various raw materials - making the series feel luxurious. This popular series includes a utility knife, Chef's knife, carving knife, and Santoku knife. The Chef's knife is an all-purpose knife: its wide, strong blade glides smoothly through fish and meat, and also chops even the toughest vegetables. It's easy to chop herbs and nuts with the Chef's knife: just place the knife on the table and rock the blade back and forth. And that's not all, the wide side of the knife can be used to tenderize meat, making it evenly flat, for example when making Wiener schnitzel. No wonder this highly versatile knife is a kitchen essential. WMF offers many different models with different blade lengths (13, 15, and 20 cm), each with its own unique features.
