Product Description
Handsome and precise, these razor-sharp Steak Knives by Wusthof Classic easily cut the thickest steaks and chops. Made of the highest quality high-carbon stainless steel to hold a sharp edge and resist stains and rust, every Wusthof knife is hand-forged in 38 manufacturing steps by skilled craftsmen in Solingen, Germany. Full tangs provide maximum safety and perfect balance, and the durable riveted handles are dishwasher-safe. Set of 6.
Amazon.com Review
The handsome knives in this six-piece set boast scimitarlike blades; their distinct upward curves work exactly like those of a butcher's knife to help slice meat with ease and precision. Because they slice so efficiently, you may find yourself using these knives for other cutting tasks, such as slicing onions or trimming raw beef.p Part of the Classic series, this knife represents two centuries of unexcelled Wuesthof craftsmanship. Like other cutlery in the series, it's hand-forged from a single piece of stainless steel for maximum strength; the hand-polished blade is exactingly calibrated to be hard enough to resist dulling yet soft enough to take a keen edge when it's honed or sharpened. Dishwasher-safe and with a traditionally shaped, ergonomically designed handle that is triple-riveted for durability, this knife brings a guaranteed lifetime of low-maintenance cutting to its owners. i--Arthur Boehm/I

you will laugh at other knives November 26, 2008
A. Dunn (athens, ga)
all i can say is wusthof knives are amazing. i received them as a wedding gift even though they weren't on my registry and i'm so glad i did. i had chicago cutlerly on my registry and i don't use them at all now. the wusthof knives are so safe because you're never struggling to cut something. i put them through the dishwasher and they never come out tarnished and rusty like the chicago cutlerly does. i love them and want to give them as gifts now.
Genuine Wusthof quality knives July 2, 2008

These Classic Wusthof knives are precision manufactured with full bolsters and triple rivets on their handles to their tangs. The high quality of their construction is evident for anyone who knows excellent knives. These knives are forged, not stamped. The blades are plain edge and sharp. No serrated teeth are necessary. Someone can certainly buy cheaper steak knives elsewhere. But for those who want the very best Solingen stainless steel knives, then these set of steak knives are for you. br / br /You can also buy these as a set of four if six are too many.

I love all the Wusthof knives we have. Before we got married, we had a functional set and a really crappy set from lord knows where. We had no idea just how good knives could be. We were blown away when we tried these for the first time. We had these since July and haven't had to sharpen them yet (I was sharpening my last set all the time). When were were looking into the steak knives, we really couldn't see the difference between the expensive version and the cheaper ones. We went on faith that the expensive ones really were better. We got them, and tried them on some filets. Huge difference from our old set. Then I went to visit my father and found he had the cheaper Wusthof steak knives. They too were better than the crappy ones we previously had, but there is a significant difference in quality and ability to cut between the two Wusthof choices. If you have the money, go for the more expensive set. You won't regret it.

These are damn sharp knives, comfortable to hold, and of course they cut a ribeye like the proverbial butter. Heck, they cut an overcooked, leathery skirt steak the same way! br / br /These were a follow-on to the complete Wusthof knife set. I'd recommend Wusthof highly to any halfway serious chefs out there. This is serious German steel at a reasonable price.
 After a few years, I'm not sure... January 4, 2007

We received these as wedding gifts in mid-2003. We have several other Wusthof Classic knives purchased as open stock. The steak knives we received as a 6-piece set. We treat these knives better than we treat our friends. They get touched up by the steel, they don't soak, they are hand-washed and they go in the block when not in use. However, last night an approximately 1 cubic centimeter chunk of the handle nearest the blade fell into my wife's dinner. She was shocked, as was I. Upon closer inspection, another steak knife from the set was about to suffer the same fate. I think it must have been a bad production run given all our other knives, received at the same time (and which get used about the same amount) all look fine. I sent them back yesterday so I'm interested to see how well they honor their warranty. br / br /Update 1/23/07: Received replacement knives today. Putting them back into the block was bittersweet because I noticed another one of the original set is developing a crack, this time at the bottom. Not sure what the issue is... br / br /Main point: They appear to honor their warranty.
