Wusthof Performer 7" Santoku, Hollow Edge

Wüsthof is the first knife manufacturer to offer black, fully forged, DLC-finished knives. The diamond-like carbon finish was developed to withstand the toughest conditions: the amorphous carbon layer, just a few micrometers thick, increases the surface hardness of the Wüsthof blades from 58 to a unique 104 Rockwell. This makes them resistant to acids, alkalis, extreme temperatures and general wear and tear – even scratches don't stand a chance. The dynamics of sharp knives are complemented by the slip-resistant Hexagon Power Grip. Chefs love these outstanding knives that sit perfectly in the hand and guarantee complete control, even under the most demanding working conditions. Wüsthof has been producing knives in Solingen – known as a ‘City of Blades’ – since 1814. Excellent quality, sustainable operations and innovative ideas guarantee that the production process is among the most advanced of its kind.

Product Features

• INNOVATION - WÜSTHOF Performer knife combines unique design with pure dynamics. This all-black, all-purpose knife from Solingen, Germany, is extremely robust and enduringly sharp – an excellent knife for perfect control
• SANTOKU KNIFE - Japan’s version of the European-style chef’s knife. Use it to cut meat, mince herbs, chop vegetables, or craft wafer-thin slices of fish. The wide, 7-inch blade is slimmer than a typical European chef’s knife. The extremely sharp, 20° angle of the cutting edge ensures uniquely frictionless knifework. The hollows along the blade’s edge allow small air pockets to form during slicing, minimizing sticking and maximizing efficiency. Perfectly balanced, the Santoku shows its strength in demanding tasks that require precision and versatility. Ultimate sharpness. Effortless glide. Inspired precision.

• HEXAGON GRIP - Hexagon Power Grip: the novel, ergonomic handle design with its non-slip, offset honeycomb structure guarantees extreme control, enabling a firm grip on the all-purpose knife (small kitchen knife) even under demanding working conditions
