Wusthof Buyer's Guide

.

.

Wusthof was established in 1814, and has been family owned and operated ever since! Made in Solingen, Germany, the knife capital of the world. Throughout history, Wusthof has focused almost solely on the manufacturing of knives for professional chefs and home cooking enthusiasts. Many steps are required to complete each precision forged knife. Each step is performed to exacting standards by skilled workers, aided by the most modern, computer-guided equipment and robotics.

Each knife is precision-forged from a single blank of high carbon no-stain steel, with exacting proportions of carbon, chromiom, molybdenum, and vanadium.
