Designed in 1886, the Wüsthof's Classic series epitomizes quality and durability. Precision-forged knives feature hardened high-carbon steel blades with laser-controlled edges that are easy to sharpen. Ergonomic, triple-riveted white synthetic handles—more sanitary than wood—provide a comfortable grip and precise control. The gorgeously grained acacia wood block has a great countertop presence, with extra slots for new additions. An excellent housewarming, graduation or wedding gift, this seven-piece set includes a 3.5-inch paring knife, 6-inch utility knife, 8-inch chef knife, 9-inch double serrated bread knife, 8.5-inch stainless steel kitchen shears and 9-inch brushed stainless steel honing steel in a knife block.
