Wusthof Classic Two Piece Mini Asian Knife Set 3" Flat Cut Paring 5" Santoku HE

Wusthof Classic Two Piece Mini Asian Knife Set 8942

Set Includes 3" Flat Cut Paring Knife & 5" Santoku Hollow Edge Knife

Wusthof's best-selling collection for generations, Classic full-tang knives are precision-forged from a single piece of an exclusive high-carbon stain-free steel. Classic knives feature a new handle design made of highly durable synthetic material – Polyoxymethylene (POM) – which has a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discoloration.

The Classic 3" Flat Cut Paring Knife tapers to a point at the tip and is easy to handle, making it the perfect knife to trim and slice and peel small produce such as garlic cloves and herbs. The flat edge provides more contact with the cutting board and precise control.

The Classic 5" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is designed with a thinner blade than the traditional chef’s knife, at a 10° cutting edge, and gradually curves up at the very end providing a straighter edge. The hollow edge contains evenly spaced vertical indentations that create small air pockets between the blade and the food. These small air pockets gently push food off the blade and reduce the friction and drag when slicing. 

Features:

Precision-forged from a single blank of high carbon stain-free steel

Hollow-edge that creates air pockets along the side of the blade that allows for food to easily fall away

Full tang that is triple riveted to the handle for precise control

Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) yields a blade that is 20% sharper with twice the edge retention

Tempered to 58 Rockwell

Full bolster and finger guard

Comfortable and highly-durable polyoxymethylene (POM) handle with a traditional look and feel, stickered with our red Trident logo
