Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Wusthof Classic 2-3/4-Inch Peeling Knife
Customer Review: Brilliantly crafted tool for fine detail work.
Summary: 5 Stars
Only a certain type of cook is going to need and use a bird beak paring knife. The one who likes to peel with a knife, rather than with a peeler. Try peeling a kiwi - the superiority of this knife is immediately obvious. Potatoes too - you can gouge out the eyes at the same time you slide off a peel. The nimble curve gets in nooks and crannies like no ordinary peeler can.
This shape also excels in a host of fine manipulations, from cutting the tops off of strawberries to intricate cuts for decorative garnishes. This little paring knife is nimble in ways that most others are not. Like most Wusthof Classic knives this one has excellent balance and a small, light, nimble feel. The quality of the steel is excellent (high carbon that holds an edge well, but sacrifices stainlessness for hardness - mine is a bit stained at the tip from lots of citrus work and I care not in the least). The curved blade is slightly challenging to sharpen - but I get it razor sharp twice a year with my Lansky sharpening stone system and then keep it razor sharp the rest of the time with my steel.
For the kind of cook who will use and enjoy the bird's beak shape - this is the ultimate weapon - the best of this shape in the world.
Description of Wusthof Classic 2-3/4-Inch Peeling Knife
Thanks to its blade size and precision, the black-handled 2.75-in. Paring Knife by Wusthof Classic is a superior tool for delicate tasks. Prized possessions of professional chefs, Wusthof knives are an invaluable asset of any kitchen. Every element of this renowned cutlery contributes to its precision and ease of use. In Solingen, Germany, each piece is hand-forged in 38 manufacturing steps by skilled craftsmen. The high-carbon stainless steel blades are hardened to maintain a sharp edge and full tangs provide perfect balance with riveted, high-impact composition handles. Wusthof's newest state of the art technology incorporates a new computer controlled method for putting the edge on Classic knives. This technology allows for an exacting edge from the tip of the knife down to the heel of the knife. With this newer precision, the knives are made sharper to 14 degrees per side for a total of 28 degrees. The knives are now sharper and this refinement increases the sharpness retention because exacting angles and edges last longer than edges sharpened by hand. The result is a knife that is 30% sharper and the ICP (Initial Cutting Performance) lasts twice as long..Block Chef Sets
