Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Wusthof Emeril Pro 4-1/2-Inch UtilityCustomer Review: Good alternative to Wustof Classic Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered the Emeril Pro 4-1/2" utility knife because it appears to be identical to the Classic, but at lower cost. It came in a box marked Classic Icon. It looks like the Classic except for a micarta handle. I also have an 8" Classic cook's knife. The Emeril knife is made of the same steel, has the same heft (I gave an ex-wife a Classic 4-1/2" utility knife a couple of Christmases ago). The only differences I can discern are a) the micarta handle is slightly rough where shaped, and b) the handle fit has a very small gap on one side that appears to be filled with epoxy.
It appears that the Emeril line is a great value if you don't need the cachet of the Classic line.
Description of Wusthof Emeril Pro 4-1/2-Inch UtilityEmeril Pro Cutlery was designed with Emeril Lagasse?s expertise in the kitchen and Wusthof?s engineering of knives. This team effort has produced one of the most beautiful and functional knives on the market. Emeril has kicked it up a notch with Emeril Pro. It is a precision forged knife with discriminating attention to comfort and performance. From the Micarta handle to the mirrored polished edge, the Emeril Pro will surely be a kitchen favorite. As in a recipe, it is the little things and the attention to detail that truly make a dish a masterpiece. the same is true with fine cutlery and it is this detail that makes Emeril Pro stand out. Stepped up a little from the traditional parer the 4-1/2-inch utility has the feel of a parer with a slightly longer blade for slicing fruits and vegitable as well as small meat cuts.
