Description of Wusthof Grand Prix II 10-Piece Knife Set with Block
The Grand Prix2 cutlery line bears all the traits that Wüsthof knives are known for: impeccable construction, incredible sharpness, and long-lasting durability. Each Grand Prix2 knife is precision-forged--blade, bolster, and tang--from a single piece of high-carbon, stain-resistant steel. The blade is tested by lasers and honed by hand, with computer-controlled front-to-back tapering, grinding, and polishing. The knives promise a lifetime of hard-working companionship in the kitchen. This Wüsthof Grand Prix2 10 piece block set is a great way to jumpstart your cutlery collection or begin overhauling your old set of knives. Designed to meet the most popular cutting demands, the set includes an 8" Cooks knife for chopping, and a 3-1/2-inch paring, 4.5" utility, 5" serrated utility which is also known as a tomato/bagel knife. This sets also includes a 8" bread knife, 6" sandwich knife, 8" carver, kitchen shears. Wusthof also includes a 9-inch sharpening steel and an attractive oak block with a total of 17 slots so you can add specialty knives or your old favorites.Preparing a soothing pot of minestrone or a zesty rack of chicken kabobs requires chopping bell peppers, dicing onions, slicing meat, and mincing garlic. Each task necessitates a different knife that caters to the ingredients? hardiness and texture. To cover the wide gamut of cutting in the kitchen, Wusthof offers this quality knife set from their Grand Prix2 line. Wusthof has produced highly functional knives since setting up base in 1814 in Solinger, Germany. This ten-piece set continues this tradition, equipped with a 3-1/2-inch paring knife, 3-inch serrated paring knife, 6-inch sandwich knife, 7-inch hollow-ground Asian-style Santoku knife, 8-inch carving knife, 8-inch chef?s knife, 8-inch bread knife, kitchen shears, 9-inch sharpening steel, and a knife block. The knife block offers seventeen slots, providing room to store additional Wusthof knives or other favorites.
The blade, bolster, and tang of each knife were precision forged from a single sheet of German high carbon, stainless steel extending through the full length of the handle for increased balance and permanence. The hygienic stainless-steel construction resists rusting, staining, and pitting. The craftsmen at Wusthof honed the blades by hand before employing computer-controlled front-to-back tapering, grinding, and polishing techniques and laser testing to guarantee consistency and lifelong sharpness and efficiency. With single-riveted, pebble-grained molded handles, chefs enjoy an ergonomically-friendly hold and chop without the potential hindrance of slipping. The knife block features sturdy oak construction to protect knives while allowing chefs quick access while cooking. For the best results, sharpen knives regularly at a 20-degree angle on the sharpening steel. Although the knives are dishwasher- safe, washing by hand is highly recommended for continued efficacy. Made in Germany, the set is covered by a lifetime warranty. The knife block measures 8-1/2 by 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 inches and the set weighs 7 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling
