The Wüsthof Classic Chinese Chef's Knife 18 cm is an indispensable all-rounder for every home chef. It effortlessly chops a cabbage or slices a tomato into wafer-thin slices in no time. Thanks to its wide blade, it is also perfect for scooping up ingredients and moving them to the pan. The fine cutting edge is razor-sharp, but we do not recommend using it for cutting through bones or very hard fruits such as coconuts. For these tasks, a European cleaver or butcher knife is more suitable.

This edition of the Classic series stands out with its stainless steel rivets and seamless finish. Despite its simple appearance, the knife has been developed as a robust workhorse that can handle any challenge.
