Wüsthof Gourmet 5-Inch Spreader Knife, Black

The Gourmet Serrated Spreader, also known as a sandwich knife, features saw-like scallops that effortlessly cut through the tough skins of tomatoes and bread. The oval shape makes it ideal for spreading mayonnaise. Unlike typical stamped knives, which are punched out like cookie cutters, Wüsthof Gourmet knives are precisely laser-cut. This intricate manufacturing process is superior to the "cookie-cutter" method, as it is more precise and results in less distortion.

Wüsthof uses the same high-quality German steel in their Gourmet knives as they do in their more expensive models. This special steel blend is proudly etched on each blade. Wüsthof not only uses the best materials, but they also ensure that each blade is precisely tempered, allowing the knife to retain its edge for an exceptionally long time. These knives can be easily maintained at home, without the need for professional sharpening.

Wüsthof's history dates back to 1814, when the company was first listed with the Duchy of Berg. Located in Solingen, Germany, the cutlery capital of the world, the Wüsthof factory remains family-owned to this day. Each step in the manufacturing process is performed to exacting standards by skilled German workers, who utilize the latest computer-guided technology. This balance of German engineering and traditional craftsmanship is the secret behind the creation of every Wüsthof knife, known worldwide for its unique and uncompromising quality.

The Wüsthof Gourmet Series features a 5-inch Spreader Knife with a triple-riveted, synthetic polypropylene handle that resists fading, discoloration, heat, and impact. The high-carbon stainless steel blade is precisely laser-cut, ensuring incredible sharpness and easy maintenance. This versatile knife smoothly cuts and spreads butter, as well as other condiments like jam, peanut butter, and mayonnaise. The serrated section also allows the knife to effortlessly cut through breads, cheeses, fruits, and vegetables.

Wüsthof Cutlery is crafted to resist corrosion and dulling, and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. Bearing the Solingen name, a designation reserved for products that meet the strictest quality standards, Wüsthof's seven-generation family legacy and centuries of tradition ensure the superior quality of their kitchen knives.
