Overview

A cook with a small cutting board gets a compact chef's knife in the Wusthof Gourmet, laser-cut and stamped from high carbon stainless steel. The synthetic polypropylene handle resists fading, discoloration, heat and impact.

A shorter, lighter chef's knife is easier to control on small boards and quick jobs. Stamped construction means no bolster and less heft than forged knives.

Who it's for

Apartment cooks and anyone with smaller hands get a nimble chef's blade with a durable white handle. Those who rely on heft to power through dense produce should look at forged knives.

Performance notes

A stamped blade is thinner and lighter, so it moves quickly through herbs and vegetables with little fatigue. The shorter length limits rocking cuts across wide piles of food.
