WMF Grand Class 1891826032, Chinese chef’s knife

The WMF Grand Class Chinese chef’s knife is shaped like a cleaver, but it is not suitable for cutting meat off bones. You use it to cut or chop herbs and vegetables, or for crushing a clove of garlic. In the Chinese kitchen this chef’s knife is often used because the height of the blade enables you to easily use your fingers as a guide as you’re chopping. You can also easily scoop up the chopped ingredients. It works safely and quickly, and is very practical.

WMF Grand Class type of steel

The blade is made from X50Cr15MoV steel, This is a type of steel that is often used for kitchen knives. This is simply because it is easy to sharpen, retains its sharpness well and has excellent corrosion resistance. WMF knives are always sharpened with laser precision. Each knife is individually measured with a laser, after which the optimal sharpening angle is determined. A robot then sharpens the blade to an unprecedented sharpness. Ready for a lifetime of intensive use.

WMF Grand Class handle

The handle is made from POM. This is an extremely durable type of plastic that can withstand all substances and conditions that can occur in a kitchen. The blade runs throughout the entire handle. The POM scales are seamlessly attached to the blade in the traditional way, with two rivets. It is impossible for dirt to get between the parts. The bolster – the metal part between the handle and the blade – contributes to the perfect balance, and it also protects your fingers. Better safe than sorry!
