Cheap Wüsthof Classic 8-Inch Carving Knife with Hollowed Edge (Kitchen) Price

The Wusthof Classic 8-inch carving knife sports a series of small hollows that run the length of the blade on both sides. These indentations prevent small vacuums that could prevent a long, smooth carving motion. It's especially good at making paper-thin slices, perfect for sandwiches. Though narrow enough for such fine-tuned deli work, it's also sturdy in the Wusthof tradition, strong enough to tackle any roast, be it beef or bird. Wusthof has two meat forks--one curved and one straight-tined--either of which is a natural pairing with the 8-inch carving knife.

Wusthof-Trident employs almost 200 years of experience in designing their knives. On each of Wusthof's Classic knives, the blade, bolster, and tang are forged (as opposed to stamped) from a single piece of steel. Wusthof uses a high-carbon stainless steel that retains the edge and resists wear; each knife has the alloy's formula printed on the blade. The blade is polished to a super-sharp edge and then hand-buffed. Its long, narrow blade--for smooth, uninterrupted motion on the carving board--is laser tested to ensure a uniform surface.

As with all Wusthof Classic knives, the black synthetic handle is built for strength and durability; it's triple-riveted to the steel tang, which shows through on the edges. Though technically dishwasher-safe, Wusthof recommends that their knives be hand washed to preserve their fine cutting edges. The Wusthof Classic 8-inch carving knife has an 8-inch blade and is 13 inches long including the handle; it comes with a small round tip protector. Wusthof offers a limited lifetime guarantee that its knives will be free of defects in materials or craftsmanship. --Garland Withers
