Wüsthof Classic 8-Inch Bread Knife, Black | Precision Edge Technology

Overview

The Wüsthof Classic 8-Inch Bread Knife, Black, blends generations of craftsmanship with modern steel precision. Part of the iconic Classic Series, it features a full-tang, triple-riveted synthetic polypropylene handle that resists fading, discoloration, heat, and impact for dependable daily use.

The blade is precision forged from a single block of high carbon stainless steel and tempered to 58 HRC. PEtec technology sharpens the edge to be noticeably sharper and to hold its edge longer than earlier designs, making routine bread slicing smoother and more predictable.
