Wusthof Classic 10-Inch Bread Knife

Go big
It's a Wusthof Classic, so it's got all the weight, balance, comfort and precision sharpness of the great German line. This is a great choice for all amateur & aspiring chefs, and many professionals.

The purpose of this review is to urge any shopper investing in a Wusthof bread knife to go for the full 10" length -- it makes a positive difference in leverage as you slice, and easily clears the diameter of virtually any boule, ciabatta, and other artisan loaves. The same principle applies to roasts and other meats, if you use your serrated knives for carving.

The length doesn't diminish anyone's ability to slice tomatoes, panini or any other foods, either. If you're going to spend $100+ on a quality bread knife, make your money go further with the 10" model.

Wusthof Classic Bread Knife
This is a great knife. It not only cuts bread like it's butter, but is also great for slicing tomatoes. No matter how thin you want to slice the tomato, this knife can do it.

Wusthof is cutting edge!!!
We bought the Wusthof 10" Bread Knife because it was recommended by Cook's Illustrated Magazine as the best serrated knife available on the market. My wife and I make homemade Italian country bread and the crust is thick and can be a trick to slice well. This Wusthof 10" bread knife cuts it easily into any thickness we want -- and takes much of the manual labor out of the job. We love our new bread knife and we would recommend it to anyone who makes and loves artisan breads.

Thanks, Amazon, for the great price on this great knife!

Sincerely,

Wusthof 8-in. Classic Bread Knife.

never disappointed
I have yet to be disappointed with a wusthof knife. This one too, was sure to impress. Every knife in the "classic" series is perfectly balanced with a full tang. The bread knife slices through even the crustiest bread like it's pudding.

Expensive? Yes. But worth every penny!
Let's face it you can buy a break knife for alot less money. If you are looking for quality, nothing and I mean NOTHING beats a product made by Wusthof. This German Company knows cutting knives and they are not about to 'cut' quality/materials to sell the same type of competitive product for $19.99. TV commercially advertised products (especially the buy one get one) are junk. Like when was the last time you tried using your kitchen knife to cut a steel pipe or saw a 2x4 in half. You want the BEST...you can't miss with this product...Amazon knows and carries the right stuff.

Wusthof Classic 7-Inch Sandwich Knife

Very good quality
Bought to add to my wife's set. She love these and respects the sharpness... They do hold a good edge for a lengthy time and are well balanced. Only thing I would change is the red sticker...should be engraved..

Wusthof Classic 10-Inch Super Slicer

Great For Breads Or Meats
This is a great all-around slicer. We've used it on very soft, moist cakes and breads - both soft and crusty.

But, thanks to a sharp edge and the length, it does a great job on meats. It breezes right through a London Broil and does a beautiful job slicing up an entire beef tenderloin into individual filet mignons. Sharp enough and long enough that you can usually complete a cut in a single stroke, providing a cleaner cut. I even tried it on a turkey last Thanksgiving and it worked great.

One really nice feature of this blade over many other slicers (including some other Wüsthofs) is that it is scalloped on only one side, so you can still take it to a steel between professional sharpenings.

Amazing, super sharp
This amazing knife breezes through super hard, crusty day old bread, making sharp clean cuts. It is long and wide enough to cut beautiful cake layers. This is one awesome knife. I bought it on Amazon, but wish I had shopped around a little first, I would have saved $30.

sturdy go-to workhorse for large items
Often enough there's a watermelon or big round loaf of bread or turkey or some other thing that's broad enough that I can't quite get any of my "regular" knives through it in one downward motion. It's awkward when you have to cut things by halves, trying to meet in the middle, etc. Or sometimes I just need the leverage of a long blade for some reason. That's when I turn to my super slicer. It has yet to be bested by anything in my particular kitchen. It cuts great, is sturdy, sharp, menacing even. I love it.
