WÜSTHOF'S best-selling collection for generations, CLASSIC full-tang knives are precision-forged from a single piece of an exclusive high-carbon stainless steel. CLASSIC knives feature a new handle design made of a highly durable synthetic material – Polyoxymethylene (POM) – which has a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discoloration. The CLASSIC 8" Bread Knife slices through bread or baguettes with minimal crumbs. The serrations along the edge help guide the blade through tough crust without compressing the soft inside. Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) yields a blade that is 20% sharper with twice the edge retention. Product Highlights: Precision-forged from a single blank of high carbon stainless steel Full tang that is triple riveted to the handle for precise control Tempered to 58⁰ Rockwell Full bolster and finger guard Made in Germany
