Cold cuts knife
Blade Material
The blade of the knife is forged from a single piece of high carbon stainless steel. This sturdy steel resists stains and corrosion, guarantees longevity, and ensures precise cutting.
The hardness level of the blade is 58 (±1) HRC (a knife with a hardness above 56 HRC is considered good).
Handle
The handle is made of solid smoked oak, which makes it resistant to water and gives it an unyielding character.
It bears the Wüsthof logo and is secured with three brass rivets. The handguard at the end of the handle is shaped to ensure that the knife is always held securely. The bolster protects the fingers, while the balance allows for flexibility and facilitates precise work. The slim shape of the blade reduces its weight and allows for more efficient work.
Cutting Surface
It is recommended to perform cuts on wooden or plastic cutting surfaces. Glass, stone, and marble cutting surfaces are unsuitable as they can cause permanent damage to the knife blades.
Cleaning
Wash the knife with warm water before using it for the first time. After each use, make sure to wash the knife immediately (with a mild detergent) and dry it with a soft cloth. Especially if you have cut acidic foods, you should wash the knife immediately after use.
For your own safety, you should always wipe the knife away from your body and away from its edge, using a cloth or towel.
It is not recommended to wash it in the dishwasher but by hand, in order to protect its material and maintain its sharpness for a long time.
Sharpening
No matter how sharp a knife is at the beginning, after some use it needs sharpening, something that you can achieve with a sharpener, sharpening stone or strop.
You can understand if your knife cuts well with an easy test using the knife and a piece of paper. A sharp knife can easily and cleanly cut a piece of paper. On the other hand, a knife that needs sharpening will struggle and its cutting will be dull.
It is also advisable to sharpen your knives with a professional occasionally, to repair possible damage to the blade's edge and to maintain sharpness.
