Overview

Wusthof forged this sandwich knife with a full tang and a bolster for balance, and its wide blade doubles as a spreader. Rounded serrations cut through tough skins without crushing the food inside.

Rounded serrations slice more smoothly and cleanly than pointed saw-tooth edges, which suits tomatoes, bagels and small loaves. The wide blade holds slices straight. The listing gives no care instructions beyond the lifetime warranty.

Who it's for

Households that make sandwiches, slice tomatoes and portion small loaves will use the width and the rounded serrations. Cooks who need one knife for everything should start with a chef knife.
