Overview
Wüsthof builds this Gourmet Grey prep set around laser-cut blades with a v-ground edge, tapered from bolster to tip. It pairs a chef's knife and a paring knife with kitchen shears in molded synthetic handles.
The reason to buy it is a compact prep trio that adds shears to the chef's and paring knives, with a full-tang chef's blade. The limitation is the conflicting blade length data and the absence of a block or honing steel.
Who it's for
Cooks with a small counter and modest prep needs can handle chopping, trimming and snipping with three tools. Those who need a utility knife, storage or an all-purpose larger chef's blade should look at a bigger set.
Pros and cons
- Chef's, paring and shears in one set
- Laser-cut high carbon steel
- Full-tang chef's knife
- Molded synthetic handles
- Blade length listing conflicts
- No block or honing steel listed
- Stamped, not forged
Performance notes
The v-ground edge is tapered from bolster to tip so the blade holds its shape and edge, and it is described as easy to sharpen. Full tang adds weight and balance to the chef's knife, and the molded synthetic handles are described as more durable and sanitary than wood.
