Wusthof Crafter 8" Carving Knife (1010800720)

Precision-forged from a single piece of high-carbon, stain-free steel, the Wüsthof Crafter 9" Carving Knife features a long, narrow blade and is used to precisely slice fine cuts of turkey, roast, ham, and other large cooked meats. A carving knife has a sharper edge than a chef’s knife, enabling it to cut thinner and more delicate slices. Its extra length allows it to make long and smooth slicing strokes—rather than having to saw back and forth rapidly – for professional-looking slices. The narrow blade helps with maneuverability, especially around the bone found in ham or prime rib. The carving knife can also be used to fillet salmon and other large fish and even easily slice larger fruits and vegetables. The long blade and pointed tip offer more control when guiding meat away from bone, but also helps to move food from serving dishes to dinner plates! The rustic and exceptionally high-quality Crafter series from Wusthof evokes and celebrates the spirit of old-world craftsmanship with traditional blade shapes, authentic brass rivets, and smoked oak handles. Especially eye-catching is the water-resistant smoked oak handle featuring one-of-a-kind grain patterns, a branded trident logo, and beautiful brass rivets. With the use of Wusthof’s high-carbon stain-free steel, precision-forged construction, and famed Precision Edge Technology, all the Wusthof Crafter knives have incredible edge-retention, durability, balance due to a full tang, and corrosion resistance.
