The ideal tool for preparing and carving a salmon: this Wusthof Classic Salmon Knife, with its flexible and extremely sharp blade, slides easily through fish and is particularly suitable for salmon as it allows for the cutting of wafer-thin slices. The dimples - slight depressions near the edge of the blade - create small air cushions that prevent the fish from sticking to the knife.

Wusthof'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 discolouration.

Features:

• 30 cm (12") blade length
• Precision-forged from a single blank of high carbon stainless steel
• Full tang that is triple riveted to the handle for precise control
• Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) yields a blade that is 20% sharper with twice the edge retention.
• Comfortable and highly-durable polyoxymethylene (POM) handle with a traditional look and feel, stickered with Wusthof's red Trident logo
• Full bolster and finger guard
• Wash by hand only
• Crafted in the historic cutlery centre of Solingen, Germany
