WüsthofClassic 5" Utility Knife, Black, Stainless Steel

my new favorite knife for small to medium cooking jobs - awesome balance, very sharp, and well designed.

Love these knives. I'm slowly replacing another set with wusthof. The grip and how well it maintains its sharp edge really sold me on the from my first chef's knife.

My wife's favorite knife. Wonderful quality. Sharpens and holds an edge wellAfter dipping into the world of Japanese knives for a couple years, I'm glad I've come back to German knives. No need to worry about the edge getting chippy with these Germans. Wife can cut whatever she wants

Exceptional quality—100% recommended. The one to get once and forever. The size is perfect for many tasks.

Wustof is pretty much the only knives I buy, currently have seven in my cutlery drawer. They aren't cheap, but a classic case of you get what you pay for. The are easy to sharpen and hold an edge well. Very highly recommend!

Was looking for something a bit smaller than my large chef knife, when I don't need the heft. This is filling the bill nicely. I was initially thinking of a Santoku style, but I saw this on sale and I wanted a forged blade. Happy I went with this.It is very sharp and we'll see how it holds up. I have sharpened Wusthof knives for friends and they get scary sharp, so I assume I'll be able to maintain that with this one.

WÜSTHOF Classic 5" Utility Knife, Black, Stainless Steel is everything promised. A small versatile and well balanced knife with an exceptional sharp blade for preparing mid-sized meals. The knife is well worth the purchase and I would do it again. It does look nice with my small collection. Have a great day and stay safe! ☘️

I have a thing about kitchen knives. They must hold a sharp edge and Wusthof has never disappointed. I must have. $3,000 invested in my kitchen knives and my favorites are always Wusthof. They are a type of stainless steel material, which some people absolutely hate but these have to be the exception. And this little 4.5 inch knife is no exception. It’s has a nice point perfect for intricate cuts. My only complaint is I wish the handle was a little larger in all regards and I wish they made a 5.5 inch version. This is more like a larger, wider paring knife. It could almost be your “go to” knife for 85% of your needs if it were just 1 inch longer. But I’d still recommend this knife to anyone who enjoys cutting with a quality knife and not “sawing” through your food during preparation. Plus I got it on sale for around $59 and free shipping with my prime account, a necessity living in Hawaii.
