Wüsthof Classic Bread Knife:
The classic among knives that belong in every kitchen. In addition to bread, the Wüsthof Classic Bread Knife is also suitable for hard-skinned vegetables and fruit as well as for roasts, e.g. roast crusts. The concave, ie inwardly curved, serrated edge of the knife works like the teeth of a saw, only much more filigree. So you don't have to exert any pressure to cut all kinds of bread. Even with hard crusts there is a clean cut.

WÜSTHOF - The company and the history behind it:
It is one of the more unusual things that a company is still in family hands even after more than 200 years. It is just as unusual that Wüsthof has remained loyal to the blade city of Solingen throughout the years and only produces here. At other international locations one could manufacture more cheaply, of course. But continuity and long-term thinking are important to us. And we believe that this is exactly the right attitude for a product like our knives. You could call it discouraged, but the Wüsthof family has shown more than enough courage in its history, according to the management of the Wüsthof company.
Family business since 1814.
In 1814 large parts of Europe were still under the influence of the Napoleonic Wars when Johann Abraham Wüsthof founded the “Factory of Fine Steel Goods”. The naming as a factory was just as optimistic as the whole company. Because in this “factory”, which was actually a cellar, our company founder worked day in and day out on scissors together with a journeyman. But the optimism should soon pay off. Because the company grew, became better known and bigger. Not least thanks to the three sons of Johann Wüsthof, who all learned the craft of scissors-sharpening.
One of his sons, Eduard Wüsthof, finally took over the factory and expanded the portfolio to include no fewer than 1,200 models of various handcrafted pocket, bread, vegetable and butcher knives. His brother Robert, on the other hand, who was in charge of commercial management, moved overseas for the first time in 1881.
Sylvia -
I decided on the variant with a 23 cm blade length. Very good information and timely dispatch. There is nothing to complain about the Wüsthof quality. Clear recommendation!
