WÜSTHOF Gourmet

With a wonderful price-to-performance ratio, non-forged Gourmet knives carve a special place in the WÜSTHOF repertoire when it comes to their intuitive and lightweight handling.

Every non-forged knife in the Gourmet series showcases typical WÜSTHOF high quality, with each blade laser-cut and toughened to a high degree of hardness at 56 Rockwell. The multi-step production process results in a nimble, lighter-weight version of its forged counterpart, making Gourmet knives an ideal entry point for new and seasoned cooks alike.

Series Highlights

Optimal Comfort and Durability

Gourmet knives feature a new, comfortable, and highly durable handle design made from a synthetic material called Polyoxymethylene (POM), which has a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discolouration.

Excellent value meets expert quality: Laser-cut, stamped Gourmet knives offer unmatched WÜSTHOF quality at a superior price-to-performance ratio.
