Product Description
The two must have knives in any kitchen are a cooks knife and a paring knife. This Culinar 2-piece set combines these two sought after knives. for chopping, slicing and dicing. The Wusthof Culinar brush stainless handle design is combined with a contoured shape to add comfort and control. Located in The Cutlery Capital of the World, Solingen Germany, the Wusthof factory history goes back as far as 1814 when the company was listed with the Duchy of Berg. To this day, the company remains family owned. Throughout it’s history, Wusthof has focused almost solely on the manufacturing of forged knives for the professional chef and home cooking enthusiast. Wusthof uses a special blend of German steel through out the whole length of the knife. The ingredients of this steel are proudly etched on each blade. Wusthof not only uses the best materials to make a fine knife, but it is also crucial that each blade is precisely tempered. This tempering allows the knife to hold its edge for an extremely long time, yet still be able to be maintained in your home kitchen with out the need to be sent away for maintenance. Our unique compound angle is not seen in many knives. This angle tapers from the spine of the knife to the edge to allow for a sturdy, yet extremely sharp edge while it also tapers from the bolster to the tip to give the knife strength as well as flexibility.

Best money I have spent on knives
By Neil Fairall
The first set of knives I ever purchased was a Henckels block about five years ago, for which I paid about a hundred dollars and thought I was really splurging. It was adequate for a while but now I find myself using the serrated edge bread knife for most cutting chores as all the other knives haven't held a decent edge.Looking for a decent cook's knife last year, research indicated that lots of people liked the Wusthof brand, and the Culinar line in particular looked very good as well. I thought a hundred and forty dollars was an awful lot of money for two knives but they didn't disappoint in the least. They are tremendously sharp and hold their edge very well.I have given this set to my mother in law, who has every knife she ever bought and tends to use them to open letters and remove door hinges and so on, so you can imagine their condition. She is now a convert and uses them all the time, and I am looking for a set of my own.
