Description
Wusthof’s Performer series delivers exceptional quality in a unique all black design. The ultra-hard, Diamond-Like-Carbon (DLC) performance finish slides through any food with exceptional ease and also prevents food from sticking to the blade. DLC is a high-tech process derived from aerospace and motorsport designs. It increases the surface hardness of its forged steel by 146% making the blade extremely resistant to acids, bases, and scratches. DLC also reduces friction and protects crucial components from wear as it increases their resilience. The end result is smooth, safe, effortless slicing.
The non-slip Hexagon-Power-Grip was developed with inspiration from the high-performance tires in racecars. This new handle structure features glass-fiber-reinforced material for an uncompromising grip. Perfectly arranged hexagons reflect light like diamonds for a look that is graceful yet dynamic.
The Performer 7” Hollow Edge Rotoku moves beyond the “three virtues” of a traditional Santoku (named for myriad ways it is used for meat, fish, and vegetables) to add three more core functions: chopping, serving, and transporting. The wide blade does a masterful job in fine slicing, speedy chopping, and precise serving as well as scooping and transferring ingredients from the cutting board to a skillet or bowl. The curved edge pairs the smooth, rocking cuts essential to the European-style chef’s knife with the precision of an Asian-style chef’s knife. Hollows along the blade’s edge allow small air pockets to form during slicing to minimize sticking.
- Hand wash, rinse, and immediately towel dry
- Avoid using abrasive sponges or leaving the knife soaking in water
