The 12-Piece Wusthof Classic Knife Block Set delivers the essential knives you need for quick, efficient kitchen prep. Handcrafted in Germany, the Wusthof Classic cutlery line is precision forged from a single piece of specially tempered high-carbon, stain-resistant steel for exceptional strength, then skillfully honed by hand to razor sharpness. Hand-buffed virtually indestructible full tang handles are triple-riveted for superior strength and durability and ensure a firm, comfortable grip for smooth maneuverability. Inner ring anode safeguards rivets and full tang from rust. A slight curve enhances the balance of the ultra-sharp blades that sharpen easily and hold an edge.
