Description

The Wusthof Performer 17cm Santoku proves its worth with every use: exceptional quality and unlimited performance. The ultra-hard diamond-like carbon (DLC) coated blade ensures reduced friction due to the lotus effect and glides precisely through both soft and hard ingredients alike. The non-slip honeycomb structure of the Hexagon Power Grip guarantees extreme control. Stylish black visual, razor sharp edge, unsurpassable performance: unique design meets pure dynamism in the ultimate Wusthof range.

An alternative to the chef's knife. Great for cutting, chopping and mincing vegetables. The blade has a straighter edge than a chef's knife and has a blunted sheepsfoot-tip blade with a thinner spine. It can easily slice thin-boned and boneless meats, fish and vegetables.

  • Diamond-like carbon coating increases surface hardness to a unique 104 Rockwell
  • Thanks to the lotus effect the knife glides effortlessly through food
  • Newly designed Hexagon Power Grip with non-slip honeycomb structure
  • Forged from one piece of WÜSTHOF stainless steel
  • Forged in Solingen, Germany
  • Black, sharp, unsurpassable
  • Not suitable for dishwasher cleaning (damage will occur to the blade coating) – handwash only

Diamond-like carbon coated blade for extreme performance. The Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coated blade, being extremely hard and durable, is the ultimate quality in the knife market. The black, almost magical coating increases the surface hardness of WÜSTHOF steel from 58 to a unique 104 Rockwell.

For connoisseurs, this means a remarkable advantage in performance: its extreme robustness makes it virtually immune to adverse external effects and the diamond-like surface is also extremely resistant to heat.

DLC was originally developed for the extreme conditions in space travel and motor sports; WÜSTHOF is the first knife manufacturer in the world to use this technology on a fully forged knife with bolster.

The Lotus Effect: Particles simply roll off. Performer knives glide through food almost frictionlessly: full of momentum. Thanks to the particularly low friction and non-stick properties of the diamond-like coating and the lotus effect of the black surface, particles simply roll off the blade. Freshly cut pieces of food, such as slices of a juicy onion, slip away: an ideal situation when speed and precision are required at times of intense activity in the kitchen.

Due to the hydrophobic effect, all liquids simply run off, including acids from citrus fruits, as well as fats or starches such as those from potatoes. Simply wipe the blade after each stretch at your counter and the captivating blade shines like new.

The Hexagon Power Grip – full control, always. The DLC high-performance technology is perfected by the innovative, slip-resistant Hexagon Power Grip. With its offset, non-slip honeycomb structure, it provides optimum grip in every situation and ensures outstanding control.

The bonus for the user: even under hectic, wet or other difficult working conditions, you have a firm grip on the knife, allowing you to always use your blade safely and precisely. The handle of glass fibre-reinforced polyamide is easy-care and dishwasher-safe: suitable for everyday use. Overall, the Hexagon Power Grip consistently complements the performance promise of the DLC blade.

Perfect Fusion: High technology meets knife craft. State-of-the-art technology and over 200 years of expertise in knife craft go hand-in-hand with a natural feel for the perfect balance of a knife. Inspired by the experience and ideas of four enthusiastic professionals who value performance in all areas of life. Developed by designers and engineers who aim for the unsurpassable. Manufactured in one of the world's most modern knife production facilities. This knife will captivate you – for a lifetime!
