Product Description:
Every element of this renowned cutlery contributes to its precision and ease of use. The high-carbon stainless steel blades are hardened to maintain a sharp edge and full tangs provide perfect balance with riveted, high-impact composition handles. This Classic 6-in. Sandwich Knife is perfect for such everyday tasks as slicing cold cuts, or cutting sandwiches, fruits and vegetables. Prized possessions of professional chefs, Wusthof knives are an invaluable asset of any kitchen. In Solingen, Germany, each piece is hand-forged in 38 manufacturing steps by skilled craftsmen.

Amazon.com Review:
Smaller than most slicing knives but large enough to cut sandwiches, this knife is a great kitchen helper. Its thin, flared-tip blade glides effortlessly through sandwich fillings such as meat or cold cuts, and also works well to cut fruit and vegetables into delicate slices. Cooks who own a sandwich knife come to rely on its precision and versatility.

Part of the Classic series, this knife represents two centuries of unexcelled Wüsthof craftsmanship. Like other cutlery in the series, it's hand-forged from a single piece of stainless steel for maximum strength; the hand-polished blade is exactingly calibrated to be hard enough to resist dulling yet soft enough to take a keen edge when it's honed or sharpened. Dishwasher-safe and with a traditionally shaped, ergonomically designed handle that is triple-riveted for durability, this knife brings a guaranteed lifetime of low-maintenance cutting to any cook who owns it. --Arthur Boehm

  • Forged high-carbon stainless steel blade, hand-honed for razor-like sharpness

  • Lifetime guarantee

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - extreamly useful knife
My most used knife in the kitchen in my Wusthof 4" paring knife.The next most used knife is my Wusthof 6 3/8" Sandwich knife.This knife stays incredably sharp.It's blade is thinner than most other knives in its size, including the Henkle.The blade taper starts almost from the very edge. These two factors helps it slice through what you are cutting easier that thicker knives.I have found the blade thickness to be a very big factor when cutting.I have Henkle knives also, but they do not ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - this is a wonderful knife for more than sandwiches
I love this knife and do not think it is just for sandwiches!I use this for cutting everything, and I find it much more easier to handle than a chef's/cook's knife.It is bigger than a paring knife, and yet handles like one, so it is perfect slicing things like cheese, apples and yes, sandwiches.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - So satisfied...
My old favorite for almost 30 years was the 6" chef's knife until this one moved in a year ago.

One reviewer opined that the 4" and 8" blades take care of either end of the spectrum, so who needs this knife? Me. Think of it as a broad spectrum knife! I use it and skip the 4" and 8" knives. Even though the other knives are available, this is the one I go for most of the time. I also prefer it to our beautiful Santoku knife.

Another reviewer thought it too ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Another Excellent Knife from Wüsthof
I bought this knife for my dad a few weeks ago (for fathers' day).He uses it almost exclusively in place of his older knives now!The 6-inch design is a perfect length for almost any job, too.
When I was researching, a good number of people said that it was not multi-functional enough to be worth the price.I found that the knife definitely has some things it does better than others, but it still does a fine job cutting vegetables; the taller blade does optimize it for sandwiches and such, ...

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Ok knife, but why?
It's not that this isn't a high quality knife, it is.

For that quality, I'll give it four stars.It's got a full bolster, and it's forged (not stamped) in the German style.It's very hard, and takes a good edge, that lasts well.It's perhaps a bit tough to get an edge on without knowing what you're doing if using a flat stone, so for that I'll give it four not five stars.

The thing is, why do you need a $...sandwich knife?Many other companies make many other knives in a similar ... Read More
