Emerilware by Wüsthof 3-Piece Paring Knife Set
from: Wusthof
Amazon.com Review:
Signed by celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse (Bam!) and made by celebratedcutlery manufacturer Wüsthof, the three paring knives in this moderately priced set havethe same three-rivet, virtually indestructible poly handles as Wüsthof's premium Classicknives. Instead of being forged, however, the blades and full tangs are cut from steelsheets by precision lasers. That means no bolsters, but it also means the knives areperfectly shaped and fit their handles seamlessly. Moreover, the blades' high-carbonstainless steel is identical to that of Wüsthof's premium knives, only thinner. The threeknives equip a kitchen for all little tasks. One has a 3-inch blade with a straight, serratededge and a drop point for slicing tomatoes and soft fruits. Another has a tapered, 3-inchblade with a sharp point for peeling fruits and vegetables. The third has a sharply curvedblade, known as a bird's beak, for shaping vegetables. The knives are dishwasher-safe,but hand washing is recommended to protect their edges. --Fred Brack

- The handle broke off in my hand
I'm the one who wrote the "disposable wusthof" review below.
After more than a year of steady use, the the bird's beak parer just snapped in half in my hand, right where the tang ends in the handle.
Full tangs strengthen the handle, but I figured for a paring knife (that never hit a cutting board) a 3/4 tang was good enough.I was wrong - cheap knives are cheap knives.I'm buying the Classic version to replace this.

- disposable wusthof...
These knives are almost identical in materials and profile to the equivalent knives in the Wusthof Classic line.
The difference is in the construction: these knive's blades are cut, not forged, are much thinner, have no bolster, and are 3/4-tanged. The handles are molded onto the blades, and have two rivets, not three (though larger Emerilware knives have three rivets). The result is a very inexpensive knife that can sit next to your Wusthof Classic Chef's knife and carver, and still ... Read More
Rating: - Overall, A GREAT DEAL
Emeril and I have someting in common! We both use Wusthof knives! He's famous, I'm not!
Wusthof manufacturing quality and time tested paring knife designs for a real good price. The handles in this set are CLOSE TO the Wusthof Classic Line but not quite as comfortable and "familiar".I would say these knives are more a compromise between the forged CLASSIC line and the lower cost consumer "GOURMET" line from Wusthof. Only TWO instead of three rivets in the handle, the other differences are ... Read More
