Wüsthof Gourmet Steak Knife Block

No, these knives are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the high-carbon stainless steel blades and the handle rivets, we recommend hand washing them with warm water and mild soap immediately after use.

These Gourmet series knives are precision-stamped, meaning they are cut from a large sheet of steel rather than forged from a single piece. This construction makes them lighter and more agile in the hand while still providing excellent sharpness and durability for everyday dining.

Each of the six steak knives in this set features a 4.5-inch blade, which is the standard length for effectively slicing through various cuts of meat without being overly cumbersome.

Yes, the handles are ergonomically designed and triple-riveted to the blade tang. This construction ensures a comfortable, secure hold that feels balanced and sturdy while you are cutting.

Yes, the 6-slot hardwood block is specifically designed to keep the blades separated and protected. Storing them in the block prevents the edges from dulling against other utensils in a drawer.

Yes, the high-carbon stainless steel used in these blades is formulated to resist rust and stains. However, you should still dry them thoroughly after washing to keep the steel in peak condition.
