Grand Gourmet Gemüsemesser

A 9 cm blade, often called a paring or vegetable knife, is designed for intricate tasks like peeling, trimming, and slicing small produce. It offers the maneuverability needed for detailed work that a larger chef's knife cannot handle comfortably.

The Cromargan® stainless steel handle is ergonomically shaped to provide a secure grip, but it is a smooth, metal surface. While it is designed for balance and comfort, those who prefer a textured or rubberized grip may find it different from traditional wood or plastic handles.

Performance Cut is WMF's proprietary process that combines traditional hand-forging with precise thermal treatment. This results in a blade that maintains its edge significantly longer than standard stamped knives and offers superior initial sharpness.

While the seamless, all-metal construction is technically dishwasher safe, we strongly recommend hand-washing. High-heat dishwasher cycles and harsh detergents can dull the blade's edge over time and potentially cause surface spotting on high-quality steel.

The forged bolster acts as a transition point between the handle and the blade, providing a weighted balance that makes the knife feel stable in your hand. It also serves as a finger guard, preventing your fingers from slipping forward onto the sharp edge during use.
