Review 2 for Wusthof Gourmet Utility Knife
buffalochip
fromBuffalo, NY
This knife came exceptionally sharp from the factory and has already mastered many cuttung tasks in our kitchen from removing excess fats from uncooked meat to neatly making thin slices of tomato. I wonder how long it will perform at this level before it needs a "touch-up" sharpening? It's a great little knife and i highly recommend it! It comes with its own little sheath for safe storage among other knives in the drawer.
Pros: Easy to Clean/Wash, balanced, Value for Money, quality, Riveted, easy to use, construction, Performs Well, easy to store, durability, Functional/Useful

A really great knife
PostedJune 17, 2010
We have about 12 Wusthof knives. We've only had one problem with any of them, and that was a chip on the handle. They replaced the knife with no problems or questions.
Highly recommended.

Review 4 for Wusthof Gourmet Utility Knife
Overall rating
Would rather spend more for Classic
PostedJanuary 29, 2010

The Gourmet line of the Wusthof line is much thinner than the Classic line. The advantage of that is the thin slicing ability, the disadvantage is in cutting dense things like jicama, horseradish, hard cheeses. Then it becomes flimsy and although I have not broken one of these knives, I can see it happening in the future. I have had knives in the classic line for over 20 years and have thought they were the best of any knife I've used. I was trying to get a bargain by buying this knife, but I wouldn't buy it again.
Pros: Appearance/ Design /Style, Ergonomic handle, Performs Well, Weight
Cons: Construction, lack of durability
