Features of Wusthof Crafter Series
- Crafter is forged using the same steel that's we use in all Wusthof's forged lines.
- PEtec (Precision Edge Technology) is applied. PEtec results in an edge that is 20% sharper with twice the edge retention than non PEtec edges. PEtec is applied on all forged lines.
- Handles are Smoked Oak. This process impregnates the handle and makes it more resistant to picking up food particles and odor from food. Hand washing is required, not dishwasher safe.
- Demi Bolster reduces weight and makes the knife easier to sharpen uniformly.
- Triple Brass Rivets add beauty, strength, and durability.
- Lifetime warranty against workmanship defects.

MetroKitchen.com recommends washing your knives by hand; then immediately drying them. Do not let your knives soak in water.
Avoid cleaners containing bleach or citrus extracts. They may stain the surface of your knives.
Always use a wooden cutting board to preserve blade sharpness. Cutting on hard surfaces such as stone, metal or glass quickly dulls blades.
To maintain a sharper cutting edge, use a sharpening steel, preferably each time after you've used a knife.
It's best to store your Wusthof knife so its edge and your fingers are protected, preferably in a block or in-drawer knife tray.
We suggest using a meat cleaver when you need to cut through bone, otherwise you can damage your knife blade.
