Product Description
Cook's knives are indispensable kitchen helpers. They perform a wide variety of cutting chores, from mincing to dicing and slicing. The wide, extra-heavy 10-inch blade of this example provides powerful heft, which makes it a particularly efficient worker. Its large triangularly shaped blade is ideal for chopping and can be used to carry minced or cubed ingredients to waiting pans or bowls. This second largest wide cook's knife in the series, this is the knife to buy if you want extra blade heaviness and size, a combination that equals fast, efficient, effortless cutting.
Part of the Classic series, the knife represents two centuries of unexcelled Wusthof craftsmanship. Like other cutlery in the series, it's hand-forged from a single piece of stainless steel for maximum strength; the hand-polished blade is exactingly calibrated to be hard enough to resist dulling yet soft enough to take a keen edge when it's honed or sharpened. Dishwasher-safe and with a traditionally shaped, ergonomically designed handle that is triple-riveted for durability, this knife brings a guaranteed lifetime of low-maintenance cutting to any cook who owns it.

One big knife
By Tom L.
This is a great knife, which I happen to think is well balanced and offers a lot of stability.It is however a very large knife which some might find unwieldy or too heavy. It is significantly bigger than the standard Classic 10" chef's knife.More importantly, because of the knifes height (width), the blade itself is very wide and would not fit in any standard knife block I could find. In the end I bought the super knife block from Williams-Sonoma and took a router to widen the cleaver slot.

The ultimate kitchen knife
By taqmantim
I must say this is one fantastic knife. It is the knife I usually use when prepping a meal (sandwiches don't count). When I purchase a knife, I always personally sharpen it, so I can't really speak for the factory edge, but it accepts and holds an edge wonderfully. Having the extra wide knife (along with added heft) has more of a curve to it allowing for an easy chopping motion. I have purchased Henckel Pro S in the past and, after noticing a couple of flaws that passed their QC in my expensive knives, I will never purchase one without personally inspecting it first. Wusthof has much better QC so I have no problem ordering them through the mail.FYI-This knife needs a large cutting board and a serious knife block to hold it. I personally use the Wusthof 25-slot "mega" block and it fits in all three of the top chef knife positions. Overall this knive is an investment, but you will love it!

By GearGuy
Don't let the size or price intimidate you, this is a great knife for the kitchen. I'd been using an 8-inch chef's knife for years because that's what came in a set. But it left a lot to be desired for chopping up even medium size quantities of food. This 10-inch Wusthof has been one of the best upgrades for our kitchen.The handle feels just right and the balance is superb. The shape of the blade is perfect for a rocking motion that lets you quickly chop and mince. Of course the quality of the steel is legendary so this knife holds an edge and will last. Considering how frequently this knife gets used in the kitchen, it's a great investment.
