The Wusthof Classic tomato knife features a serrated edge like a bread knife but is a lot smaller. The teeth are designed to ‘bite’ through the tough resilient skin of tomatoes and other fleshy fruits and vegetables. This knife is also known as a sausage or baguette knife as it is suited for cutting crusty French baguettes, bagels, and hard salamis and other sausages.
The Wusthof 'Classic' line is the most popular line that Wusthof offer, featuring a triple-riveted handle made from a dense synthetic material called Polyoxymethylene, a fully exposed tang and a full bolster that add weight and balance. They are also curved at the butt end to prevent your hand from slipping.
Wusthof started in Solingen, the 'city of blades', over two hundred years ago by the Wusthof family. Now seven generations later, the company is still family owned, and renowned for making some of the best kitchen knives of the highest quality and durability.
