About Wusthof Forged Knives Each Wusthof knife is precision forged from a single piece of chrome-molybdenum-vanadium steel. This specialized high carbon, stain-resistant alloy ensures that the critical characteristics of each Wusthof knife are right there from the beginning: razor sharp, long-lasting cutting edge that is both highly stain resistant and easily restorable (able to be sharpened). This formula is imprinted on each forged blade is the following world-renowned Wusthof steel formula: X50 CrMoV15
- X = Stainless Steel
- 50 = 0.5% carbon - significant for sharpness
- Cr = Chromium for stain-resistance
- Mo = Molybdenum further enhances stain resistance
- V = Vanadium for hardness and edge retention
- 15 = Contents of chromium (15%)
