If you spend a large portion of your day sorting and chopping vegetables for various dishes, then this is the perfect knife for you. This special blade makes quick work out of nearly every vegetable or fruit that you can think of while providing a flawless cut each and every time, the addition of the "hollow" edge depressions prevent foods from sticking to the knife meaning you'll have to touch the blade less, increasing your rate of speed. A traditional Japanese vegetable cleaver, the Wusthof Gourmet Hollow Edge Nakiri is primarily designed to effortlessly slice, dice and julienne vegetables, and can also be used to cleanly cut the thinnest slices of fruit, fish and meat. Featuring a wide blade with a distinctive, rectangular shape, the Wusthof Gourmet 7" Nakiri Knife is designed for cutting with a forward thrust action, rather than a the traditional rocking or horizontal pull and push movement used with rounded blade knives, such as European-style cook or chef knives. The blade of the Wusthof Gourmet Nakiri Knife is much thinner when compared to other knives in the Gourmet collection, facilitating precision cutting. Additionally, the cutting edge is angled on both sides, which makes it easier to cut straight slices. The Wusthof Gourmet Nakiri Knife with Hollow Ground Edge is distinguished by a row of beveled ovals at the edge of the blade. This design creates air pockets to eliminate drag when cutting sticky foods that tend to adhere to the side of the blade, such as raw potatoes, fish and meat. Laser cut to perfection from a single piece of steel, the Wusthof Gourmet knife is lighter than the Classic series. The blades are stamped rather than forged, using the same high carbon no-stain steel as in the precision forged lines. Made in Solingen, Germany since 1814. Lifetime warranty for materials and/or craftsmanship. Dishwasher safe (but not recommended). Wusthof item number 1025047317, previously 4195-7.

Honing or sharpening depends on whether your knife has lost its sharpness or if it is really blunt. A blade's loss of sharpness can be treated using a honing steel. For dull, blunt knives, use a sharpener. To ensure a beautifully sharp blade, we recommend you hone your knives regularly, after each use. Regular honing prevents blades from deteriorating quickly.
Clean your knives right after use. Thoroughly wash your blades with a non-abrasive sponge or brush, then dry immediately afterwards. Use warm soapy water. Always carefully dry your knives with the blade facing away from you to prevent unintentional injuries. While Wusthof knives are suitable to clean in the dishwasher, we recommend you hand wash only to prolong the life of your blades. Dishwashers can cause your blades to rub against objects during the cycle, causing the blades to deteriorate.
Proper storage of your knives ensures they will last for a very long time. There are three ways we recommend storing your knives; knife blocks, magnetic bar holders, and special cases and space saving rolls. Knife blocks help your knives to sit beautifully on your counter top, while keeping them close at hand. Magnetic bars safely hold your knives and provide space. Special cases and space saving rolls allow you to easily transport your knives without causing damage or harm.
Cutting Surfaces should be smooth, easy to clean and "give" on contact while cutting. J.L. Hufford recommends wooden, bamboo cutting boards, or quality polyethylene boards. Avoid surfaces that can dull or damage the knife such as china, marble, granite, tile, Formica, porcelain, stainless counter tops and glass. Remember to thoroughly clean cutting boards immediately after use after use to prevent harmful bacteria growth from developing.
WÜSTHOF cutlery is manufactured with the highest quality standards and fulfills the required DIN (German Industry Standard) as well as the EN (European Standard).
WÜSTHOF cutlery is fully warranted to be free of defects in material and craftsmanship. The warranty does not apply for normal wear or misuse.
