Wusthof Gourmet 7-Inch Offset Handle Bread/Deli Knife

I bought this knife because of a great review in The New York Times. Every word of it is true. You will return to this knife over and over. It will be THE knife that you always reach for.

I got mine here at some super sale, probably a friday sale. I would not usually be able to justify the cost of this knife.

I had never used one, just noticed one in a kitchen someone I know to buy the best of everything.

My family loves a good loaf of crusty bread sliced thin, and this knife is just perfect.

The knife is now two years old, and it cuts bread like it was new. I would guess it will still be years before it will need sharpening.

I have owned on of these knives for 5 years... learned about it when a shadowed a chef in a professional kitchen (I was looking at going to culinary school). This knife stays sharp forever (with and occasional run over a steel) and is perfect for prepping vegetables (anything that can be sliced or diced). The only cutting task this knife is not good for is mincing, since it has a serrated blade (I highly recommend a Wusthof Classic Santuko 7inch for this purpose). Oh and it cuts bread like a champ! I'm on Amazon at this time ordering another... this knife gets so much use in my house it is always dirty.

In reference to the review by "A customer". This knife is the "Gourmet" series, if you like the feel of the "Classic" series, this knife can be purchased in an 8 inch version for a few more dollars. IMHO the Gourmet is fine, because unlike other styles of knives, a serrated knife will eventually wear out if you use a sharpening steel on it (which is necessary to keep it perfectly sharp).

If you enjoy cooking, this knife will become your best friend.

I discovered the joys of offset knives at a knife skills class. There's something to be said for chopping without banging your knuckles on the counter. I've had the knife for years now, and it still cuts well despite never having been sharpened. The blade is excellent for vegetables with a filmy skin, like tomatoes and peppers. But it handles other stuff like carrots and raw meat just fine.
