Wusthof knives are classic -sturdy, well made, retain their edge and easy to hone or sharpen. A wonderful knife with a myriad of uses, I am happy with this new addition to my other Wusthof knives.I have used many knives over the past 35 years and was introduced to these knives by a German Neuropathologist. For me, Each knife lasts about 5 to 6 years before it is ground down too much in my experience. For a home owner would much longer. One to two times a week I sharpen them with Arkansas stones and then strop them. They hold an edge that would shave hair. I am switching over to Japanese stones as will give an even better edge. The steel is of excellent quality. The handles hold up to washing in a diswasher or autoclave. I have bought the knives with Ikon handles for my daughter. They are slightly easier to clean.
