About Wusthof

Many people are surprised to discover that, after over 200 years, the Wusthof company remains in family hands.

Equally unusual is the fact that they have stayed loyal to the City of Blades, and still produce their forged knives only in Solingen, Germany.

They believe that quality knives can only be made where high-precision production meets traditional artisanship, and for that there is no place like home.
