Good to know about WÜSTHOF

WÜSTHOF is a family company now in its seventh generation, and it has produced knives in Solingen, Germany since 1814. The brand is one of the few permitted to use the label "Made in Solingen" on its knives, since Solingen became the only city in the world whose name is a registered trademark in 1938. All forged knives are made with WÜSTHOF’s Precision Edge Technology (PEtec), a computer-controlled, laser-guided method that makes knives 20% sharper with twice the edge retention. The Classic series, introduced over a century ago, is still in production and remains WÜSTHOF’s best-selling knife series. WÜSTHOF knives are exported from Solingen to eighty countries.
