  I have owned Wusthof knives for years and years. I have no other line of cooking knives in my home. I purchased this 5" serrated utility knife to replace my Wusthof Tomato knife. The 5" blade is perfect for use in slicing things like hard rolls, tomatoes, fruit breads, etc. Any thing you need the serrated edge to go through, but not the 8 or 9" long blade. Extremely sharp but will require a professional to sharpen because of the serration. If you run it through a regular electric home knife sharpener, you will damage the blade. The sharpening steel for Wusthof doesn't do the job either.

  I love the size of this knife! Not too big and cuts great. My last one broke after a few years (was really weird, the blade just snapped off the handle). I ordered this one right away because I use it so much!!

• Thomas

  Arrived quickly and packaged nicely in original manufacturers box. Extremely sharp!

  Sharp, very sharp.....excellent for tomatoes or cutting a BLT in half......love Wusthoff knives....I've bought several, mostly from Westhoff direct....Amazon doesn't carry the whole line.....but I go to Amazon first and if I can't find it I jump over to Westhoff, delivery is about the same..

  Oh man, what a joy this is to use. It's small but not too small, lightweight but solid, sharp as heck, nicely balanced and comfortable for smaller hands. I'm a vegetarian and use knives only for fruits and vegetables; this one is perfect for tomatoes, citrus fruits, cukes, etc. For bigger veggies, onions and potatoes I use the awesome Wusthof 6" utility knife. I'm a pretty serious cook but (stupidly) have never invested in good knives until now. If you have just these two knives you'll find yourself using them 90% of the time. Well worth the investment.

  My daughter- in- law requested this for Christmas after using mine while visiting. Always a great investment! I love buying presents that will last forever.

  I loved this knife for many years since receiving it as a gift and just purchased this one for my sister. She Loves it too. Slices slippery tomatoes easily. Cut bread or sandwiches with ease. It’s my go to knife so often that I leave it out!

  This is by far my go-to kitchen knife, so worth the expense to me. The knife has remained sharp after at least 2 years. The wood handle is attractive and has held up so far with little maintenance. As recommended, I don't leave it lying in water or put it in the dishwasher. Just wash the blade off and wipe the handle dry each time.

  This knife is so versatile. I reach for it for cutting everything. Cutting bagels, block cheese, does a beautiful job cutting tomatoes, cutting London broil, steaks and more. This is a great knife!

  I have been collecting these over the past few years. All my other knives are never used anymore
