Item Description

Be Culinary Chic With: W&uumlsthof, John Boos & Co. & Freckled Sage Oilcloth Products!

1. Wüsthof Epicure 7-Piece Block Set

New Epicure is a finely edited collection of precision-forged, full tang cutlery that sports a new blade shape with dynamic, modern lines, and an inviting handle design using the same mid-tone, wood composite material found in today’s popular, high-end Epicurean® cutting boards. Ergonomically crafted for optimum comfort, Epicure handles are purposefully sculpted to reduce fatigue, as well as look beautiful in the kitchen. In homage to the signature feature of many Wüsthof cutlery collections, the handle of each Epicure knife is sturdily fastened with two stainless steel rivets. Distinctive in form and function, new Epicure knives feature a translucent ceramic coating on the entire surface of the blade to increase hardness, enhance resistance to corrosion, and protect the blade’s surface from scratches. Additionally, Epicure knives offer a new bolster shape that’s more pronounced to help protect fingers during use, and to ensure that the knives are well balanced with appropriate heft for power and efficiency. The warmth of Epicure’s wood composite handle design contrasts handsomely with the cool energy of the razor-sharp steel blade. The collection’s full-tang construction is partially visible through the length of the handle for a touch of gleaming sleekness and modernity. New Epicure knives include Wüsthof’s exclusive and patented Precision Edge Technology (PEtec). This state-of-the-art, computer controlled method of placing an edge on forged knives increases blade sharpness by 20 percent. Additionally, the perfected edge remains razor-sharp for twice as long. As with all Wüsthof forged cutlery, Epicure knives are crafted from a single piece of an exclusive, high-carbon, stain-resistant alloy that is engineered to enhance edge-retention and facilitate re-sharpening. The steel used has a hardness of approximately 58 on the Rockwell hardness scale. All Wüsthof knives are fully guaranteed to be free of defects in craftsmanship.
