WÜSTHOF steel – the essence of sharpness
We use a special knife steel for production: it is corrosion resistant, significantly reduces wear due to its hardness and is easy to resharpen. Our laser-assisted sharpening process also means that the blades offer impressive cutting performance from the get-go.
Our formula for optimum sharpness: X50 Cr MoV 15
| X | Stainless steel | The basic material of our knives |
| 50 | Carbon content | The 0.5% carbon content is important for the hardness and thus also for the sharpness of the knife |
| Cr | Chrome | The additional alloy ensures a particularly high rust resistance in the finished blades |
| Mo | Molybdenum | An alloying element that increases the strength and corrosion resistance of our blades |
| V | Vanadium | Increases strength and toughness to significantly reduce wear |
| 15 | Chromium content | An amount of 15 % |
