Reader Reviews
No, it's not Wustoff. But Chicago cutlery is an amazing deal for the money. My Great uncle knew knives, and these impressed him. They're a combination of carbon and stainless, apparently- don't rust but will hone and sharpen nicely. I have several of this brand, Some Calphalon, some old full carbon steel, one wusthoff. The Chicago knives are what I reach for first. This particular knife is the most used in my kitchen- it does an awful lot! Maybe it's just my hand but if I had to pick one knife for the desert island this would be it. You do need to hone these knives properly every time you use them- but that's true of all kitchen knives. If there's any weakness in the Chicago Cutlery it's the edge getting warped easily, but hey, even fancy German steel needs honing. So save a C note.
