Williams-Sonoma worked closely with legendary German knife-maker Wusthof to bring you kitchen knives like no other. The flowing, dynamic lines of our innovative Wusthof Precision collection give the knives a bold, contemporary look, while the seamless transition from handle to bolster to blade results in maximum comfort during use. High-carbon stainless-steel blades and a double-bolster design deliver professional-level performance and satisfying heft. Perfect set with all of the essentials, includes three knives, kitchen shears, a honing steel and a hardwood block for countertop storage Double-bolster design provides exceptional balance. Bolster's smooth transition from handle to blade allows for an unlimited variety of cutting grips.

Slightly oversized blade provides plenty of power for fast, efficient cutting. Beautifully contoured, ergonomic handle is made of a durable, moisture-resistant synthetic.
