Wüsthof Gourmet 6-Piece Steak Knife Set
For a table of six, the Wüsthof Gourmet 6-piece steak knife set gives every guest a 4.5-inch knife with a straight edge. Gourmet knives are laser cut from one piece of steel, the way Wüsthof makes its non-forged lines, and they carry black handles with three rivets.Customers ask us for non-serrated steak knives, and this is a set Wüsthof confirms has a straight edge. That edge leaves a neat face on a steak or a pork chop, and you can hone and sharpen it at home on the tools you use for your kitchen knives. Serrations keep cutting longer between sharpenings, a reason restaurants choose them. At home, a few strokes on a honing steel before dinner keeps a straight edge ready.If you prefer the heft of a forged knife with a bolster, compare the Classic 6-piece steak knife set. All six fit the 6-slot steak knife block on the counter or in a cabinet. The Gourmet 4-piece steak knife set suits a smaller table. Our kitchen knife shapes guide explains how steak knives differ from paring and utility knives. Learn More$204.95 -
Wüsthof Gourmet 4-Piece Steak Knife Set
Straight edges and laser-cut blades make Wüsthof’s Gourmet 4-piece steak knife set a non-serrated choice for four. It is the smaller version of the Gourmet 6-piece set and uses the same knife design with a riveted black handle.If you are deciding whether non-serrated steak knives are right for you, consider what you serve. A straight edge glides through tender beef and roast pork and leaves neat slices, and it can be maintained in your own kitchen. A serrated knife suits a cook who never sharpens, since its teeth keep biting after the edge wears. With a hand-held sharpener or a steel in the drawer, a straight edge is the better match.Gourmet knives are made without forging, which keeps them light in the hand at the table. For forged steak knives, see the Classic 4-piece set, or the Classic Ikon 4-piece set with its curved handle. Six guests call for the Gourmet 6-piece steak knife set, which has two more of the same knife, and a 6-slot block stores either set. See our knife shapes page for more on blade styles.
