Customer Review: W?sthof Gourmet 8-Inch Flexible Fillet Knife
Summary: 2 Stars
I have a number of forged Wusthof knives, and I love them. Until I ordered this knife, I did not know that Wusthof had a line of relatively ..., stamped knives. The difference in quality between this knive and my forged Wusthof knives is significant. I must add, however, that the superior forged knives have prices to match. A forged Wusthof fillet knife would be three times the price.
Description of W?sthof Gourmet 8-Inch Flexible Fillet Knife
This flexible fillet knife moves with you, making it easier to guide it around the fish's head and tail and close to the fish's skeleton for better filleting. Part of W?sthof's Gourmet series of knives, this 8-inch fillet knife is a less expensive version of the knives in the manufacturer's Classic series. Although the blade is still made of high-carbon steel with a stain-resistant alloy, the difference is that the blade is a thinner quality metal and is cut by a precision laser instead of by hand. The blade still has an ideal shape as it is ground and polished by computer to ensure perfect tapering from tip to bolster. Full tangs extend through the synthetic traditional-style handles, which are triple-riveted for strength. This knife is dishwasher-safe but hand washing is recommended to preserve the edge on the blade. The Gourmet series is an excellent alternative for those who want to own quality W?sthof cutlery but are on a budget. --Cristina VaamondeBoning & Fillet Knives
