Wusthof Le Cordon Bleu Knives

Both professional chefs and discriminating home cooks are familiar with the superior performance of Wusthof knives, but Wusthof has surpassed its own high-quality culinary tools with the creation of the Le Cordon Bleu line. This knife collection combines Wusthof's almost 200 years of forging expertise with input from the world-renowned Le Cordon Bleu School of the Culinary Arts in Paris, established in 1895. The result is a knife that looks similar to Wusthofs Classic line but with much-improved features that are aimed to appeal to a high-end, professional customer and home cooking enthusiast alike.

Highlights

Black synthetic handle. Designed for people who prefer lighter knives.

It's Wusthof....

A big and very sharp knife
By J. Gwinn
The problem I was solving was cutting large loaves of thick-crusted bread, for which the Wusthof 8" serrated-edge bread knife I already had just wasn't quite large enough - it's best if the knife edge is at least 1.5 times longer than the loaf is wide. I wanted a knife with a full forged blade with bolster, the traditional pattern, as the stamped-sheet blades aren't quite as good, and I prefer to buy one good knife. Going to 9" was marginal and almost as expensive, so I opted for the full 10" blade. It works very well, and the 8" knife now gets little use.

Oustanding knives worth the money
By J. MACLEAN
I recently became a homeowner and decided a "decent" set of knives was needed. I'm no chef, so I never really tried good knives--old cheap ones were what was available at the places I lived and that's what I used. Now, I can't imagine trying to cook and not using good steal like this! They feel great in my hand and I never struggle to accomplish any task in the kitchen.Buying advice: Amazon sells this set for $299 like everybody else. You can get them for that price almost anywhere. So use a coupon and get a discount from the $299 price elsewhere. I used a 20% off coupon at Bed, Bath & Beyond and ended up getting this great set for $240! I like Amazon but not enough to give them $60 for nothing.EDIT, Jan. 3, 2011: 6 years later, now that this is $350, I would say that after 6 years of use, I am still totally satisfied and would not hesitate to spend $350 to get this today. Although I may upgrade eventually, I have no reason to think these knives won't last a lifetime.

Now this is a knife
By Maria
Until you cut with a Wusthof knife, you cannot comprehend what knives are supposed to perform like. Essentially, these are profoundly heavy straight edge razor blades. Everything they go through melts like butter. Chopping vegetables with them is actually a soothing, zen like experience. I've tried other knives, but none have come close to the precision of Wusthof. The way they feel in your hands, their weight, their amazing balance, is really the mark of flawless German engineering. Think driving a beat up Chevy on a gravel road versus driving a brand new Benz on the autobahn. Get them. Have them professionally sharpened once a year. I guarantee you, if your home goes up in flames, you'll run back in to get them.
