The Performer chef's knife is a true all-rounder and should not be missing in any kitchen. Its 16 cm long blade cuts through meat, fish, fruits, and vegetables. Additionally, it weighs and chops herbs and can also be used for pressing, shaping, and transporting.

The blades of the Wüsthof Performer series are made from a single piece of chromium-molybdenum-vanadium steel (X50CrMoV15), are laser-cut on both sides, and are then coated with DLC (Diamond-Like-Carbon). This diamond-like carbon layer gives the knives a surface hardness of 104 Rockwell and is ultra-hard. Thanks to the lotus effect, the knife blade glides effortlessly through any food. A standout feature is the unique and striking representation of the trident logo on the 4 cm wide knife blade.

The DLC coating (Diamond-Like-Carbon), an amorphous carbon layer, is three times harder than steel. It is resistant to acids, alkalis, and high temperatures. This carbon layer makes the Wüsthof Performer knife resistant, extremely scratch-resistant, and long-lasting.

The high-quality handle material of the Performer knives is made from glass-fiber reinforced polyamide, and thanks to the non-slip Hexagon Power Grip, the knife fits securely and comfortably in the hand.
