Our Process

We believe that quality knives can only be made where high-precision production meets traditional artisanship. To this day, every WÜSTHOF knife is still produced in Solingen, Germany.

Our History

Legacy and artisanship have made WÜSTHOF a household name in the culinary realm, and the passion for high-quality craftsmanship has spanned over two hundred years and seven generations. The story of the Wüsthof family and the WÜSTHOF brand is a testament to three key aspects of building a global, intergenerational, and successful family business: heritage, innovation, and adaptability.
