Wusthof Classic 6-Inch Utility Knife, Rosemary

Wusthof Classic 6" Utility Knife, Fresh Rosemary is the knife most people do not know they need until they own one. It lives in the gap between paring and chef's — long enough to slice a sandwich or a small roast, light enough to use one-handed over the sink.

Where it earns its slot

Cheese, sausage, apples, tomatoes on the vine, a baguette sandwich, breaking down a chicken breast. Anything where an 8" chef's knife feels like overkill and a 3.5" paring knife runs out of blade. The straight 6" edge is precision forged from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel, hardened to 58 Rockwell, then sharpened by Wusthof's PEtec process for 20% more sharpness with twice the edge retention.

The full bolster is also a finger guard and pulls the balance point back toward your hand. The triple-riveted full-tang handle is finished in Fresh Rosemary — a deep, grounding green from the seven-shade Classic Color collection, inspired by sunlit herb gardens.

Care: wash by hand and towel dry immediately, hone regularly, avoid glass, metal and bamboo boards. Covered by the Wusthof lifetime warranty.
