WÜSTHOF Purple Yam Santoku Kullenschliff 17 cm - Santoku knife with a 17 cm blade. It combines German blacksmithing with Asian versatility. The forged blade with a hollow grind and 58 HRC ensures precise, fine cuts. Ergonomic special plastic handle for optimal grip.
The WÜSTHOF Purple Yam Santoku 17 cm fluted edge is an elegant and powerful addition to any kitchen. Inspired by the traditional Japanese knife shape, this Santoku combines proven German blacksmithing with Asian versatility. With its 17 cm long, perfectly balanced blade, it is the ideal tool for the finest cutting work and an indispensable addition for ambitious hobby chefs and professionals.
The forged blade, made of high-quality Solingen stainless steel, features a Rockwell hardness of 58 HRC. This hardness ensures a long-lasting sharpness, while the precisely ground cutting edge offers exceptional cutting performance. The hollow edge – small indentations along the blade – creates fine air pockets when cutting, which reduce the adhesion of soft or moist food. Ingredients such as fish, meat or vegetables glide effortlessly off the blade, enabling particularly fine and clean cuts.
With a blade width of 4.59 cm, the Santoku is wide enough to easily pick up and guide sliced ingredients. Its well-balanced geometry makes it a perfect tool for a wide range of cutting techniques, from rocking movements to precise chopping. It is ideal for cabbage, fish, fruit, salad, herbs, meat, sausage and vegetables – with impressive ease.
The ergonomic handle in the modern Purple Yam colorway is made of sturdy, durable special plastic that is comfortable to hold and offers maximum control when cutting. The three rivets give the handle extra stability and a classic look that blends harmoniously with any kitchen equipment. Made in Solingen, Germany, the WÜSTHOF Purple Yam Santoku stands for premium quality, durability and precision. It is the perfect knife for those who value outstanding cutting performance and a stylish look.
Warnhinweise und Sicherheitsinformationen: Schnittverletzungen: Die häufigste Gefahr bei der Verwendung von Messern ist das Risiko von Schnittverletzungen. Scharfe Klingen können schnell durch Haut und Gewebe dringen. Abrutschen des Messers: Ein unsachgemäßes oder zu starkes Drücken kann dazu führen, dass das Messer abrutscht und unkontrollierte Bewegungen entstehen, die Verletzungen verursachen können. Verletzungen durch Stürze: Messer sollten niemals ungesichert oder in der Nähe von Tischkanten abgelegt werden, um zu verhindern, dass sie herunterfallen und jemanden verletzen. Stumpfe Messer: Stumpfe Messer stellen ein größeres Verletzungsrisiko dar, da sie mehr Kraft erfordern und leichter abrutschen können. Messer sollten daher regelmäßig sachgemäß nachgeschärft werden. Nicht bestimmungsgemäße Nutzung: Das Verwenden eines Messers für Aufgaben, für die es nicht vorgesehen ist (z.B. als Hebelwerkzeug), kann nicht nur die Klinge beschädigen, sondern auch zu Unfällen führen.
Since its founding in 1814 by Johann Abraham Wüsthof, the name WÜSTHOF has stood for uncompromising quality, passionate craftsmanship, and family consistency. Even after more than two centuries, the company is still family-owned—a rare case in today's economy—and continues to manufacture exclusively in Solingen, the world-famous “City of Blades.”
What began as a small scissors workshop in a basement developed over generations into an internationally recognized manufacturer of high-quality knives. Eduard and Robert Wüsthof were particularly influential in this development: Eduard expanded the range to over 1,200 models, while Robert took the courageous step of crossing the Atlantic and successfully established Solingen blades in the USA despite initial difficulties.
WÜSTHOF knives are made where modern precision technology meets deep-rooted craftsmanship – in their hometown of Solingen. While other manufacturers are moving abroad, WÜSTHOF is committed to local manufacturing, sustainable production, and the experience of some of the world's best master blacksmiths. Because true quality takes time, expertise, and passion – no compromises.
The result: knives that impress with their sharpness, balance, and durability and are valued worldwide – whether in professional kitchens or in discerning private households. The trident logo has always stood for the WÜSTHOF philosophy: family values, innovation, and the highest manufacturing standards – from Solingen, for the world.
