Junior chef's knife pink

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.
